Mixin failures

Critical injection failure — a mixin could not find its target

What the log looks like

invalidinjectionexception
critical injection failure
injectionerror
@inject annotation on [\w$]+ could not find any targets

How to fix it

  1. Two mods are usually fighting over the same game method
  2. The mixin config prefix names the mod — update it first
  3. If it only happens with another specific mod installed, that is a mod conflict
