Dynamic Lights executes >100k commands/tick and hits 65,536 command limit console spam

[DelMiiYa]

Describe the bug

Dynamic Lights is causing extreme command load on my Minecraft 1.21.8 server.
The datapack repeatedly executes tens of thousands of commands per tick, causing console spam and lag

: Command execution stopped due to limit (executed 65536 commands)

i have included the /perf profiling

profiling.txt

Steps to reproduce

1. Install Dynamic Lights

2. Have multiple entities in loaded chunks (players, mobs, items)

3. Let the server run for several minutes

4. Observe profiler output and console warnings

Expected behavior

The datapack should limit recursion or entity scans so it does not exceed command-per-tick safeguards or overwhelm the scheduler

Additional context

Minecraft version: 1.21.8

Server: Purpur

Dynamic Lights version: v1.9

Thank you for the report! Dynamic Lights already limits entity scans (see #84), but based on this report, I will have to restrict them further. Unfortunately, there is no direct way for me to detect how much recursion budget I have left.
In the meantime, you can increase the limit using the command /gamerule maxCommandChainLength <int> (or /gamerule max_command_sequence_length <int> if you're on 1.21.11)

I've now reduced the non-player entity cap from 1000 to 750, this should make this occurrence rarer
