Clicker inactive when no mob in sight with mob mode set to "false"

[DrKasango]

Minecraft 1.21.4, Fabric
mod version 21.1.1

Mob mode is set to false, clicker is activated, but does not click when there are no mobs (or blocks) within reach (works as it should when mobs/blocks are present), in fact, being the behaviour expected from mob mode.

Same on Fabric 1.21.7, mod version 21.6.0
