What's new
Arcana 0.1.46
Server performance
- Much less server work per player: each player's magic sync no longer rebuilds the whole spell book list and rescans their inventory for every book, and players are synced on staggered ticks instead of all at once. On a busy server this was the largest part of Arcana's cost.
- Feather Fall, Water Walk and buff effect lookups are cached instead of repeated for every creature every tick.
- Time Stop, block disguises and summon despawn rules skip their per-creature checks when nothing on the server needs them.
No gameplay changes: books, buffs and spells behave exactly as before.
Updating
Requires Minecraft 1.21.1 / NeoForge 21.1.232+ and Java 21. Replace the main Arcana JAR on both the server and clients, keeping only one version installed. Existing worlds and player data are retained; dependencies are unchanged.
The current Alex's Mobs Compatibility 0.1.3, Ice and Fire Compatibility 0.1.3 and Lootr Compatibility 0.1.1 remain separate optional add-ons. Sky-castle dungeons remain deferred and disabled.
