Ars 'n Spells

Ars 'n Spells 3.4.1

This update fixes several issues with spell uninscription, improves compatibility with Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks, and expands support for addon spells, custom configurations, and higher spell levels.

What's New and Improved

• Fixed Spell Uninscription (#14): Spells can now be properly unbound from spellbooks without the ritual incorrectly detecting the book itself as another spell source. Existing spells, book names, and capacities are preserved.
• Improved Iron's Spells compatibility: Imported glyphs now properly respect the server's spell settings, including maximum levels, spell schools, learning requirements, and restrictions.
• Expanded spell levels: Imported spells now support levels up to 10, allowing servers with increased spell level limits to use stronger glyphs. Higher levels remain unavailable until enabled by the server.
• Fixed Amplify behavior: Amplify now respects the server's configured maximum spell level and correctly prevents casts that would exceed it, without consuming resources.
• Improved spell bonuses: Equipment, Curios, and other effects that modify spell levels or casting costs now work correctly with imported glyphs. Spell costs and bonuses are applied consistently.
• Expanded addon spell support: Additional Iron's Spells addons can now provide their own glyph catalogs, making it easier to support more spells without requiring changes to the main mod.
• Improved Glyph Press: Fixed catalyst handling, including recipes that don't require catalysts and custom catalysts added by datapacks. Also fixed Source refunds when cancelling jobs and improved reliability during reloads.
• Safer spell casting: Fixed issues involving interrupted casts, dimension changes, disconnects, and spell effects failing unexpectedly. Casting now handles resource costs, cooldowns, and cleanup more reliably.
• Better datapack customization: Expanded options for customizing individual spells, spell levels, conversion requirements, and restrictions, with improved validation and clearer error messages.
• Improved glyph preservation: Previously available glyphs now retain their identities even when addons or spell catalogs change, helping protect existing spellbooks and saved worlds.
• Improved JEI integration: Glyph Press recipes now refresh correctly after datapack reloads without displaying outdated or duplicate recipes.
• New troubleshooting commands: Added /ans glyph report, /ans glyph explain, /ans glyph validate, and /ans glyph last to help players and server administrators understand spell restrictions, diagnose casting issues, and check configurations.

Additional Improvements

Numerous fixes and improvements have been made to spell conversion, server synchronization, resource handling, addon compatibility, configuration validation, and overall stability.

Ars 'n Spells now works more consistently with Iron's Spells settings, supports a wider range of addon spells, and offers a more reliable spellcasting experience.

Important: Both clients and servers must update to version 3.4.1 because of network changes.
