Changelog

Unreleased

2.1.9

• Interactive in-world visits can now be almost any species, not only the four schooling fish. Each species arrives in its own way: alone, as a pair, a loose group or a school. Rare and large fish usually come alone, and a visit only forms in water big enough for its species.
• Crabs and other floor dwellers take a bobber from the bottom, jellyfish drift over to it, and garden eels take one cast over their burrow but duck if you sprint at them.
• A visit arriving near you sends a few silent ripples across the surface, and creatures that barely move still sparkle in their quality's colour.

2.1.8

• Interactive fish schools now have a 50% encounter chance per region every five minutes.

2.1.7

• Added interactive fish schools. Catchable members approach nearby bobbers and can be caught through the regular fishing minigame. Catching one removes it from the shared school.
• School fish keep their quality, shown by the animated mote trail; bite movement and effects have been polished.
• Added the coelacanth and one free quest-shop reroll per in-game day.
• Reworked the fish encyclopedia and quest book with improved small-window layouts, keyboard navigation, and narrator support. Tutorial help is optional and available from the pause menu.
• Cosmetic placement works on any grid cell with enough room and targets the tank sand so kelp does not obscure placement.

2.1.3

• Release jars no longer bundle the development self-test harness.

2.1.2

Fixed companion and message issues found in review.

• A reconnecting player's companion party is now announced to players already on the server.
• Forge no longer logs "Unknown custom packet payload" warnings for Fishtastic messages.
• Celebration rays no longer draw over notification banners.

2.1.1

Fixed Gelatin UI being treated as optional: all loaders now report it as a required dependency, and CurseForge installs it as a required dependency.

2.1.0

Added ambient fish, companions, and interactive fish tank cosmetic decorations
