Helpful Commands

A new major update is here! The mod has been fully rewritten once again, this time using official mappings.

Helpful Commands 4 brings new features, improved LuckPerms integration, more flexible permission control, and many other enhancements.

✨ Redesigned command list, configuration, and other menus

The command list now looks much nicer. There is a separate button for controlling the command state, and the command description is now hidden in a tooltip. It also displays all command usages.

As for configuration, you can now easily reset each config field to its default value. If LuckPerms is present, you will also be able to copy the meta ID if the config field supports it.

🪪 More flexible permission control

You can set permissions for individual arguments and define who can use commands on other players. For example, to use the /fly command on another player, you now need helpful_commands.command.fly.others (Fabric)/command.fly.others (NeoForge) permission.

🍀 LuckPerms Meta

You can override certain config fields with LuckPerms Meta. For instance, you can enable certain groups or players to create up to 10 homes while restricting others to 5.

💬 Improved command output

You will notice that the tooltips are now better organized, and the translations have been improved as well.

🌀 Warps

You can create warps now! Players can teleport to them or view information about them. Each warp can have a description.

🏠 Homes

Now, you can have more than one home. The home limit is configurable, and with LuckPerms meta, you can allow certain players or groups to have more homes.

➡️ TP requests

Send TP requests to other players by using the /tpr command. You can even add a comment if you want.

⏱️ Cooldowns

Configurable cooldowns are here! And, of course, they support LuckPerms meta.

• home_tp_cooldown: The cooldown time after teleporting to a home before the player can teleport again (in seconds)
• tpr_request_cooldown_on_accepted: The cooldown time before a player can send another teleport request after one is accepted (in seconds)
• tpr_request_cooldown_on_cancel: The cooldown time before a player can send another teleport request after cancelling one (in seconds)

🆕 New commands

• /smelt: Smelt/cook an item in player's main hand
• /warp: Manage, query, or teleport to warps
• /coords: Query, share, or broadcast player's coordinates
• /fireball: Launch a fireball
• /tpr: Make, accept, deny, cancel teleport requests

🆕 New config fields

• max_homes: The maximum number of homes that each player can have
• tpr_request_timeout: The amount of time the receiving player has to respond to a teleport request before it expires (in seconds)
• fireball_power_limit: The maximum power allowed for the /fireball command. Higher values are destructive and may cause lag
• home_tp_cooldown, tpr_request_cooldown_on_accepted, tpr_request_cooldown_on_cancel (already talked about them in "Cooldowns")

📃 Other changes

• NeoForge support 🦊
• /back command renamed to /deathpos
• /hc commandList is now /hc commands
• All config permissions now sit under helpful_commands.command.hc.config.* (Fabric)/command.hc.config.* (NeoForge)
• /hc cooldowns command to manage active cooldowns
• Add info slot to /invsee inventory UI: one of the empty slots was replaced with a slot containing an Enchanted Book that displays useful information about the five lower slots
• Log the amount of homes, warps, and active cooldowns when the server starts. Also print current platform

❌ Removed Restricted/Unrestricted(Public) command state

Please use LuckPerms to manage server permissions.

❗ Important

• Helpful Commands 4 is not compatible with your old Helpful Commands 3 configuration. You will need to reconfigure the mod
• All permission IDs have changed. You will need to update your permissions in LuckPerms
• Your old home point is not compatible with the new /home command

Those should be all of the main changes. The 4.0.0 documentation is already available and will help you with the initial setup. Thank you for using Helpful Commands!
