LootRun 1.0.8 focuses on custom-map authoring, multiplayer consistency, extraction reliability, and compatibility fixes reported after 1.0.7.

• Added a custom hideout template system.
• Added a hideout selection tool with an in-world selection preview.
• Added a hideout spawn marker for choosing the player arrival position.
• Custom hideout tools are available from the Tools & Utilities creative tab.
• Added dynamic loot-table selection for custom-map loot chests.
• Sneak-right-click a registered custom-map chest to open the loot-table picker.
• The picker automatically discovers loaded chest loot tables from vanilla, data packs, and installed mods.
• Added search by loot-table name, mod name, namespace, or full resource ID.
• Added a per-custom-map game-mode option with Survival and Adventure choices.
• Custom-map editor sessions still use Creative mode regardless of the raid game-mode setting.

• Each placed loot chest now stores its own selected loot table.
• Loot-table choices are persisted in the custom-map manifest and restored in raid instances.
• Only loot tables under loot_tables/chests/ are shown, preventing entity, block, fishing, and unrelated reward tables from appearing in the picker.
• Added server-side validation for loot-table selection packets, including editor state, distance, registered chest position, and loaded table checks.
• Existing custom maps default to Survival mode and remain compatible.
• Players entering Adventure-mode maps can interact with the map normally without breaking protected structures.
• The player's previous game mode is restored after extraction, raid failure, death return, reconnect recovery, or any other return to the hideout.
• Custom-map spawn selection now respects the active world border.
• Improved custom-map task placement so configured task counts are replenished instead of silently shrinking when an initial location cannot be used.

• Pack authors can select and save a custom hideout structure directly in game.
• The saved hideout is applied once per world instead of repeatedly restoring terminals or blocks to old fixed positions.
• Moving terminals or decorating the hideout no longer causes the original template positions to respawn on the next load.
• Added /lootrun hideout reset to remove the custom template and restore the default hideout.

• Fixed clients receiving incomplete generated-price data and disagreeing about whether the same item can be sold.
• Clients now wait for the server's generated-price synchronization to complete before finalizing the trade catalog.
• The server now sends an explicit completion packet even when the generated-price map is empty.
• Updated the network protocol for the new custom-map fields and loot-table picker packets.
• All players connecting to the same server must use LootRun 1.0.8.

• Fixed insured held weapons being moved to the global stash after a successful extraction.
• Fixed successful extraction removing the insurance state from insured player-owned items.
• Insured items that remain with the player now preserve their insurance data correctly.
• Fixed raid-failure returns leaving players slowed, unable to jump, flying, downed, or otherwise unable to move in the hideout.
• Failure return cleanup now runs after the player actually arrives in the hideout.
• Improved PlayerRevive cleanup for bleed-out, give-up, and unresolved downed states.

• Fixed the End dragon return portal being bypassed by the cross-dimension travel configuration.
• Added a dimension-change settlement fallback for the first End poem transition.
• Fixed returning players remaining suspended in the air when they entered the return portal while flying.
• Improved compatibility with custom dimensions and teleport flows that return players through a nonstandard dimension transition.

• Fixed custom-map loot chests appearing empty when another mod's global loot modifier expected a block-state context.
• LootRun now generates custom chest contents with origin, block state, and block entity context before the chest is opened.
• Fixed an invalid ALL_PARAMS loot context that could require combat-only parameters and crash the server during raid preparation.
• SearchCarefully compatibility remains available for generated custom-map chest contents.

• Fixed raids sometimes starting with fewer active tasks than the five tasks selected in the terminal.
• Failed initial task-point placement no longer permanently removes the task from the raid display.
• Improved task recovery and placement behavior for flat or restricted custom maps.
• Existing no-location tasks continue to show objective progress instead of remaining on the loading label.

• Replace lootrun-1.0.7.jar with lootrun-1.0.8.jar on both the client and server.
• Do not mix 1.0.7 and 1.0.8 clients or servers because the network protocol has changed.
• Existing worlds, player data, trade settings, tasks, custom maps, and custom-map markers are preserved.
• Existing custom maps use Survival mode until changed in the map information editor.
• Existing registered loot chests keep their saved loot-table IDs.
• Back up the world and LootRun configuration before updating a production server.

• Open the map terminal in edit mode and edit a custom map's information to switch its raid game mode between Survival and Adventure.
• Enter custom-map edit mode and place a loot chest with the custom-map loot chest tool.
• Sneak-right-click the registered chest to open the searchable loot-table picker.
• Select any loaded table from a loot_tables/chests/ directory to assign it to that chest.
• Use the hideout template tool to select the custom hideout bounds and place the hideout spawn marker before saving the template.
• Use /lootrun hideout reset if the custom hideout must be removed and the default hideout restored.
