Paradigm 2.5.1

Vanish

• Reworked /vanish to hide players from the world and TAB list, including their equipment and nameplates.
• Staff with paradigm.vanish.see can still see vanished players. Visibility updates when their permissions change.
• Hidden players are excluded from Paradigm's public player lists, name suggestions, nearby-player results, and public online counts.
• Vanished players no longer trigger public join and leave messages or Discord join and leave notifications.
• Improved restoration of saved Vanish preferences when players reconnect, and visibility cleanup during reloads and module disable.
• Vanish leaves players' gamemodes, God mode, and existing invisibility effects alone.

Fixes and improvements

• Explicitly denied permissions now take priority over operator fallback permissions.
• Fixed Dashboard permission checks for moderation actions and starting the Dashboard. Queued changes also respect permissions revoked before they run.
• Announcement and restart schedule changes made through the Dashboard now take effect without leaving old schedules running.
• Fixed /sethome accidentally changing a player's first-join information or playtime.
• Improved playtime saving and recovery after crashes or failed saves, and prevented servers sharing a database from overwriting each other's player updates.
• Improved handling of failed saves for administration preferences, including Vanish and God mode.
• Disabling God mode's module now removes its active protection correctly.
• Modules that fail to start can be retried without creating duplicate tasks or listeners.
• Improved random teleport safety checks around hazards, blocked spaces, and world borders.
• Fixed area checks at negative and fractional coordinates on Forge 1.18.2 and 1.19.2.
• Fixed normal and renamed-player join message suppression on Fabric.
• Fixed Fabric command handling to respect Minecraft's security checks, and improved chat and disconnect handling to avoid threading errors.
• Fixed namespaced and modded item names on older Fabric versions.
• Improved nested text formatting and centered messages.
• Fixed TAB compatibility on Forge 1.18.2, 1.19.2, and 1.20.1, along with hologram compatibility on Forge 1.20.1.

Forge 1.7.10

• Updated legacy Vanish so ordinary players cannot see hidden staff, while staff with the visibility permission retain access.
• Improved Vanish handling during login, reconnects, dimension changes, and TAB updates.
• Hidden players are also filtered from the vanilla player list and public server-list information.
• Fixed chat formatting, colors, clickable and hover text, and MOTD line breaks.
• Improved player-name completion and compatibility for menus and hologram interactions.
• Updated the development setup for the supported GTNH/RFB environment on modern Java.

Known limitations

• Vanish does not block item pickup, pressure plates, or vanilla death messages. Other mods may still expose player information through their own features.
