Changelog

Full release. Now with support for different dynamic light plugins aswell as some visual and performance improvements.

[1.0.0] - 2024-08-09

Added

• Plugin support: Embeddium/Rubidium Dynamic Lights
• Plugin support: Lucent

Changed

• API adjustments (tweaked ILightSource interface, replaced BlockLightSource with EntityLightSource)
• Default configuration (also see fix "Config inconsistencies")
• Light system: light is now rendered on clients only (light distribution is server-side and defined by light entities)

Fixed

• Config inconsistencies: moved all configurations to server config (located at .minecraft/saves/<level_name>/serverconfig/powered_flashlight-server.toml or create a default config for all new worlds at .minecraft/defaultconfigs)
• Light affecting the world (e.g. allowing crops to grow). This is not possible anymore since light is now client-side only. Apart from that this feature was never intended.
• Other minor bugs and performance bottlenecks

[0.10.0-beta] - 2024-03-21

Added

• API to give other modders access to the light and raycasting system

Fixed

• Warnings spamming the log on startup

[0.9.1-beta] - 2024-02-26

Fixed

• Project structure: 'easier' maintenance for multiple minecraft versions

[0.9.0-beta] - 2024-01-24

Added
