TOBI's Waypoints v1.5.0 — Major Update

This update brings major improvements to waypoint rendering, multiplayer compatibility, deathpoints, and optional Waystones integration!

Client-First Multiplayer Support

• Personal waypoints now work on public multiplayer servers without requiring TOBI's Waypoints to be installed server-side.
• Create, edit, delete, track, and save waypoints locally.
• Waypoints are stored separately for each world and multiplayer server.
• Existing singleplayer waypoints are safely migrated to the new storage system.
• Waypoint sharing, visibility settings, and preferences remain supported.
• Teleportation continues to respect server permissions.

Automatic Deathpoint Improvements

• Deathpoints are now created and managed client-side.
• Added optional automatic deathpoint removal when returning to your death location.
• Includes safeguards to prevent accidental removal immediately after respawning.
• Deathpoint names now use 12-hour AM/PM timestamps.
• Prevents duplicate deathpoints and preserves existing saved markers.

Optional Waystones Integration

• Automatically imports Waystones discovered or activated by the player.
• Imported Waystones appear in their own waypoint group.
• Prevents duplicate imports.
• Deleted imported markers stay deleted instead of reappearing.
• Added an option to enable or disable automatic Waystone importing.
• Waystones and Balm are optional dependencies. TOBI's Waypoints works without them.

Smoother Waypoint Rendering

• Fixed jittery, frame-stepped world labels during camera movement.
• World labels now update every rendered world frame rather than relying on a slower HUD callback.
• Preserved waypoint icons, backgrounds, text, and distance indicators.
• Preserved through-block visibility and existing waypoint rendering distance.
• Improved compatibility with heavily modded rendering environments.
• Added optional F3-triggered frame diagnostics, saved to logs/tobis-waypoints-v19-frame-counters.csv.

Visual Improvements

• Improved flat waypoint icons and their consistency.
• Improved label readability and beacon overlay presentation.
• Preserved Tall Marker beacon behavior without unnecessarily raising waypoint labels.

Compatibility

• Minecraft 1.20.1
• Forge 47.4+
• Java 17
• Client-side personal waypoint functionality does not require server installation.
• Waystones integration requires compatible Waystones functionality on both client and server.
• Smooth world-label movement verified in a heavily modded Forge environment with VSync enabled. Shader-pack compatibility has not yet been verified.

Thank you for using TOBI's Waypoints and supporting its development!
