Updates & improvements

Game updates, plugin versions and improvements to our interface with a traceable history.

Recorded, available and installed are different states. Your actual installation status and suitable updates are shown in the server panel.

Notes on these entries

Announcement from the official source. The source describes the changes; your server installation status is shown separately in the update center.

The editor describes new or changed values. The field comparison shows the original defaults, constraints and explanations before and after this documented change.

The guided tools were revised in the shared panel code. The entry concerns the interface or its processing. The date records the change; availability on an individual server depends on the game, software, plugins and permissions.

No independent plugin compatibility test is documented for the game updates on this page unless a plugin says otherwise. Check affected plugins in the update center before changing game versions.
