Thanks to everyone who joined since Monday night’s opening, and thanks for your reports. Here’s what we fixed in three days. The launcher installs updates on its own: just restart it.

Versions
7.1.39 → 7.1.42
Since
Mon, Oct 26

The big ones

7.1.40

Crafting no longer destroys your items

A conflict with Curios could make whatever you placed in the inventory crafting grid disappear.

Distant Horizons

The server no longer crashes

A thread leak eventually brought it down. Background world generation no longer pauses in a loop either.

7.1.42

No more wrongful bans

The proxy no longer bans players by mistake, and connection counting holds up when many people join at once.

Connection and launcher

  • The Play button now goes through the proxy (7.1.42).
  • During maintenance, the title screen no longer shows the server as “incompatible”, and a maintenance notice appears on screen (7.1.40).
  • The connection copes better with latency.

Interface

  • Tabs you close stay closed (7.1.42).
  • The recipe book search clears when you leave a table (7.1.41).
  • Switching universe now takes a 3-second hold: no more accidental switches (7.1.40).
  • Collection: steps scroll and stay in their column.
  • Sodium and Iris options only show up when those mods are installed.

Small displays

These screens now fit the window: My Quests, Progress, the profile, gallery, Codex, shop, gifts, jukebox, night screen and waypoints. Fonts stay sharp at half scales.

Other fixes

  • The chat bubble in boats
  • Shooting stars
  • The teammate display
  • Borderless fullscreen
  • The display editor
  • Shift+drag in the inventory
  • Signs
  • Bag tabs

Shop and cosmetics

  • Remove now takes the hat off your head.
  • Shop announcements only show once.

World and map

  • The Scribble lectern works again (7.1.42).
  • The map loads even when the server is under heavy load.
  • Structures are loaded as soon as the server starts.

Smoothness

  • Less stutter, shadows tuned to your machine, and a lighter Distant Horizons (7.1.41).
  • Particles no longer drop to “minimal”, and Iris no longer reloads mid-game.
