CHANGELOG

Changelog

1.2.3

  • The portal window has Save and Cancel buttons at the bottom, in the game's own button style; Enter and Esc still work and are noted next to them.

1.2.2

  • A portal can be public, with no owner: pick "— public, no owner —" in the owner list of its window. The wheel, the portal's title and its map mark then say "public" instead of a name; public portals come right after your own in the wheel. Versions before 1.2.2 show such a portal with an unknown owner.

1.2.1

  • Favourite portal is now chosen per portal: in a portal's window (Shift + E) pick any other portal from the list, and the wheel at this portal starts on it, marked with a star. "— none —" clears it. Only yours.
  • The owner can be changed by anyone who may edit the portal (not under someone else's ward), like its name.
  • The server also learns player names from beds, wards and tombstones in the world, so owners who have not joined since the update still show by name.

1.2.0

  • Own palette: next to the nine quick colours there is a palette with any colour (a square, a hue strip and the colour code) and your ten recent colours. Once you pick a colour there, the palette button takes it.
  • Favourite portal: star a portal in its window (Shift + E), and the wheel at every other portal starts on it.
  • Every portal remembers where you last went from it: at the favourite itself, or when you have no favourite, the wheel starts there. The favourite and this memory are yours only; other players have their own.
  • A portal under someone else's ward: its window opens, but only the star can be changed.
  • A small swirl in the corner of a map mark tells a portal mark from marks you placed yourself.
  • Server and all players must update together: older versions show own-palette colours as white.

1.1.0

  • The list is now a wheel around the crosshair: five portals visible, the chosen one right of the crosshair, smooth turning, a soft shadow along the wheel.
  • Portal window on Shift + E: name, owner, icon (recent icons and all icons of the game with search) and colour.
  • Owners: whoever built a portal owns it and can hand it over. Your portals come first in the wheel, then other players' portals grouped by owner.
  • Portals are marked on the map with their icon, colour and name; pointing at a mark shows the owner. With ParchmentMap the marks appear on a parchment at a cartography table.
  • Server and all players must update together (the list format changed).

1.0.0

  • First release. Portals keep no destination and no pairs. Look at a portal: the list of every other portal in the world appears next to the crosshair. Pick one with the mouse wheel (gamepad: d-pad left/right) and press the use key to travel. Shift + use names the portal.
  • The server keeps the list of all portals and sends it to players when it changes.
  • The game's own pairing of portals with the same name is turned off; walking into a portal does nothing.
