Instant World Mirror 1.4.0 Beta

This public Beta adds the Stranded Mirror cross-save workflow, persistent-world backups, and the Heaven Mirror Superflat enchantment matrix. Both supported Minecraft versions use the same player-facing behavior.

Stranded Mirror

  • Added the Stranded Mirror for capturing named world slices and reopening them from other saves.
  • Unified persistent mirror worlds and cross-save world slices in the long-term world menu.
  • Added independent numbered backups for world slices and persistent mirror worlds.
  • Backups preserve block entities, supported entities, distant modified chunks, item data, names, and enchantments without changing the source.
  • Added one-way Minecraft 1.20.1 to 1.21.1 slice upgrades using Minecraft DataFixer validation.
  • Newer slices remain blocked on 1.20.1, and missing mod content fails safely instead of silently becoming air.
  • Fixed the slice-opening flow so success closes the complete menu and a rejected open keeps the selection screen usable.

Heaven Mirror Superflat

  • Added the Superflat enchantment exclusively for Heaven Mirror.
  • No enchantments: creates the normal temporary copied Heaven world.
  • Superflat only: creates a temporary Superflat Heaven world.
  • Permanence only: retains the normal temporary copied world and existing persistent-save workflow.
  • Permanence plus Superflat: retains the normal temporary copied world and adds one automatic persistent Superflat world.
  • Reusing the double-enchanted mirror does not create duplicate automatic Superflat records.
  • Superflat platforms use grass, two dirt layers, and bedrock.

Persistent Worlds

  • Added backup controls to the persistent list and in-world management menu.
  • Persistent records retain their terrain mode and recover safely after interrupted copies.
  • Generated persistent records no longer store a fake temporary-session identifier; existing records remain compatible.
  • A persistent source cannot be deleted while one of its backups is still copying.
