7.0.0 - Clusterio Plugin (Beta)

Change Log:

Clusterio

This release marks the first official release of the scenario as a native Clusterio plugin, compatible with alpha 27 and above. The project has undergone a substantial architectural overhaul, moving away from the standalone scenario towards a modular plugin-based architecture.

To maintain the same functionality as previous releases, both the Scenario and Legacy plugins must be installed and enabled. The Scenario plugin contains the new framework and migrated modules, while the Legacy plugin continues to provide features that have not yet been migrated.

Although the migration is not yet fully complete, the project has now reached a stable milestone suitable for release. Future releases will continue moving functionality from the Legacy plugin into the Scenario plugin until the Legacy plugin is no longer required.

These plugins can be installed using: npm i @expcluster/scenario @expcluster/legacy
