✨ What's Changed

Configuration Cleanup

Removed config options that were non-functional due to Minecraft limitations:

  • allow_mob_attacks - always blocked (mobs don't target players with mayfly=true)
  • allow_block_breaking - always blocked in ADVENTURE mode
  • allow_block_placing - always blocked in ADVENTURE mode
  • auto_hide_hud - behavior now hard-coded (always hides, F1 toggles)
  • allow_f1_hud_toggle - F1 toggle always enabled
  • auto_start_flying - players must double-tap spacebar (ADVENTURE mode limitation)

Documentation Updates

  • ✅ Clarified that enable_invulnerability does NOT prevent fall damage (Minecraft engine behavior)
  • ✅ Updated all wiki pages with accurate information
  • ✅ Renamed "Known Issues" to "Known Limitations" with proper context
  • ✅ Added clear explanations of Minecraft engine limitations vs actual bugs

Code Improvements

  • ✅ Cleaned up ModConfig.java - removed unused config variables
  • ✅ Updated SpectatorMod.java - hard-coded HUD behavior
  • ✅ Updated ClientEventHandler.java - simplified HUD management
  • ✅ Generated config file now clean and accurate

📝 Migration from v1.1.0-beta

If upgrading from 1.1.0-beta, your existing config will continue to work. The removed options will simply be ignored. No action required - the mod will use correct behavior regardless of old config values.

🔧 Current Features

  • ✅ Configurable spectator mode with flight
  • ✅ Distance limits (default: 75 blocks, configurable)
  • ✅ Dimension travel restrictions
  • ✅ Customizable interaction controls (PvP, items, crafting)
  • ✅ Block interaction whitelist (doors, trapdoors, gates by default)
  • ✅ Permission system (configurable command access levels)
  • ✅ HUD auto-hide with F1 toggle
  • ✅ Full multiplayer support

🐛 Known Limitations

These are Minecraft engine limitations, not bugs:

  • Fall damage always prevented when mayfly=true (Minecraft core behavior)
  • Players must double-tap spacebar to fly (ADVENTURE mode limitation)
  • Block breaking/placing always blocked in ADVENTURE mode (GameMode restriction)
