VanaTell 0.3.2

Fixed

• Linkshell 1 and 2 are never guessed. Which slot a shell is in now comes
  only from the game: its equip message when you zone or equip a shell, or,
  when the addon loads mid-session, the game's reply to /lsmes and then
  /ls2mes, which the addon types for you and keeps out of your chat log.
  Linkshell lines wait up to 1.5 seconds for that reply so they are filed
  under the right shell. With one shell equipped, its first line says its
  slot. If the game never says (no linkshell message set on either shell),
  lines arrive under "Unknown linkshell" and move to the right one once you
  zone or equip a shell; they are never filed under the wrong one.
• A reply from the phone to a linkshell is typed in the slot the game says
  that linkshell is in, and never in a guessed one: if the game has not said,
  the addon asks it first, and the reply fails rather than reach the wrong
  linkshell.
• //vt update says which version it found as soon as it finds it:
  VanaTell: update 0.3.3 found, applying..., before it checks your files.

Changed

• //vt status lists shells whose slots the game has not said as
  linkshells: Regalia, MyPearl (slots not known yet).

VanaTell 0.3.1

Fixed

• Linkshell 1 and 2 no longer swap after a reload or an update. The game names
  each slot's shell when you zone or equip one; the addon now saves that per
  character and starts from it when it loads mid-session, instead of trusting
  the game's linkshell name, which can name your slot 2 shell after you
  re-equip it. Lines from each linkshell go to the right conversation again.

VanaTell 0.3.0

Added

• Updates from inside the game. On load the addon asks vanatell.com once
  whether a newer version is out and, if so, says so: VanaTell 0.3.1 is available: type //vt update. //vt update (/vt update on Ashita)
  downloads the changed files, checks each one's size and SHA-256, backs up
  the files it replaces into backup/, installs them and reloads; any
  failure leaves your files as they were. //vt rollback goes back to the
  version before. Settings and pairing are never touched.

VanaTell 0.2.3

Fixed

• A linkshell equipped from your Mog Satchel, Sack or Case now shows on the
  phone. The addon only looked in your inventory (and the wardrobes, which never
  hold linkshells), so a pearl worn from the satchel was never found: the phone
  showed no linkshell in that slot and its lines arrived as an unknown
  linkshell you could not reply to.

VanaTell 0.2.2

Fixed

• Linkshells after login and zoning: for a while after you log in or zone,
  the game can show a linkshell in the wrong slot (slot 2's shell as slot 1).
  The addon now waits until what it reads has stayed the same for 10 seconds
  before it tells the phone, and keeps checking for two minutes, so the phone
  never shows a wrong slot and settles on the right one without re-equipping.
• Ashita: a leader's Linkshell in slot 1 is found as soon as the addon loads,
  as on Windower, instead of only after a zone or a re-equip.

Added

• The addon says which version loaded: VanaTell 0.2.2 loaded in the
  Windower console, and in Ashita's log file on Ashita.

VanaTell 0.2.1

Fixed

• Linkshells: a linkshell the game does not mark the usual way is now found.
  A leader's Linkshell in slot 1 and some pearls in slot 2 read as "no
  linkshell equipped", so their chat landed under "Unknown linkshell" on the
  phone and could not be answered. On Windower slot 1 now shows as soon as
  the addon loads; slot 2 (and, on Ashita, either slot) shows after you zone
  or equip the pearl again.

VanaTell 0.2.0

Added

• VanaTell for Ashita v4: the same tells, party and linkshell chat, pairing
  and commands for Ashita players, with each command typed with one slash
  (/vt pair CODE). Unzip vanatell-ashita-v0.2.0.zip into Ashita/addons/
  and type /addon load vanatell.

VanaTell 0.1.2

Fixed

• Japanese chat: lines from Japanese players show on the phone instead of
  "???", and Japanese typed on the phone reaches the game.

VanaTell 0.1.1

Added

• Party chat on your phone: every party line you receive or send is relayed
  to the VanaTell app, and a party line sent from the app is typed in game
  with /p. //vt help lists party among the relayed channels.
• //vt url default goes back to the built-in relay after a custom one.

Changed

• In-game messages are prefixed VanaTell:.
• The built-in relay address is never printed; //vt status says
  relay: built-in unless a custom relay is set.
• The trust-root bundle is trimmed to the roots the relay can chain to and
  renamed relay-roots.txt, so phones and PCs no longer offer to install it.
• Auto-translate phrases are expanded to their text before relaying.

Unreleased

0.1.0 - 2026-11-12

Added

• Tells and linkshell chat on your phone: every tell you receive or send, and
  every LS1 and LS2 line, is relayed to the VanaTell Android app.
• Replies from the phone: a tell, an LS1 line or an LS2 line sent from the app
  is typed in game for you.
• Pairing by code: //vt pair CODE with the code the app shows.
• A built-in relay address, so there is nothing to configure. //vt url is an
  override for people who run their own relay.
• Linkshell detection: the name of the linkshell equipped in slot 1 and in
  slot 2, and whether each slot has one equipped, sent to the app and shown on
  the linkshells: line of //vt status.
• Case-insensitive pair codes: upper or lower case both work, and dashes or
  spaces copied from the phone are ignored.
