Changes

  • ⚠️ BREAKINGplay and stop functions now pause all animations when called.
  • ⚠️ BREAKING — Removed support for Multiple target Minecraft versions. Blueprints can now only be exported to a single target version at a time.
  • ⚠️ BREAKINGTemporarily disabled plugin mode entirely to avoid confusion while it's being reworked.
  • Added Export All and Export All (Debug) action to export all open Blueprints at once.
  • Added Export (Debug) action to export a Blueprint with debug features enabled. (Replaces show_function_errors and show_outdated_warning settings)

  • Added support for 1.21.6 element rotations. (No more 22.5 degree limitation!)

  • Added full support for 1.21.5 unicode escape sequences in SNBT JSON Text components. As long as the version of Minecraft you're exporting to supports Unicode characters, you can use them in your JSON Text components.
