PocketMine-MP 1.6.2dev-229 "Unleashed" with API 3.0.0-ALPHA6

For Minecraft PE 1.1.0.55
Beginning of strict types, some performance improvements, lots of bug fixes.

DISCLAIMER: THIS IS AN ALPHA SNAPSHOT. THIS BUILD IS NOT FEATURE-COMPLETE AND IS LIKELY TO BE HIGHLY UNSTABLE. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR NUCLEAR WAR, EXPLOSIONS OR CORRUPTION OF DATA RESULTING FROM USE OF THIS BUILD.

This build has breaking API changes, so the API has been bumped to 3.0.0-ALPHA6. These changes are NOT yet complete.

Notable changes

Core

• 32-bit support has been removed for consistency and performance reasons. (#984)
• The Binary class now has strict types and type-hinting for safety reasons when writing data to network.
• Fixed incorrect PC world format versions causing Mojang's official McRegion -> Anvil converter to reject PocketMine-MP-generated McRegion worlds.
• Fixed ServerKiller does not work correctly on single-core machines.
• AsyncTasks no longer leak memory after completion. (#922)
• Fixed masses of console spam when a crash occurs and an NBT tag or EncapsulatedPacket was an argument somewhere in the call stack.
• NBT ListTags now default to TAG_End if no tag type is specified instead of null.
• Fixed /particle command crash when creating TerrainParticle or ItemBreakParticle
• Player XpSeed is now restricted to the bounds of an int32 on all platform (since it is supposed to be saved as an IntTag, which is bounded to the range of an int32).
• Player->close() now does its best to catch thrown exceptions and clean up after itself to avoid possible leaks and issues during the quit process.
• Fixed AutoUpdater crashing the server when invalid data is returned by the updater host.
• Changed updater host to https://update.pmmp.io
• Changed crash-archive host to https://crash.pmmp.io
• Fixed some issues with static properties not being included in memory dumps.
• Fixed server crashing when crashing while creating a CrashDump.
• Fixed silenced errors being reported in CrashDumps when a plugin uses exit() or die().
• Fixed lots of bugs exposed by strict types.

Network

• Chunk serialization and compression is now always done asynchronously to improve performance.
• Level area-broadcasted packets and block updates are now sent in batches instead of individual packets to improve performance.
• Workaround for packets sent with immediate priority being ignored by the client (#1026)
• Fixed UUID encoding (players will no longer see themselves twice in the player list)
• ResourcePackDataInfoPacket will now report the correct number of resource pack chunks.

Gameplay

• Dropped items no longer bounce on partial blocks such as slabs.
• Fixed hunger decreasing too fast.
• Fixed server crash when vines are placed on some block faces.
• Falling sand is no longer destroyed by grass and no longer destroys slabs.
• Falling into water 1 block deep no longer causes fall damage.
• Removed eye-height offsets causing spawned entities to appear in wrong positions on the client-side.
• Arrows will now fly correctly towards targets and no longer spin round and fall flat when hitting a surface.
• Implemented basic sky-light population on chunk generation and sky-light updating when blocks are changed in the world. This will be needed for proper farming.
• Improved player movement (smoother, much less stuttery) and fixed several client-sided positioning bugs.
• Fixed other players don't see teleport movement when teleporting to nearby locations.
• Fixed player spawn points set using /spawnpoint not working.

API

• Strict types are now enabled throughout the core code. See #969 and #993 for details.
• Plugins can now specify the extensions attribute in plugin.yml to specify PHP extensions required for the plugin to function correctly. This may be useful where plugins require extensions which are not supplied by default with PMMP-supplied PHP binaries. (#903)
• Added Vector3->asVector3(), Position->asPosition(), Location->asLocation() (#973). This is intended to provide an easy way to convert a descendent of one of these classes (such as an Entity) into an explicit Vector3, Position or Location.
• Added the following events:
  • PlayerDataSaveEvent, which is called when a player's NBT data is about to be saved to disk. (#920)
  • UpdateNotifyEvent, which is called when the AutoUpdater receives information that a new PocketMine-MP version is available.
• PlayerInteractEvent is now called with the left-click action when a player attempts to remove an item from an item frame.
• NBT classes now have more strict type-checking in the constructors, Tag->getValue() and Tag->setValue(). ByteTags, ShortTags and IntTags will now throw an exception if the supplied value is outside of the range they can store.
• Block constructors will now always retain the meta values passed in the constructor, fixes issues with crafting with recipes that required any-damage ingredients.
• Added API methods Block->canClimb(), Entity->canClimb(), Entity->setCanClimb(bool), Entity->canClimbWalls() and Entity->setCanClimbWalls(bool) along with corresponding entity metadata flags.
• Added API methods Block->getLightFilter() and Block->diffusesSkyLight() (used in sky light population).
• Added /title command and API for resetting title durations.
• Refactored some JSON-parsing-specific NBT code into its own class.
• Added Server->broadcastTitle().
• Item->setLore() is now fluent.

PocketMine-MP 1.6.2dev-57 "Unleashed" with API 3.0.0-ALPHA5

For Minecraft PE 1.0.7.0
Many bug fixes, changes to network API (work still in progress!), improved chunk sending, added resource packs support

DISCLAIMER: THIS IS AN ALPHA SNAPSHOT. THIS BUILD IS NOT FEATURE-COMPLETE AND IS LIKELY TO BE HIGHLY UNSTABLE. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR NUCLEAR WAR, EXPLOSIONS OR CORRUPTION OF DATA RESULTING FROM USE OF THIS BUILD.

This build has breaking API changes, so the API has been bumped to 3.0.0-ALPHA5. These changes are NOT yet complete.

Notable changes

Core

• World format implementations using Regions will now be more thoroughly checked for validity before the core attempts to use them. (#393)
• Fixed a crash that would prevent a world from being at all usable if a Human was created with an invalid skin.
• Fixed chunk object memory leak when chunks are replaced by the generator.
• Tile and Entity NBT trees are now destroyed when their close() methods are called to combat memory leaks.
• Fixed tile and entity object memory leaks and crashes when replacing chunks

• Fixed memory leak related to persistent entities when lots of players join and quit a server in the same area
• Fixed possible item NBT duplication where items were holding references to the same NBT trees when cloned.
• Fixed usage always being reported even when disabled in pocketmine.yml
• Fixed stack traces in the logger sometimes missing the top stack frame.
• Fixed Entity object memory leak in EntityDamageByEntityEvent
• Fixed Player object memory leak when players subscribed to the administrative broadcast permission quit the server
• Non-generated chunks will no longer be saved to disk, fixes big dirty holes in some maps due to chunks being saved before being generated
• Rewritten the chunk sending algorithm, much better chunk sending (will now actually reach the horizon)
• Fixed a major memory leak when a W10 player set a very high render distance due to the server not enforcing radius limits. This has been corrected,. A player's render distance will now be set to the minimum of the spawn radius, the player's radius, or the server default render distance.
• The settings chunk-sending.max-chunks has been removed from pocketmine.yml in favour of a more vanilla view-distance setting in server.properties (values match MCPE render distance settings) and chunk-sending.spawn-threshold has been replaced with chunk-sending.spawn-radius (again, same values as MCPE).
• Fixed CPU waste of batched packets sometimes being encoded twice.
• Auto-updater checks are now done with an AsyncTask to prevent slowdown on server start.
• Added debug output for lots of network- and protocol-related things.

API

• Massive refactor of the network namespace. All packets have moved from network\protocol to network\mcpe\protocol, and Info has been renamed to ProtocolInfo. This is to make space for future changes. Note that these changes are far from complete and more will follow.
• Added API methods to Player to allow transferring them to other servers, and to allow sending titles.
• Added Entity API for setting entity scale.
• Added support for commands with spaces in their names for future command implementation.
• Item->deepEquals() has been deprecated and its functionality added to Item->equals().
• Added the Color class to the utils namespace. This was primarily added for use when reversing the encoding of the ClientboundMapItemDataPacket.
• Player->hasPermission() will now throw an exception if the player has been closed.
• Commands no longer all have the same hints if you modify one command's data.
• API methods Player::isValidSkin() and Player::isValidName() have been added.
• The API for Utils internet access has been improved, added BulkCurlTask for batch-executing cURL operations. See #834 for details.

Gameplay

• Fixed sounds not working after 1.0.4
• Added resource packs support. This support is currently very basic and will be improved in the future. Currently only resource packs in the .zip format are supported. See the resource packs configuration for details (will be created in the resource_packs/ directory after you run the server).
• Hunger now works!
• Implemented Absorption effect
• Fixed bows can't be fired after starting or stopping sprint.
• Fixed solid blocks filtering their own light, fixes light saving for lit furnace, pumpkins and glowing obsidian.
• Fixed unlit furnaces glowing in the dark.
• Fixed lighting issues due to light changes in subchunks which were not being saved to disk.
• Block light is now correctly updated when removing obstructions.
• Fixed potion bubbles not working.
• Added support for copying tile NBT onto items by ctrl+middle-clicking on Windows 10 Edition.
• Fixed blocks sometimes glitching and reappearing when broken due to timing issues.

• Fixed Cake recipe not showing up due to having multiple result items
• Fence-gates now work properly
• Spectator-mode players cannot break blocks anymore if the AdventureSettings flags were not set correctly.

API changes relating to closing Levels and anti-cheat, along with many bug fixes.

DISCLAIMER: THIS IS AN ALPHA SNAPSHOT. THIS BUILD IS NOT FEATURE-COMPLETE AND IS LIKELY TO BE HIGHLY UNSTABLE. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR NUCLEAR WAR, EXPLOSIONS OR CORRUPTION OF DATA RESULTING FROM USE OF THIS BUILD.

This build has breaking API changes, so the API has been bumped to 3.0.0-ALPHA3. These changes are NOT yet complete.

Changes

Core

• Added a hack to workaround client-side text duplication (TODO REVERT 52748fc)
• Crashdumps are now created in the crashdumps folder instead of being dumped into your server root directory.
• Some tweaks for Anvil I/O for more performance in some circumstances (won't make much difference in heavily-built up worlds)
• Movement-checks and instabreak anti-cheats can now be disabled in pocketmine.yml (#287)
• EXPERIMENTAL LevelDB support is back, with support for MCPE 1.0 worlds. NOTE that LevelDB can be HIGHLY UNSTABLE and will segfault a lot. See #254 for progress.
• Added crafting data cache to reduce on-join lag spikes. (9c36e0c)

PocketMine 1.6.1dev-87 "Unleashed"

For Minecraft PE 0.16.0.5 alpha

THIS IS A PRE RELEASE. Do not use it in production unless you are sure you know what you are doing.

Only changes since the 1.6dev tag will be documented here. Changes between 1.4.1 and 1.6dev are far too extensive to document effectively.

Changes

Core

• New RNG, based on XorShift128 from the php-random library. This fixes issue with repeating terrain on 32-bit systems. Note however that new generation into existing worlds will not be seamless.
• Block and Item IDs have been moved to interfaces for better consistency
• Better method for synchronisation of client/server time (less packet spam)
• Utils::getRandomBytes() has been deprecated in favour of php7's random_bytes() function.
• <player>.dat saving/reading can now be disabled in pocketmine.yml (set player.save-player-data to false)

Gameplay/game features

• Added Flower Pots
• Containers can now be opened in creative
• Trapdoors can now be placed without a supporting block

API

This release has API changes, bumping the version to 2.1.0.

Entity metadata (0.16)

Many changes have been made to entity metadata. Many true/false data properties are now entity status flags, such as NoAI, NametagVisible and various others. Entity status flags can be set using:
$entity->setDataFlag(Entity::DATA_FLAGS, Entity::INSERT_DATA_FLAG_NAME, true/false);

Breaking changes are detailed here. Additions are not documented. https://gist.github.com/dktapps/76b291b7a861762b54f7a8b834389883

NOTE: It's strongly recommended to use provided API methods where possible instead of tampering with metadata directly.

AsyncTask API additions

• Main thread local storage: Developers can pass any data including objects to the constructor of AsyncTask such that the data can be retrieved after the AsyncTask completes using the new AsyncTask::fetchLocal() method, or use the AsyncTask::peekLocal() method to get the data without removing it.
• Progress updates: Developers can use the new AsyncTask::publishProgress() method and overrideAsyncTask::onProgressUpdated()` to handle AsyncTask progress information in the main thread.

Refer to #1 and #100 for details.

WeakPosition

WeakPosition was added in 1.6.1 to fix bugs with unloading levels which have player spawn points set in them. This type of position holds a level ID instead of a direct reference. Use this when your position may outlive the level it is in.

Removal of Item/NBT circular dependency

Refer to #121 for details.

Other

• Added Player->sendWhisper() (#73).
• Removed LargeExplodeParticle due to incorrect name - use HugeExplodeParticle. Added HugeExplodeSeedParticle and BlockForceFieldParticle (7314aaf)
