ClearLag 2.1.0.1

Multiversion support

• Added native builds for:
  • Forge 1.6.4
  • Forge 1.7.10
  • Forge 1.8.9
  • Forge 1.12.2
  • Forge 1.16.5
  • Forge 1.18.2
  • Forge 1.20.1
  • NeoForge 1.21.11
• Preserved configurable item and mob cleanup, countdown warnings, operator commands, live JSON policies, saved-mob protection, and spawn-control rules across supported versions.
• The admin spawn-control tool now defaults to disabled, allowing ClearLag to remain properly server-only by default.
• Existing configurations that explicitly enable the tool are preserved.
• Reloading unchanged item-cleanup settings no longer restarts the active cleanup countdown.
• Improved per-version packaging, metadata, archive validation, and Java compatibility checks.

Improved legacy entity clearing

On Minecraft 1.6.4 through 1.12.2, the manual entity-clear command has been redesigned as a proper administrator removal tool.

/clearlag clear entities
/clearlag clear entities Slime
/clearlag clear entities Zombie Skeleton

The existing command spelling remains supported:

/clearlag entities clear

Manual clearing now correctly handles living entities that were previously missed, including:

• Slimes
• Villagers
• Golems
• Animals
• Hostile mobs
• Modded living entities

Manual removal is intentionally separate from scheduled cleanup rules. It can remove bosses and named, tamed, or persistent mobs when explicitly invoked by an administrator.

Players, armor stands, dropped items, projectiles, and nonliving utility entities are excluded.

Specific entity types can now be targeted directly:

• 1.6.4–1.8.9 use their native legacy registry names, such as Slime.
• 1.12.2 uses namespaced IDs such as minecraft:slime.
• Multiple entity types can be requested in one command.
• Invalid entity IDs are rejected before anything is removed.

Modern command behavior

On Minecraft 1.16.5 and newer, /clearlag clear entities is deprecated and will not remove entities.

Modern Minecraft already provides more powerful vanilla entity selectors through commands such as:

/kill @e[type=minecraft:slime]

ClearLag will instead direct administrators toward vanilla /kill selectors.

This only affects the manual entity-clear command. Automatic mob cleanup, item cleanup, countdown warnings, spawn prevention, and other ClearLag systems continue to function normally.
