Helpful Commands

This is just a first release for 1.21.1 :D

Yay, a global update!

The project was rewritten from scratch to fix some of the major issues, introduce support for the permissions API that you can use with tools like LuckPerms, fix most translation issues (especially on the servers), make command outputs even more interactive and vibrant, improve security, and, finally, make Helpful Commands even more flexible and stable.

Improvements & Integrations

Better support for servers

• Helpful Commands is now purely server-side, which means your players won't need to download the mod when playing on your server to get access to its functionality
• Fixed all translation issues
• Improved console command output: no more strange symbols and ambiguous messages when using the mod in the console

Support for Permissions API and tools such as LuckPerms

• You can now use Permission management tools for even more flexible configuration: determine which players or groups can use certain commands and who can configure the mod
• If you can't use the command for whatever reason, it will simply be hidden from you, and there will be no autocomplete

Better target support and command output

• Commands that support targets now display more detailed information in their output messages, allowing you to see all the entities or players that were affected

New features

New commands

• /rename
• /repair

Command categories

All commands now have a category. And the command list now displays all commands in a nicer and categorized way.

"Public" commands

Instead of setting OP levels for each command as in 2.0, you can now make the command public with a single click to make it available to everyone. By default all the commands are not public (restricted). Commands in the "Main" category are always public and this can't be changed.

Removed features

• Removed hcEnabled game rule. You can't disable the mod now
• OP level setting for commands. Replaced with "Public" commands

Other changes

• For security reasons, only the host can now configure the mod on integrated servers. Other players will get an error, even if they have configuration permissions. This doesn't apply to dedicated servers where you can use permission management tools to allow certain players to configure the mod
• /heal command can now be used on entities, not just players
• Support for custom dimensions for commands such as /dimension, /home, etc.
• /explosion command is now disabled by default
• Default power limit for /explosion command is now 15

Your old Helpful Commands configuration is not compatible with this version, so you will have to reconfigure the mod after updating from 2.0!

Still in beta! While this version already has most of the previous functionality, it is still under active development. So don't expect it to be absolutely stable and work well in every scenario.

Changes since last preview:

• Added /repair command
• Default power limit for /explosion command is now 15 instead of 25
• Updated some command descriptions

This is a preview of the next major update for the mod. The project was rewritten from scratch to fix some of the main issues and introduce support for the permissions API that you can use with mods like LuckPerms. The full changelog will be available when the final version of this update releases.

This is the initial release for Minecraft 1.20.3

• Updated dependencies
• Some backend changes

Updated dependencies and did some backend changes.

Initial release for Minecraft 1.20.2

Yay! A global update

Translations support, full redesign of all the commands and main infos, targets support, new flexible config, more control over who can use commands, new commands, code improvements.

• Potential support for other languages (we just need to start translating now)
• Overhauls and redesigns for every single command in the mod. This also includes /hc that prints useful information and command lists. Speaking of which, almost every single output is now interactable: tap to toggle command, change some config value, execute or suggest something, etc.
• Support for targets. This is huge, because now you can affect other players with Helpful Commands. For example, make them be able to fly, or make them invulnerable and vice versa. Also works with entities: for instance, /dimension command now allows you to switch dimensions for other entities, not just players.
• It is now possible to set OP level required to execute a certain command. For example, make /gm command only available for the most privileged people on your server, or make /feed command available to literally everyone!
• Rebased Helpful Commands config. You will have to reconfigure the mod again, but you will be surprised by how easy it is to do now. With lots of code improvements and optimizations, configuring the mod is not hard and annoying at all. That also makes it more flexible, allowing you to set /explosion command power limit to your own preferred value. And, of course, you can also set the required OP level to edit mod's config.
• Individual command improvements. /home and /back commands, for instance, now show a really neat position output, as well as provide you with interactable chat texts that you can click on.
• New /ignite command which allows you to set target(s) on fire for a specified number of seconds.
• Removed /abilities command in favor of /god and /fly. Hopefully, this makes things more user-friendly and easy.
• Code optimizations in the mod itself. Potentially makes it more readable, but feel free to propose improvements.
