• Java reflection via Python script functions, including ability to call script functions from Java (ebdba54, 8008110, 39160c3, 8d97911)
• Introduce Tasks for efficient, synchronous batching of script function calls, including Java reflection (d2bd144, 1377acb, 19eb79c, 0762eaa, 12e7306, f8ed176, 023fd05, 1efbd90, 07388d9)

  • entity selectors for entities() and players() (6d6d627)
  • job_info() for detecting other running scripts (156dc33)
  • version_info() for detecting versions of Minecraft, Minescript, and OS (d448c4b)
  • multiple args to echo(), chat(), and log(), like builtin print() function (114c559)
  • append_chat_history(), chat_input(), and set_chat_input() for managing chat input and history (46a0cde)
  • player_get_targeted_entity() (93dd5e8)
