The Harpy Express: Extended

⚠️ WARNING

This update may break older instances of the modpack!
A fresh installation of the modpack is recommended, and the same applies to dedicated servers. Client and server configurations and presets prior to this version are not compatible.
This version is primarly made for testing, a lot of changes have been done to the backend of the mod, if you encounter any issues, please report them on GitHub, thank you!

• New plushies (they're mostly my friends that are helping me on the mod :3)
• GitHub issue templates and contributors guidelines documents

Changed

• Improved optional add-on compatibility: mixins for Noelle's Roles, Starry Express, Stupid Express, Kin's Wathe, and Wathe Extra Items are skipped when the corresponding mod is absent (#100)
• Breaking: simplified the client & server config accessors and switched to pretty-printed JSON configuration files. Old config files and saved presets are no longer supported
• Breaking: Refactored a lot of the project's code base and packages to improve maintainability and readability, which may break some other mods that depend on Wathe: Extended's code!
• World protection improvements:
  • World protection now prevents players from breaking or placing blocks inside the lobby, ready, and play area boundaries
  • Added Wathe's Privacy Glasses and the blocks from Wathe Extra Items and WathExtra to the list of protected blocks
• Changed & added some visual effects:
  • A vignette now darkens the screen edges of the Introverted if it is inside a crowd of players
  • A vignette will now darken the screen edges of depressed players, and the vignette's intensity increases over time while depressed, goes away when the player is no longer depressed
  • Improved Last Stand vignette rendering and coloring
• Custom plushies sounds are now using a randomized pitch value when squashing them (yea even Ish's meow)
• Updated Chinese translation (@haiman233)
• Updated Stupid Express to 2026.10.1-h1.4
  • Stupid Express Changelog
• Updated README.md
• Updated CHANGELOG.md

Removed

• Removed the shaking animations to the mood HUD when the Introverted was inside a crowd of players

Fixed

• Configured map effects now apply correctly at game start, and the default gamemode is restored correctly after Secret Murder rounds and server restarts

• Killer Cohort overlay appearing for some roles that shouldn't be able to (Arsonist, Executioner, Jester, etc.) (#99)
• Licensed Villain and Dreamer having access to Instinct
• Licensed Villain dropping their Revolver when shooting innocents
• Introverted modifier being assigned to the Licensed Villain
• Recaller ability not teleporting them if they are seated
• Swapper ability not teleporting one of the selected players if they were seated
• Players' stamina not being reset to maximum when a game starts
