Translation:

  • Updated Traditional Chinese translation.

Developer:

  • The Transform packet now uses entity UUIDs. It also no longer includes data for particles and instead includes data for gender.
  • Added new tests to make sure the spec requirements for ability, ball, cancrowned, generation, growth, nature, nickname, pokerus, and status all work.
  • Split a variable that handled cancelling the evolution and closing the Evolve Screen into two separate variables so that they can be done independently.
  • To align with moving to use the Pokemon class this deprecates:
    • Evolution#doEvolution(PixelmonEntity, String) in favor of Evolution#doEvolution(Pokemon, String)
    • Evolution#finishedEvolving(PixelmonEntity) in favor of Evolution#finishedEvolving(Pokemon)
    • EvolutionQuery(PixelmonEntity, Evolution, String) in favor of EvolutionQuery(Pokemon, Evolution, String)
    • EvolutionQuery(PixelmonEntity, Stats) in favor of EvolutionQuery(Pokemon, Stats)
    • EvoCondition#passes(PixelmonEntity) in favor of EvoCondition#passes#(Pokemon)
  • Delay the spec validation until after the datapack files are loaded via Pixelmon.
    • This means the spec error will likely appear when you attempt to evolve the custom Pokemon, or run commands such as the wiki command.
    • This is likely the only way to do this as we cannot guarantee load order and with the new spec validation system the Pokemon has to exist for the species requirement, therefore we must delay the "get" call.
  • Added the ability to set and get the random seed used by battles.
    • Added BattleRandomSource, an implementation of RandomSource which is supplied with another RandomSource implementation to use for battles.
    • Allows setting of seed used in a given battle, and retrieval of the seed used by a battle, including if randomly determined.
    • Added and changed a number of the random methods to be named better.
  • BREAKING CHANGE: Battles no longer use RandomHelper, except in cases where the BattleController isn't available yet, or cases of client-side only use.
  • BREAKING CHANGE: TickHandlerBase#onTick now returns a boolean value for whether the tick handler should be removed or not, changing from returning void.
  • Added improved BattleEndCause API.
    • This allows for more specific/precise reasoning for when a battle is ended. Therefore, letting sidemod developers have a deeper level of control over what to do for different scenarios.
    • Added registry PixelmonRegistry#battleEndCause.
â–º Click to view example of custom battle end
@Mod.EventBusSubscriber(modid = Pixelmon.MODID, bus = Mod.EventBusSubscriber.Bus.MOD)
public class NewBattleCauses {
@SubscribeEvent
public static void onRegister(RegisterEvent event) {
    event.register(PixelmonRegistry.BATTLE_END_CAUSE_REGISTRY, helper -> {
        helper.register(BattleEndCause.FORFEIT.id(), BattleEndCause.FORFEIT);
    });
}

}

- Added a builder for requirements to allow for much easier creation of simplistic requirements. - Obviously for more complicated requirements, such as the logical ones, it still requires a class.

PokemonSpecificationProxy.register(PokemonSpecificationProxy.requirementBuilder(Boolean.class)

                .dataMatcher((pokemon, aBoolean) -> false)
                .dataApplier((pokemon, aBoolean) -> {})
                .minecraftMatcher((pixelmonEntity, isBoss) -> pixelmonEntity.isBossPokemon())
                .minecraftApplier((pixelmonEntity, isBoss) -> pixelmonEntity.setBossTier(isBoss ? BossTierRegistry.getRandomBossTier() : BossTierRegistry.NOT_BOSS))
                .build());
- Added method to BattleLog to search for and compare the ordering of two specific strings within battle messages. - Replaced method returns of type ArrayList with the generic List within BattleController and BattleParticipant. - Replaced various usages of Stream with enhanced-for within BattleController. - **BREAKING CHANGE**: Deprecated the old `Dialogue` API and the events. - **BREAKING CHANGE**: Refactored the "DialogueInputScreen" API to "DialogueFactory". - **BREAKING CHANGE**: Added a lot of options to the new Dialogue API: - You can now add infinite buttons. - Button interactions now have a response for seemless UI transitioning. - You can now chose to hide or show the Minecraft UI behind the Dialogue UI. - Buttons can now have a background color, and hover background color setting. - Buttons can now have "accepted inputs" to where the button press will only be accepted when all the requirements are met. - When the accepted input requirements are not met buttons now have errors displayed for a short period of time. - The input box can now have "accepted inputs" to change the characters the user can enter. For example, only allowing numbers entered. - The maximum text input length can now be modified. - You can use a Component for the default input text value (allowing for translation keys). - You can now specify the button, and close, handlers directly on the Builders. - Added the method `BattleBuilder#logResult` which will force the log to be printed at the end of the battle. - Changed some resource locations to just use the already-created static values from Resources.java. - Removed ResourceLocations from images that were no longer used, were missing, or were redundant. - Removed several image files for UIs that are no longer used. - Removed old ReceivedModListEvent.java, which was not implemented anywhere.

Changes:

  • Changed the way attack animations are stored to be per battle:
    • This change should improve the speed of battle ticking on servers, as we no longer have to search through all current attack animations to find those related to the current battle.
    • This change should also improve the memory footprint of attack animations as they no longer need to store a backwards reference to the battle controller.

    • This will reduce the impact battles have on server performance.
