ResourceLoader

Resourceloader 2.5.1

Fixes

• Players are no longer kicked for declining or failing an optional pack. With enforcement off (the default), declining a pack sent by /load, or failing to download it, kicked the player, and operators with resourceloader.bypass were kicked as well. Kicks now only happen when enforcement.enabled is on, and only for the pack enforced on join. A pack a player picks later can be declined freely.
• Packs copied into the packs folder while the server was off are now detected on startup and on /resourcereload. Before, only packs added while the server was running got registered. Files that aren't valid zips are skipped with a warning. Custom storage.resource-pack-directory folders are now watched too.
• Merged packs work on 1.21.9+ and 26.x. /mergepack never actually saved the updated pack.mcmeta into the zip, and its version table stopped at 1.21, so 26.x clients saw merged packs as incompatible. Merged packs now declare a format range covering every input pack and the server's own version, in the layout newer clients require (min_format/max_format, plus supported_formats for older ones).
• Merge priority with 3+ packs: a file from a middle pack could be overridden by the first pack. Later packs now always win.
• Merging no longer drops content from lower packs: language strings, texture atlas sources and sounds.json entries are combined the way the game combines stacked packs. Models are no longer broken by gluing together elements from different packs.
• /autoload now works with URL packs (it used to do nothing), matches pack names case-insensitively, and players with bypass still get their own autoload pack on join.
• Enforcement: the enforced pack is now sent as required. enforcement.restrict (blocking /tp, /home, /spawn… and interactions until the pack has loaded) now works. An autoload preference pointing at a removed pack no longer lets a player skip the enforced pack.
• URL packs: if the pack's host is down, the cached copy is used instead of failing. Unchanged packs are no longer re-downloaded after a restart. An interrupted download no longer leaves a broken cached file. cache.enabled: false no longer breaks URL packs.
• enforcement.use-server-properties: /autoload preferences now apply on join, and a preferred pack is added on top of the server.properties pack instead of replacing it.
• /checkpack: accepts 1.21.9+/26.x packs that use min_format/max_format, flags the same pack.mcmeta mistakes the game refuses to load, warns when a pack's version doesn't match the server, stops reporting vanilla textures as missing, and no longer shows "successful" next to critical issues.
• Merge GUI: selected packs now show "✓ Selected", and clicking items in your own inventory no longer triggers the Merge/Cancel buttons.
• /mergepack output names are cleaned up, so a name can no longer write outside the packs folder.
• A warning is logged at startup when server.address is empty and the detected address is a loopback or Docker one, the usual reason pack downloads fail on Docker/Pterodactyl hosts.
• Packs are no longer re-hashed on every send, which cuts join lag with large packs.
• /load with a URL pack shows "Loading…" once instead of twice.
