Changelog

Condensed, player-facing changelog. Full technical history: GitHub

0.17.0 (2026-06-08)

• New: choose how a spawned object can be destroyed. Add a flag when you spawn: breakable (raids/decay can destroy it), smashable (you can destroy it by hand too), or leave it indestructible (the default). Example: .uriel spawn <object> 0 smashable.
• New: respawn flag. A spawned object set to respawn automatically comes back after it's destroyed — until its castle is gone or you .uriel despawn it. Great for decor you want to "stick." Admin switch: ObjectSpawn.RespawnEnabled (+ RespawnPollSeconds).
• New: place at YOUR location with here. .uriel spawn <object> 0 here (or .uriel move here) drops the object where you're standing instead of where the cursor points — handy when a UI panel has your aim pointing off into space.
• Fix: breakable / indestructible now actually work. Previously the setting did nothing on most world objects (and "indestructible" chests could even vanish on their own after a while). Both now behave correctly.
• Fix: characters & bosses no longer show up as spawnable objects. Any CHAR_ units / V Bloods that slipped into your unlock list from an older version are cleaned out automatically, and they can no longer be spawned.
• Fix (BloodCraftHub): the object catalog and your unlocked-objects list now load in the companion UI (they previously came back empty).

0.16.0 (2026-06-08)

• Fix: spawned objects can be managed again after a relog or server restart. .uriel despawn / move / rotate / spawninfo previously couldn't find objects you'd spawned in an earlier session — they now re-find them reliably, and the spawned-object list is no longer wiped on restart.
• Fix: removing certain older spawned objects no longer makes them reappear. Some objects spawned in an early build kept re-spawning the instant you removed them; they're now removed for good.
• New (admin): .uriel forcedespawn — force-remove the object you're aiming at, even one Uriel doesn't track (e.g. left over from an older version). Run it once to target (it names the object), then .uriel forcedespawn confirm within 30s. It never targets your castle heart.
• New (admin): .uriel forcepurgeplot — clear every leftover spawned object on the plot you're standing in, including untracked ones. Your normal build pieces are left untouched.

0.15.0 (2026-06-08)

• New feature: Object Spawning — collect & place WORLD objects in your castle! Bring in resource nodes, world chests, breakable props, and dungeon/GloomRot/ Cursed decor that the normal build menu never offers. .uriel spawn <object> places it inside your plot; .uriel move / .uriel rotate / .uriel despawn manage it. Spawned objects are indestructible & decay-proof by default.
• Collect them by playing. In Discovery mode you unlock an object by destroying one in the world (admin-set % chance) — trees, chests, ore nodes, crates. .uriel unlocks shows your collection and %; .uriel catalog browses everything; .uriel notify on|off toggles the unlock messages.
• Finish the game, get the rest. The ~half of objects that can't be destroyed can unlock on 100% collection, on defeating Dracula, or per-boss via an admin map — admin's choice (or off).
• Admin controls: Full vs Discovery access, a build cost, block/allow specific prefabs, grant objects to players, and a kill-switch for the whole collection system. Castle build-menu pieces are excluded by default (this is about the world objects you can't otherwise get).
• In-game help got friendlier: .uriel help now gives a clean, topic-by-topic menu (objects / storage / stairs / admin) instead of one long list.
• Optional BloodCraftHub integration: a machine API exposes the object catalog and each player's collection for a future client-side palette UI.
• Note: spawned world objects are managed with the .uriel commands above, not the vanilla build menu (an engine limitation).

0.14.0 (2026-06-07)

• Stair swap now applies INSTANTLY — no restart needed! Restyling a staircase rebuilds it in the new style on the spot, so everyone sees the change live. Works on every stair shape (straight, curved left/right, wide). Now available to all players, not just admins.
• New: .uriel removestairs — cleanly delete a staircase you own without tearing apart the floors and walls it's attached to (which a normal dismantle would disturb).
• New config [StairSwap] RespawnGapFrames (default 5) to tune the rebuild.
• Note: a swapped stair is rebuilt as a fresh object — if anything ever looks off, dismantle & rebuild it.
• Licensed under AGPL-3.0 (Uriel adapts techniques from odjit's KindredCommands & KindredSchematics and shares their copyleft license).

0.13.2 (2026-06-07)

• Stair swap works! The restyle is applied and saved instantly; the new look appears for everyone at the next server restart (an engine limitation — placed buildings render from a snapshot the server creates at startup). The swap message now says exactly that.

0.13.1 (2026-06-07)

• Fix: swapped stairs now actually change their appearance (the game hides the visual identity in a second place — found it). Relog if a swap doesn't show immediately; a server restart settles everything.

0.13.0 (2026-06-07)

• Stair swap reworked: the placed stair now simply BECOMES the other style — nothing is demolished or rebuilt, no materials move, and the stair keeps behaving exactly like the one you originally placed. If it still shows the old look right after swapping, step away and back (or relog).

0.12.2 (2026-06-07)

• Fix: stair swaps complete now — if the game's own dismantle doesn't finish (it usually doesn't outside build mode), Uriel removes the stair itself and refunds you its full material cost before building the new style. Tall staircases are two stacked halves — swap each half (aim at it).

0.12.1 (2026-06-07)

• Fix: stair swaps no longer leave invisible "ghost" stairs — removal now uses the game's own dismantle (with its normal material refund), and the new style is built only once the spot is truly free.
• New admin command .uriel stairpurge to clean up ghost stairs left by earlier builds (stand near them, run it, restart the server, rebuild).

0.12.0 (2026-06-07)

• Fix: swapped stairs are now REAL build objects — highlightable, movable, dismantlable — because the swap now rebuilds them through the game's own placement system. Stairs stuck as "permanent" from earlier builds: swap them once with this version to repair them. If the game ever refuses a placement, you keep the stair's full material cost in your inventory and can place it by hand — a swap can never lose your stair's value.

0.11.0 (2026-06-07)

• All targeted commands accept a nearest option to act on the container or stair closest to YOU instead of where you're aiming (e.g. .uriel share nearest, .uriel stairswap stone2 nearest) — handy when a UI or menu is open. Aim targeting also falls back to nearest automatically when nothing is in front of you.

0.10.0 (2026-06-07)

• NEW: .uriel takeprisoner — aim at a shared prison cell to take its prisoner: they're subdued and released to you (bring Dominating Presence to escort them). The game's own subdue button can't be shown to non-owners (it's locked inside the game client), so Uriel does it via command.

0.9.0 (2026-06-07)

• Fix: sharing a chest now takes effect immediately for online players — no game restart needed (chest contents are fully preserved through the change).
• Fix: swapped stairs stay selectable/editable. Already-stuck stairs from the previous build: swap them once more with this version to repair them.
• Known issue: prisoners in shared cells can be fed/extracted but not yet subdued by others — a dedicated command is planned.

0.8.2 (2026-06-07)

• Fix: share/unshare really does take effect immediately for online players now (the previous fix wasn't enough — containers briefly blink as they refresh for everyone).

0.8.1 (2026-06-07)

• Fix: sharing/unsharing now takes effect immediately for players already online (previously could require a relog).
• Fix: prisoners in a shared cell can now be subdued/charmed out by others.

0.8.0 (2026-06-07)

• Fix: shared chests/prison cells are now accessible to other players even when the server's "loot enemy containers" setting is OFF (the usual configuration). Shares survive restarts; unsharing fully restores the container to its castle.

0.7.0 (2026-06-07)

• STAIR HOT-SWAP (experimental): aim at a staircase and `.uriel stairswap<style>` re-skins it in place — no demolishing. Only styles of the same stair shape are offered, and DLC styles require owning that DLC (same rule as your build menu). `.uriel stairstyles` lists what's available; `.uriel stairswap next` cycles.

0.6.0 (2026-06-07)

• .uriel shared now lists your public containers with their full rules; .uriel unsharemine reverts ALL of yours in one command.
• Admins: .uriel sharedall [player] filter, .uriel unshareplayer <player> bulk shutdown, and aim + .uriel share/.uriel unshare now override any container's settings.

0.5.0 (2026-06-07)

• Public PRISON CELLS (experimental): .uriel share a cell to let anyone feed/extract from your prisoner — or charm the prisoner out as their own subdued follower. Separate admin switch (PublicStorage.PrisonEnabled); chest and cell sharing stay independent.
• Fix: deposits can no longer push wrong-type items into restricted slots (prison feeding slots, lumber/seed stashes).

0.4.1 (2026-06-06)

• Fix: depositing into a shared container no longer fails with "container is full" (items were always safely refunded, but the deposit never landed). Cost payments had the same latent bug — also fixed.
• Unshare restores the chest's ownership more faithfully; if a chest looks locked right after unsharing, close and reopen it.

0.4.0 (2026-06-06)

• Share modifiers now stack in one command, any order: .uriel share LimitHours 6 Cost 123456789 100 Permission Take.
• Payment safety: payments only collect when a destination can hold the full amount; specialized stashes (lumber/seed/…) are never used; if the pay chest is full, payment falls back to the shared chest, then the nearest general chest in the owner's castle — and if everything's full the trade is simply refused (taker keeps their items).

0.3.0 (2026-06-06)

• Sharing rules (experimental): .uriel share permission take|give|givetake, withdrawal limits per player (.uriel share limithours 6, .uriel share limitwithdrawal 2), and per-stack access costs (.uriel share cost <itemId> <amount>, payments delivered to your .uriel paychest). Look up item ids with .uriel finditem <name>; inspect any container's rules with .uriel info.
• Fix: others can now PUT items into shared containers (vanilla silently refused deposits; owners were affected too).

0.2.1 (2026-06-06)

• Fix: .uriel share reported "no neutral team source found" on live servers (distant world objects are disabled and were invisible to the lookup; also fixed the same issue in share re-application at server restart).

0.2.0 (2026-06-06)

• Public storage (experimental): aim at one of your castle chests and use .uriel share to let ANYONE on the server use it — per-container, owner controlled, .uriel unshare to revert. .uriel shared lists yours; admins get .uriel sharedall / .uriel unshareall. Shares survive restarts. Prison-cell sharing is a separate upcoming feature. Not yet validated on a live server — test feedback welcome.

0.1.0 (2026-06-06)

• Initial scaffold — mod loads server-side, .uriel overview command, config switches in place. No gameplay features yet; stair hot-swap and public storage are in development.
