0.1.23

• Sample Ashlands candidates in the southern cap instead of wasting attempts at other latitudes.
• Add versioned terrain preparation for newly reserved Ashlands arenas: persist a level foundation and clear the lava mask inside the arena footprint.
• Allow shallow shore edges and uneven ground while retaining dry-centre, deep-water, biome, location, untouched-sector and player-property checks.
• Commit the site reservation before preparing the new foundation; prepare terrain one tile at a time.
• Stop searches after 90 seconds or the candidate limit, report exhaustion and add a server-validated retry with a different candidate sequence.
• Preserve existing fortress protection and existing arena terrain rules.
• No tests or game launches. User verification is required before publication.

0.1.22

• Separate saved-fortress recovery from new placement: no clearance or terrain levelling on recovery.
• Wait for native world loading before reconciling saved objects; retain support roots during startup.
• Restrict site clearance to recognized natural obstacles, excluding player provenance, structures, containers and loose items.
• Stop new placement over structures/containers before terraforming; remove automatic relocation outside the footprint.
• Persist site preparation completion to prevent repetition after interrupted placement.
• Recover surviving packed objects only, without resetting live furniture to an outdated manifest.
• Wait for physical fortress supports before restoring cargo; suspend local wear while recovering missing supports.

• Build against installed Jotunn 2.30.1; no game launches or tests.

0.1.20

• Update English/Russian placement instructions to disclose automatic clearing and structure removal.

0.1.18

• Preserve placement rejection messages instead of overwriting them with a terrain-preparation notice.
• Reuse persisted terrain compilers; report waiting, preparation errors and successful completion.
• Add same-world packing and relocation of supported furniture, player structures, chest contents and loose items within the fortress footprint, retaining native objects instead of copying inventories.
• Add a saved cargo manifest, native-object reconciliation and recovery paths. Block unsupported objects and remote-owned live containers rather than forcibly taking ownership.
• Document multiplayer, cross-world, bed, timer and mod-compatibility limits. The new relocation paths have not been verified in game.

• Compiled only; no tests or game launches.

Changelog

0.1.15

• Batch server tick/request mutations into background atomic writes; delay acknowledgements until both durable copies complete.
• Reuse committed wave tickets and native actor tags instead of saving the full expedition at each enemy arrival.
• Bound the native warehouse grid to 48 slots per page without a capacity limit. Keep Take All and Stack All operating across pages.
• Permit independent transfers while applied receipts await a shared character checkpoint; coalesce short bursts while retaining reservation and receipt recovery.
• Fill service arches using the entire black-backing footprint. Stop profile rays at its front face instead of sampling masonry behind it; accept wide lower openings.
• Keep dim service icons during combat, suspend nearby effects when the player is far away and cache stationary caption occlusion checks.
• No tests, game launches or FPS measurements. Native character disk/cloud checkpoint stalls remain possible.

0.1.14

• Replace per-drop collection messages with one persisted round summary after loot settles; retain immediate warehouse credit during combat.
• Capture new environmental item drops within the active arena; persist an exclusion flag on player-discarded items. Preserve unidentified pre-update drops.
• Replace loot's four full-world scans per second with native sector queries around occupied arenas. Track only expedition ballistas instead of two additional full-world scans per second.
• Index loot receipts and deserialize each new drop only once; disable capture components after publication and cap simultaneous flight effects at twelve.
• Update native warehouse rows after the prepared transfer is applied, retaining server reservation until durable commit. Skip unchanged paginated snapshots and reuse unchanged item objects on row updates.
• Remove map regeneration and achievement synchronization from inventory receipt checkpoints. Preserve native character writes, cloud checks and backups; log slow checkpoints at most once every thirty seconds.
• Cache successful terrain checks for two seconds and eliminate duplicate preparation calls.
• Avoid arena ambient-music lookup through uninitialized biome data, contain retries and suppress repeated exception floods. Initialize all particle velocity axes in the same curve mode.
• Production compilation only; no automated tests, game launches, gameplay verification or FPS measurements.

0.1.13

• Render service labels after world post-processing to prevent Swamp blur; hide labels behind walls, from the rear and while inventory/menu windows are open. Occlusion covers the full text bounds.
• Fit each recessed arch veil and rune border to the native stone opening; keep particles inside the lower opening.
• Replace the shared warehouse chest with a purple service arch using the same unlimited native inventory and stored items. Personal rewards keep their chest.
• Grant participants 10 minutes of native Rested at each new round. Preserve longer effects; repeated state updates and reconnects do not refresh the timer.
• Keep all ballista protections for players, summoned and tamed creatures.
• Production compilation only; no automated tests, game launches or gameplay verification.

0.1.12

• Add green upgrade, gold repair and red healing veils inside the existing entrance-side arches; replace the forge and healing pylon. Services are disabled during combat.

• Add an interactable green healing pylon for use between battles.

• Apply authoritative warehouse row changes after transfers, reuse decoded items, and reject mixed-version listings.

• Move server warehouse and consolidation saves off the render thread behind a mutation barrier; retain durable acknowledgement ordering.

• Avoid serializing the whole minimap for every item in a transfer sequence; refresh at most once per 30 seconds in transfer saves, without suppressing ordinary saves.

• Update Russian and English text. Compile only; no automated tests, game launches or performance benchmarks.

0.1.10

• Rename the visible mod to Still a Viking? and add the approved skull-and-rift icon to the package and arena menu.
• Update the hammer category, gate/key display names and HUD branding.
• Keep the existing plugin GUID, assembly name, save paths, prefab identities and network identifiers to preserve continuity with DreadRifts.

0.1.7

• Replaced the custom warehouse window with Valheim's native chest interface, tooltips, drag-and-drop and stack-splitting dialog.
• Storage rows grow automatically with the contents; no fixed storage slot cap.
• Fixed withdrawals requiring an empty slot when compatible carried stacks still had room.

• Kept authoritative server storage, item reservations and durable character receipts before commit.
• Production compilation only; gameplay tests were not run at the user's request.

0.1.6

• Included checkpoint support in the repair decision so damage beneath the arrival point can recover too.

• Added native arena music: ambient preparation, continuous wave combat music and biome boss themes in round 10. Uses installed clips and the game music volume.
• Reduced resurrection waiting time from 120 to 60 seconds.
• Added ally spectator view instead of the death blackout, with left/right arrow target selection and an arena overview when no ally remains.
• Clearing a wave or completing a round with a surviving ally releases fallen participants from the remaining resurrection wait.
