Changelog

1.2.8

• Fixed revoked admin+debug access remaining cached and stopped treating cross-platform accounts with the same numeric suffix as the same administrator.
• Fixed Guilds membership and ward projection refreshes, including stale join/leave data and prefixed or bare Steam account IDs, while keeping other platform identities distinct.
• Fixed host-only and temporarily deferred ward minimap refreshes so local pins update without remote peers and queued server refreshes retry after index preparation.
• Reworked automatic pickup protection to run the vanilla AutoPickup method while temporarily excluding denied drops, with exception-safe item-state restoration.
• Made temporary interaction, portal, and pickup restriction scopes exception-safe so failed calls cannot affect later ward access checks.
• Fixed valid empty permitted-player snapshots being treated as invalid and bounded snapshot backfill work for stale or malformed entries.
• Hardened managed-ward placement and minimap snapshot RPCs with malformed-packet checks, request throttling, and bounded pending queues.
• Changed newly generated STUWard.yml files to use empty ward_limit_overrides; sample Steam account entries are now comments instead of active mappings.

1.2.7

• Fixed ward activation and deactivation VFX/SFX on dedicated servers by assigning the single networked effect spawn to the requesting client after server authorization.

• Added a server-side prefab fallback for ward toggle effects when no live ward instance was loaded.
