v0.5.1 - 26.1+ Support

This update adds official support for 26.1.1 and 26.1.2

v0.5.0 - All the versions!

This update brings support for many different versions than the latest, in some cases all the way down to 1.8.8 up to 26.1! I plan on expanding all server types to go down to 1.8.8 and the latest version, just the modded platforms take a bit longer! Here is a full list of supported versions now: | Version | Support Range | |------------|----------------| | Spigot | 1.8.8 -> 26.1 | | Paper* | 1.8.8 -> 26.1 | | Fabric | 1.20 -> 26.1 | | Neoforge** | 1.20.4 -> 26.1 | \* With paper before 1.21.4 you can use the spigot, as paper specific plugins didn't really exist before that \** Neoforge doesn't offer support for below 1.20.4, so I have to do some digging to find information

v0.4.4 - Yet Another Fix for Velocity

So sorry that this update took so long, I was celebrating Thanksgiving with family and was unable to work on the project! This update fixes the issue of the plugin disabling itself on Velocity, while copying events around I accidentally copied the disable method into the player join method so whenever a player joined the plugin got disabled. So it has been fixed!

v0.4.3 - Fix for Velocity

This update patches 2 issues with velocity: 1. The mysql library wasn't being downloaded properly 2. Users wouldn't be authed due to the fact that Velocity hard bakes their url with /session/minecraft/hasJoined into it and it was messing with the authentication.

v0.4.2 - Fixed Update Checker

There was a small oversight with the update checker where it only checked for the newest version, which works great, until I release a patch for a specific loader. So I updated it to check the latest version and loader to ensure that you get update notifications for your server only!

v0.4.0 - Update Checker

Update Checker

I have added a simple update checker so that you can always be notified when there is a new release! It will notify the staff with the permission alwaysauth.admin and notify console when the server is started. This feature can be disabled within the config by disabling check-updates ---

Other Things

I aso removed some annoying debug messages that were left over from me testing the config system. As well as some other non-necessary messages

0.3.0 - Authentication & New Versioning Scheme

Authentication

Firsts things first, Authentication! I've added a simple secret key that is required to access the AlwaysAuth auth server instance, this will stop people from creating fake authentication requests. On top of this the database will now have the ip address encrypted with the same secret key, this will ensure any database leaks do not leak people's ip's (unless someone got a hold of your secret key as well).

New Config Options

The config is setup to auto update, so you shouldn't have to regenerate it or anything. But just so you know there are two new values:

authentication-enabled=true
secret-key=GENERATED ON STARTUP

Standalone Servers

If you are using a standalone instance for multiple servers, simply all the servers need to match the standalone instance's secret key, and then they will be able to connect to the standalone server.

Disabling Authentication

If you so choose you can disable authentication which can leave you open to possible false authentication attacks on your server, this is highly not recommended but left as an option if you so choose too for whatever reason.

Note this will not disable the database IP encryption.

New Version Scheme

I will be implementing (properly) the SemVer format which follows the

Major.Minor.Patch

format, so right now we are on Major version 0, Minor version 3, and Patch version 0.

0.0.2 - Slim Jars + Dependencies Fixed

The dependencies for Paper and Spigot were improperly setup so databases were unable to connect too, this should now be fixed. As well as Velocity going from 11MB -> 33KB as I implemented a dependency downloader that downloads libraries at runtime.
