Changelog v5.0.0

AR1 Backup — a reliable mod for automatic Minecraft world backups.

---

🆕 Additions

• Choose backup storage folder
  Now you can select where to store backups:

  • ★ Game directory — standard backups folder in the server root.
  • ☆ Custom path — any absolute or relative path (e.g., D:\Backups or ./my_backups).
    The setting is synchronized with the mod menu and available via commands.

• /backup path command
  Manage storage location right from chat or console:

  • /backup path game — switch to the game folder.
  • /backup path set <path> — set a custom path.
  • /backup path show — display current mode and actual path.

• Grouped backups in /backup list
  The list is now grouped by drives (root folders). For each drive, total size and file list are displayed. Overall total size is shown at the end.

• Path info in /backup info
  The command now shows the full absolute path to the backup file — you always know where it is located.

---

⚙️ Improvements

• Dynamic hiding of the path field in the menu
  When ★ Game directory is selected, the Custom path field is automatically hidden/disabled to avoid confusion.

• Better feedback when setting a path
  After /backup path set, the actual absolute path is shown in chat so you can see exactly where backups will be saved (e.g., C:\Server\my_backups).

• Enhanced path validation
  Folder existence and write permissions are now checked, catching all errors (invalid characters, Cyrillic, missing drives). On error, backup is not created and a clear message is shown in chat.

• Clean code without deprecated APIs
  The settings screen is rewritten using ConfigBuilder, eliminating deprecated methods and ensuring stability.

---

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Fixed issue where customBackupPath was not synced with the menu after changing via commands.
• Fixed incorrect size display in /backup list for large values.
• Fixed handling of paths with quotes ("D:\Backups") – quotes are now automatically removed.
• Fixed compiler warnings (unused variables, ResultOfMethodCallIgnored).
• Fixed issue where in GAME_DIR mode, list only showed backups from one drive – now all saved folders are scanned.

---

📦 Compatibility

• Minecraft: 1.21.11
• Loader: Fabric
• Required dependencies: Fabric API, Cloth Config (>=17.0.144), ModMenu (>=17.0.0)

---

📝 Note for administrators

When upgrading from version 4.x, the storage path is preserved automatically. We recommend checking the current path with /backup path show and updating it if necessary.
