✨ What's New

• Added Storage API (api.common.storage.v1) for persistent data storage at three scopes:
  • DataStore interface (extends NBTSerializable) for storable data
  • DataStoreType<T> record with factory, registered to the DATA_STORE_TYPES registry
  • DataStoreManager interface with getGlobal(), getLevel(), and getChunk() methods
  • Global scope: server-wide data, saved on MinecraftServer#saveEverything
  • Level scope: per-dimension data, saved on ServerLevel#save
  • Chunk scope: per-chunk data with region-based file persistence (32x32 chunks per region)
  • Data is stored per-mod under {world}/blib/data_storage/{namespace}/:
    • Global: global/{path}.nbt
    • Level: levels/{dimension}/{path}.nbt
    • Chunk: levels/{dimension}/chunks/r32.{rx}.{rz}.nbt
  • Region files encode the region size in both the filename and NBT data for forward compatibility
  • Lazy loading: data is loaded from disk on first access
  • Region reference counting: cached region data is released when the last tracked chunk in a region unloads
• Added DATA_STORE_TYPES registry to BLibRegistries and BLibBuiltInRegistries
• Added BLibMod#storage() method to access storage through the mod facade
• Added BLibStorageAccess for type-safe data store access
• Added BLibServerSaveEvent, BLibLevelSaveEvent, BLibChunkSaveEvent, and BLibChunkUnloadEvent
• Added BLibEventAccess#onServerSave(), onLevelSave(), onChunkSave(), and onChunkUnload() event accessors
• Added Faction API (api.common.faction.v1) for persistent, type-safe faction management:
  • FactionManager interface for creating, accessing, and removing factions
  • FactionType<T> for defining custom faction data types, registered to the FACTION_TYPES registry
  • FactionKey<T> record for type-safe faction identification (couples faction ID with its type)
  • FactionData base class for custom per-faction data
  • FactionRelationships for tracking faction members and parent-faction relationships
  • FactionMember sealed interface with Entity and SubFaction variants
  • FactionDataError sealed interface with UnknownType and TypeMismatch error variants
  • Type-validated data access returning Result<T, FactionDataError> to prevent type mismatches
  • Shard-based persistence (1000 entries per shard, dirty-tracking for incremental saves)
  • Reverse entity-to-faction index for efficient UUID-to-faction lookups via FactionManager#getFactionIds(UUID)
  • Automatic faction membership cleanup when non-player entities are killed or discarded
• Added FACTION_TYPES registry to BLibRegistries and BLibBuiltInRegistries
• Added BLibMod#factions() method to access factions through the mod facade
• Added BLibFactionAccess for type-safe faction access
• Added BLibEntityRemoveEvent for entity removal events (provides Entity and RemovalReason)
• Added BLibEventAccess#onEntityRemove() event accessor
• Added BLibFactionRemoveEvent for faction removal events
• Added BLibEventAccess#onFactionRemove() event accessor
• Added Dirty interface (api.common.util.v1) for reusable dirty-tracking
• Added Reputation API (api.common.reputation.v1) for asymmetric reputation tracking:
  • ReputationManager interface for reputation operations
  • ReputationKey sealed interface with Faction(ResourceLocation) and Entity(UUID) variants
  • ReputationData class for holding a subject's outgoing reputation map (implements Dirty)
  • Supports faction-to-faction, faction-to-entity, entity-to-faction, and entity-to-entity relationships
  • Asymmetric design: A's reputation toward B is independent of B's reputation toward A
  • Shard-based persistence (1000 entries per shard, dirty-tracking for incremental saves)
  • Reverse incoming index for efficient cleanup when subjects are removed
• Added BLibMod#reputation() method to access reputation through the mod facade
• Added BLibReputationAccess for reputation access
• Added /blib operator commands (permission level 2) for debugging and management:
  • /blib factions create|remove|add-member|remove-member|list — faction management
  • /blib reputation get|set|remove — reputation management between factions and entities

♻️ Changes

• Renamed server lifecycle event methods for consistency (prefixed with "on"):
  • onServerStarted() (replaces serverStarted())
  • onServerStarting() (replaces serverStarting())
  • onServerStopped() (replaces serverStopped())
  • onServerStopping() (replaces serverStopping())
• Deprecated serverStarted(), serverStarting(), serverStopped(), serverStopping() for removal

🔬 Technical Changes

• Split BLibDataStoreManager into dedicated sub-managers:
  • BLibGlobalDataStoreManager for server-wide stores
  • BLibLevelDataStoreManager for per-dimension stores
  • BLibChunkDataStoreManager for region-based chunk stores
  • DataStoreIO for shared file I/O utilities
• Added mixins for save and chunk event dispatch:
  • MixinMinecraftServer_SaveGlobalData hooks into saveEverything()
  • MixinServerLevel_Events hooks into save() and unload()
  • MixinChunkMap_SaveChunkData hooks into ChunkMap#save()
• Added BLibGlobalEvents.SERVER_SAVE, LEVEL_SAVE, CHUNK_SAVE, and CHUNK_UNLOAD global event handles
• Added ShardUtil utility for shard index calculations and dirty shard detection
• Added BLibFactionManager internal implementation with shard-based IO and reverse entity index

• Added ReputationDataIO and ReputationIO for reputation persistence
• Added ReputationDataSerializer for reputation NBT serialization
• Extracted FactionMemberIndex from BLibFactionManager for cleaner separation of concerns

• Added BLibCommandSuggestions utility with suggestion providers for faction IDs and faction type IDs
• Added BLibFactionCommands, BLibReputationCommands, and BLibGOAPCommands command implementations
• Added BLibCommands init class for registering the /blib command tree

v0.2.1

✍️ Developer Notes

• For help or other questions, concerns, etc. check out our Discord server: https://discord.gg/wp7mvmbkVb

☢️ Breaking Changes

• Removed MixinLivingEntity_ApplyArmorEffects - the automatic fire resistance armor behavior is no longer built-in. Use the new onEntityTick() event to implement custom armor set effects.

✨ What's New

• Added BLibEntityTickEvent - a new event fired on every entity tick.
• Added onEntityTick() to BLibEventAccess for registering entity tick listeners.
• Added KeyedAccess interface for key-value access patterns (moved to com.blib.api.common.util.v1).

♻️ Changes

• Moved KeyedAccess from com.blib.api.common to com.blib.api.common.util.v1.

🐞 Fixes

• Fixed potential crash during decorated pot sherd pattern rendering.

🔬 Technical Changes

• Added global event dispatch system via BLibGlobalEventHandle and BLibGlobalEvents for efficient cross-mod event invocation.
• Added BLibGlobalOnlyEventHandle for BLib-specific events that don't have platform (Fabric/NeoForge) equivalents.

v0.2.0

✍️ Developer Notes

• For help or other questions, concerns, etc. check out our Discord server: https://discord.gg/wp7mvmbkVb

☢️ Breaking Changes

• Merged AzureLib into BLib (with permission from AzureLib's maintainer).
  • This means BLib (and its dependents) no longer require AzureLib.
• Restructured entire project into api/internal packaging.
  • Previously there was only an internal package, with an unofficial API, now there is a dedicated API package.
  • Any classes in the API package are guaranteed to maintain backwards compatibility according to the mod's semantic version.
• Numerous breaking changes to all previously existing classes.
  • Many classes have been renamed or moved. If you can no longer find a BLib class in your project, it likely has a different name. Please reach out for migration assistance in our Discord if you get stuck!
• Updated just-goap to 0.3.0.
  • just-goap was mostly rewritten. Please consult that project's changelog for migration guidance.

✨ What's New

• Added ShapedRecipeBuilder#into(ItemStack).
• Added ShapelessRecipeBuilder#into(ItemStack).
• Added a new "property" API for managing simple property files.
