(Also known as "A New Seat" update)

Note: Starting a small experiment to try and categorize the new stuff in each update log.

Note if you're updating from an older version:

• Be sure to uninstall the previous version before moving up to v19d1.
• The code has been reworked to include all the new stuff from 1.19.4, and has also been optimized to run even better, too!
  • That also means that old stuff from previous versions won't run in v19d1, so if you want to keep things clean, uninstall v19c1 before updating!

Important Changes:

• Is now designed for Minecraft 1.19.4 and higher.
  • It's not advised to run this in older versions, I won't be able to provide much support if you do.
    (Imagine having to do that for all older versions for all my datapacks, you'll see a scale issue)
• You can now sit underwater!
• You can now sit on Fences, Walls and Fence Gates!
  • You must be able to stand on top of the Fence in order to sit on it.
  • Fence Gates must be closed in order to be sat on.
    (which is kinda obvious, but still mentioning it just in case!)
• For lower stair blocks: The sitting position is now always on the lower half of the block.
• Sitting on top of Chests now locks it up while you're sitting on it.
• The codebase was also redesigned for 1.19.4 to include some new features as well as making them run better overall.
  • The new approach came at a cost though: The cushion's been removed.
    I'll find a way to bring it back in the future, but for now it is what it is.
• Fixed a case where you'd get "Time to Sit Down!" advancement¹ without having to sit in a seat.
  • Because of this, "Time to Sit Down!" completion has been reset for everyone.
  • The advancement's EXP reward was also shifted to 15, from 10.
• Removed more items from the valid items to sit in list.
  • Some items removed: Boats, Minecarts, End Crystal, Cocoa Beans, Sweet/Glow Berries, ...
  • These items are selected because you might sit down when you don't want to, but did because you absentmindedly crouched at the time.
  • Another note: You can still use everything when you've sat down.

Non-gameplay changes:²

• Codebase now runs on Scripter 3.1.
  • Actually the entire code was reworked from scratch to apply all the new stuff 1.19.4 has to offer.
  • BlockSeat should perform a lot better because of this.
• Yes, "Time to Sit Down!" used to be "Time to Rest!".
  • Might change it again later if I got a better name for it.
• TheDiamondPlayables is now colored in dark aqua by design. (grey-ish aqua?)
  • The old design feels more vanilla, but it doesn't sit right with me.
    Seeing a gray TheDiamondPlayables just feel ... off.

Footnotes:

1: previously known as "Time to Rest!"
2: Just me polishing some stuff in the background.

• Here's the real secret: I've been doing all this since 2018, but ad revenue alone is tiny compared to the time it took to research, develop, test, and maintain all this for free.
  • As a result, most of my days are swallowed by other work just to keep the lights on.
  • With your help though, I'll be able to go full-time: Faster updates, better tools, and many more features.
    Together, we don’t just keep this going, we build it into what it was always meant to be.
  • So help me keep the lights on here, and have fun with BlockSeat!
