Horizon 2026.10.18.06: Modpacks and server hosting, dedicated server and 6 more changes — release notes

· v2026.10.18.06 · 5b62d771bb · GitHub ↗

The launcher installs and updates the game — no need to grab these archives by hand. You need your own Minecraft: Java Edition.

Binaries removed (licence cleanup, see #6741); tags and source remain.

New

  • Server players finish vanilla's FULL square, not a 1.5x circle (#806)
  • Creaking hearts: scan only sections whose palette holds a heart (#793)
  • Dedicated server: never mesh sections (#813)
  • Modpacks and server hosting: modpacks-4's #753–#765 and server-host-5's #759–#790 combined (#823)

Fixed

  • Specialize constant surface material-rule branches (#801)
  • Server: a dead guest is sent its health of 0, as ServerPlayer.doTick does (#807)
  • Server titles: /title reaches the guest, and its HUD shows and clears them (#808)
  • Command suggestions: ask the server for nodes the tree marks ask_server (#809)
