Hello Skripters 👋

Today we're releasing version 2.6.4 which brings out a couple fixes towards Minecraft versions below 1.14

📢 End of 1.12.2 Support

As mentioned in the previous releases, we have decided to drop support for 1.12 and lower (legacy versions) in Skript 2.7.
This means that Skript 2.6.X is the last version that will work with the legacy versions.
Only critical fixes will be backported to 2.6.X.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a bug where if the lifetime value of a firework launch was greater than 127 or less than 0, it would throw an error. (thanks @DelayedGaming)
  • Fixed a bug where the offhand tool of player was incorrect in the PlayerHeldItem event. (#5094 thanks @TUCAOEVER)
  • Fixed variable names with long numbers either taking long parsing time, or not being able to compare with another similar number. (#4729, #3929)
  • Fixed ExprTimePlayed not working on versions 1.13-1.14 (#4929)
  • Fixed VariableString#isQuoted to work correctly, should be returning false for the input string " (with withQuotes=true). (#5149)
  • Fixed a bug where the component type of the returned array from ExprEntities not being the return type (e.g. Player), but a generic Entity instead, in the case that the syntax was used with radius, and no entities matched the query. (#5124)
  • Fixed a bunch of issues relating to conversion for list-modifying expressions.
  • Fixed an issue with how EffPotion interacted with patterns for potioneffects and potioneffecttypes (#5117) (thanks @Fusezion)
