RIZZASTERRizzaster Client Versions and Mod Pack Meeting Notes

The meeting focused on ensuring all players are using the correct client version and mod pack to maintain stability and compatibility across the server. It was agreed that the current mod pack will be supported until the end of the next quarter, after which a new version will be prepared. Volunteers will be assigned to test the new mod pack in advance and report any issues before the official update. The team also discussed the need for clearer communication about version changes to avoid confusion among players.
A decision was made to create a simple changelog document that will be updated with each mod pack release, outlining the key features, bug fixes, and any known issues. This will be hosted in the server’s shared folder and linked in the main server announcements. The team also considered the possibility of creating a basic tutorial video for new players on how to install and verify their client version and mod pack, but this will be put on hold until resources allow.
There remains an open question about how to handle players who are still using outdated versions after the official cutoff date. It was suggested that a grace period be implemented, during which older versions would still be allowed but with limited access to certain features or areas of the game. Another point raised was the need for a way to automatically check player versions and notify them if they’re out of date, though this would require additional development work that isn’t currently feasible.
