Wiki

• Updated Commands to include changes to the !team command
• Updated Food to include changes to Carrots, Beetroots, and Potatoes

General

RuneCraft has been updated to work on versions 1.20.# (Note that this means RuneCraft will no longer work on version before 1.20.# or after 1.20.#)
Changes


• The first time a player loads into a world they are now given complementary Stat Tracker, Settings menu, and Prayer book

Blocks

Bug Fixes


• Emerald blocks will no longer appear as missing textures in worlds
• Mining a mob head with silk touch will no longer duplicate it
• Llama heads will no longer clip through the players head model when worn

Commands

Changes


• Added !credits command

Combat Options

Combat options have been a requested feature for a while. Choose how you want to gain your combat XP. Using combat options players will be able to set how they want their combat XP to be gained for any weapon style. By default, all players have shared XP distributions.

• To access the combat options, interact with gear in your inventory when you first load into the world. This gear can be crafted later using a book. Additionally, players can interact with a Smithing table while holding a combat weapon and crouching.
• From here, select between "Melee" and "Ranged" combat options
• For Melee, you will 3 options to choose from:
  • Attack (Attack)
  • Defense (Defense)
  • Shared (Attack, Defense)
• For Ranged, you will have 2 options to choose from:
  • Ranged (Ranged)
  • Shared (Ranged, Defense)
• Note that you cannot disable Constitution XP from combat.

With these changes in place, it now opens up the opportunity for players to create a "pure." A pure player is one who focuses on maxing out a single skill. For example, a player could decide they want to focus all of their XP into Defense instead of Attack. This mean a player could have level 120 Defense with an Attack level of 1.

Combat XP

Combat XP has received some adjustments with the combat options. Overall, the amount of XP a player gains from combat skills is reduced, this was to incorporate a balance between all of the skills. The following are the calculations for combat experience:

*combatExperiencePool = damageDealt * 7

constitutionExperience = damageDealt * 3

*When allocating the "shared" style of combat experience, the experience rewarded to those skills is combatExperiencePool/NumberOfSkillsReceivingExperience ex. If you did 10 damage to an entity and you have 3 skills sharing the XP, you would get (10 * 7)/3 XP per skill, or roughly 23 XP per skill.

Damage Indicators

Damage indicators have been added to RuneCraft to give the world a bit more style!

• 4 types of damage indicators
• Red - Melee damage
  • A slightly altered background is displayed on critical hits
• Green - Ranged damage
• Purple - Magic damage
• White - All other damage

Food & Related

I heard your feedback. Since there is still yet to be a dedicated farming skill, farm lovers were being impacted heavily by the food changes. These changes aim to improve my relationship with farmers.
Bug Fixes


• Raw and cooked Cod now properly restores health

Changes


• Carrots, Beetroots, and Potatoes now stack to 64 and only restore 1 health

HUD System

Bug Fixes


• Fixed an issue causing a players health text to display as '0' when at low health
• Resolved an issue causing equipment with identifier lengths longer than 30 to not have their armor values displayed properly

Items

Bug Fixes


• Corrected error messages when using a Shovel/Axe that a player does not meet the requirements for

Changes


• Swords no longer cut Bamboo faster
• Axes now cut Bamboo faster

Stamina System

Bug Fixes


• Players will no longer be given the benefits of wearing graceful equipment when they do not meet the level requirements

Changes


• Optimized several aspects of the stamina system

Menu

The Menu is a handy gear crafted with any book using a crafting table.

It allows you to:

• Set Combat options
• Set Team options
• set Skill XP Outputs
• Purchase Skillcapes

Mobs

• Piglins and Piglin Brutes have had their loot tables and equipment updated

Changes


• Piglins, Piglin Brutes, and Vindicators have had their loot and equipment updated
• Tamed wolves are now healed the same amount of health as a player would receive from food
• Introduced breeding mechanics to villagers
  • You can breed villagers with bread
  • It takes 20 minutes for the villager to grow up
  • There is a 4 minute cooldown before you can breed two villagers again

Music & Sounds

Changes


• Sound files have been compressed to reduce the size of the add-on
• Music disc Relic now works with the custom jukebox
• Desert and Cherry Grove biomes have had their music updated to include OSRS music. The Desert biome introduces two new tracks from OSRS:
  • Arabian: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rptxw5O-nww&ab_channel=OldScapeMusic
  • Al Kharid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q4D0InGS0DU&ab_channel=OldScapeMusic

Skillmaster & Skillcapes

I was not happy with the Skillmaster as it posed several issues:

1. I suck at making entities
2. I suck at making animations
3. He was far too rare in the world
4. I did not want to gate people who had achieved what is the hardest thing to do in RuneCraft behind having to find a Skillmaster to purchase a Skillcape.

As such, the Skillmaster is no longer spawning in RuneCraft and Skillcapes can now be purchased through the Menu item (gear icon).

Teams

Teams have received a new coat of paint in RuneCraft update 1.3 and now uses colors to define each time. With this, an additional team has been created. Functionally there have been no changes, being in the same team as another player will prevent all damage from either player. Changes to the Commands page's team commands have been updated.

• Select between Red, Blue, Green, Orange, and Yellow team
• Players that are part of the same team will not damage each other
• Players can leave the team they are in and change them at any time
• A players team will now be displayed next to their name in chat

Scoreboard Initialization

Scoreboard initialization has now been recreated in scripting API to be much more fluid and allow modifications easily. No noticeable changes will be made to on the players side, but it will allow me to ensure smooth player experiences across all updates.

Structures

Bug Fixes


• Bastions no longer contain the vanilla golden equipment

Changes


• Bastion loot has been reworked to no longer contain any ore/mineral types aside from Black tools/ingots and Iron tools/ingots

Equipment Unusable System

The item/equipment unusable system has received a major overhaul in 1.3. It has been optimized and made versatile, allowing for easy modifications for future additions.
Changes


• Rebuilt the system using the Scripting API
• Players are now given a message when equipping/using an item they do not meet the requirements to use
• The negative effects when using a tool now only apply when a player:
• When trying to equip a piece of equipment that they do not meet the requirements for, it will automatically be unequipped from the slot
• The negative effect applied only lasts 3 seconds, but will persist until the player has switched to a different item
• The negative effects when using a tool now only apply when a player:
  • mines a block
  • hits an entity

Villager Breeding Mechanics

The goal of this change is to provide a short term fix for a long term issue. Currently villagers are unable to breed properly due to the changes to food. These changes provide a feasible way for players to breed villagers and obtain Nitwit villagers to progress the Thieving skill and normal villagers.
Changes


• Villagers can now be bred by feeding them bread
• Villagers have a 4 minute cooldown between being able to breed again
• There is a chance for additional villagers to be born when breeding them

Skills

Agility

Agility current has an unavoidable bug that creates a 1/3 chance for a player to not receive the appropriate amount of experience from fall damage. This cannot be fixed in the 1.20 version of the game, but the current preview for 1.20.10 provides some new techniques that will allow me to repair this system and make it much more reactive.
Changes


• XP Rates for Agility have been increased
• Agility no longer provides fall damage reduction
• Agility now correctly applies a bonus to stamina regeneration every 9 levels

Woodcutting

Changes


• Bamboo now gives Woodcutting XP when mined

Prayer

Bug Fixes


• Fixed miscellaneous errors that could appear when attempting to bury bones

Changes


• The Prayer orbs are now hidden on the players HUD until the player unlocks their first Prayer at level 5
• A sound is now played whenever a player buries a bone or remains

Ranged

Bug Fixes


• Fixed an issue causing a player to be unable to gain Ranged XP if they had equipped any Ranged gear that they did not meet the level requirements for and unequipped it

Thieving Rewrite

The Thieving skill has received a complete overhaul to create a better sense of pacing and a non-linear progression path. The goal with this rework is to give players more visibility, more responsiveness, and more choices.
Changes


• Unlocks for the Thieving skill have been reworked
• While attempting to steal from an entity, a bar with 3 sections will now appear above the players hotbar. Every second that passes will play a pop sound, if the player was in range a section of the bar will turn green, if not, it will turn red.
• Players must be within 3 blocks in any direction in order to be considered "within range"
• Two different sounds are now played whenever a player successfully steals/fails to steal from an entity
• XP gains when successfully stealing from an entity have been reworked
  • Players will no longer gain incredibly high amounts of additional experience by stealing from the next entity they unlock. This is so they don't feel like they are wasting time by stealing from an entity they unlocked earlier on.

Entities	Level Requirement	Experience Per Success
Nitwits	1	120
Unskilled Villagers	6	127
Fishermen & Butchers	13	134
Leatherworkers & Wandering Traders	27	148
Cartographers & Masons	34	155
Fletchers & Toolsmiths	41	162
Armorers & Weaponsmiths	47	169
Clerics & Librarians	53	176
Piglins & Pillagers	59	183
Witches & Vindicators	64	190
Evocation Illagers & Piglin Brutes	69	197

Your Thieving level also plays a significant part on your success chance and determining whether an item is enchanted or not along with what enchantments.

The higher your Thieving level, the higher your success chance is.

• Success chance is calculated as (Out of 100):

SUCCESS CHANCE = 60 + [ (YOUR THIEVING LEVEL UP TO 99 - THIEVING REQUIREMENT TO STEAL FROM ENTITY) * 0.66] + (10 : IF THE PLAYER MEETS THE REQUIREMENTS TO EQUIP THE THIEVING SKILLCAPE AND IS WEARING IT) + (5 : IF THE PLAYER IS INVISIBLE)

• The higher your thieving level, the higher chance of obtaining more enchantments on an item
  • maximum amount of enchantments an item can have is calculated as (Out of max possible enchantments):

MAX POSSIBLE ENCHANTMENTS = Math.ceil(YOUR THIEVING LEVEL - THIEVING REQUIREMENT TO STEAL FROM ENTITY ) / 5 <= (MAX POSSIBLE ENCHANTMENTS ? 7 : MAX POSSIBLE ENCHANTMENTS) ? Math.ceil(YOUR THIEVING LEVEL - THIEVING REQUIREMENT TO STEAL FROM ENTITY / 5) : Max MAX POSSIBLE ENCHANTMENTS

• The chance to continue enchanting is calculated as (Out of 100):

CHANCE TO CONTINUE ENCHANTING = (65 - (YOUR THIEVING LEVEL - THIEVING REQUIREMENT TO STEAL FROM ENTITY * 0.5) >= 40 ? 65 - (YOUR THIEVING LEVEL - THIEVING REQUIREMENT TO STEAL FROM ENTITY * 0.5) : 40)

The list of possible enchantments and those values are calculated slightly different from the rest. Base enchantments have been designated Tier 1 and Tier 2, where enchantments like Silk Touch and Looting are considered Tier 2.

• The chance of receiving a Tier 1 enchantment is calculated as (Out of total possible enchantments weight):

TIER 1 ENCHANTMENT CHANCE = TOTAL VALUYE + [​200 - (YOUR THIEVING LEVEL - THIEVING REQUIREMENT TO STEAL FROM ENTITY)]

• The chance of receiving a Tier 2 enchantment is calculated as (Out of total possible enchantments weight):

TIER 2 ENCHANTMENT CHANCE = TOTAL VALUE + [​50 - (YOUR THIEVING LEVEL - THIEVING REQUIREMENT TO STEAL FROM ENTITY)]

After the enchantment has been selected, we now need to determine the enchantment level.

• The enchantment level weight is calculated as (Out of total enchant level weight):

ENCHANTMENT LEVEL WEIGHT = (MAX ENCHANTMENT LEVEL * 100) / [​x^2 + (YOUR THIEVING LEVEL - THIEVING REQUIREMENT TO STEAL FROM ENTITY / 10)^3]

Treasure enchantments work a little differently in that they are a completely separate calculation. The higher your level, the higher the chance to receive Mending, the lower the level, the higher the chance to receive Curses.

• The chance of receiving Mending is calculated as (Out of 100):

MENDING CHANCE = [​YOUR THEIVING LEVEL - THIEVING REQUIREMENT TO STEAL FROM ENTITY) * 0.2]^1.1

• The chance of receiving Curse of Vanishing/Curse of Binding is calculated as (Out of 100):

CURSE CHANCE = 15 / [​YOUR THEIVING LEVEL - THIEVING REQUIREMENT TO STEAL FROM ENTITY) * 0.2]^1.1

General

RuneCraft has been updated to work on versions 1.19.8# (Note that this means RuneCraft will no longer work on version before 1.19.80#)

Gameplay

Bug Fixes


• • Village Blacksmith chests can once again contain Iron platelegs

• • Mob heads once again play sounds when on top of a Noteblock and interacted with

Bonus Chest

Changes


• • Bronze pickaxes and axes once again appear in bonus chests

• • rolls for pickaxes and axes have increased to 3 with a chance to get no pickaxe from a roll
    
    
    • • Developer Explanation: This change was made so that people playing in Multiplayer have a chance of getting more than a single pickaxe/axe, but also the possibility of pickaxes/axes appearing in the chest if unlucky.
    
    
    

Food

Changes


• • Food system has been improved to prevent players from momentarily having more health than possible

Items

Bug Fixes


• • Boats can now be crafted using Runecraft's wooden shovel

• • Vanilla wooden tools can no longer be crafted using warped, crimson, or mangrove planks

Changes


• • All wooden tools have been future proofed for 1.20 to include Cherry planks and Bamboo planks as repairable sources

Textures

Changes


• • The texture for all tools has been updated

Skill Initialization

Changes


• • Scoreboard creation in a world is no longer dependent on a ticking function attempting to create ~150 scoreboards, it instead utilizes a worldInitialize event with scripting to create them on world load

• • Scoreboards related to the HUD system have been removed as it now uses scripting dynamic properties

Stamina System

Bug Fixes


• • Players will no longer experience a slight delay in losing/gaining stamina right after just experiencing the opposite.
    
    
    • • Developer Explanation: If a player had just gained stamina, it would take a second before they would begin to lose stamina and vice versa.
    
    
    

Changes


• • Rebuilt the entire backend of the stamina system to be more responsive and accurate

• • Players can no longer B-hop to maintain max stamina while moving throughout the world
    
    
    • • Developer Explanation: An exploit I am referring to as B-hopping existed with the previous system that would allow players to sprint jump - stop moving (regain stamina) - sprint jump. The previous system would result in the player gaining stamina every second at the start of an animation. So at 0 seconds or right when they stopped moving they would gain stamina. The rework has shifted this to where the stamina gain is applied at the end of the second. This results in an initial delay when starting to regain stamina but a smooth regeneration afterwards.
    
    
    

Hud Optimizations

The Runecraft HUD has long been the cause of lag and performance problems for users on low end devices, and in some instances, middle of the line devices. This created issues where people would be unable to play with friends on lower end devices, or be unable to play the add-on period. This update heavily focuses performance improvements and sees a complete rewrite to the entire HUD. Visually, nothing will look different but on the backend the entire system has been rewritten.
Changes


• • server side HUD system has been moved from a ~6000 line animation controller to ~300 line script

• • A HUD update communication from the server side will now ONLY go into effect if an element has been modified

• • Only the element of the HUD modified will be communicated to the client to be updated, preventing other elements from performing redundant tasks

• • client side HUD system has been heavily optimized, going from ~3600 lines to ~300 lines

• • Utilize the title text instead of the actionbar for displaying elements to the client

• • The vanilla jukebox and mount tooltips once again display since it is no longer disabled

• • Pushed the HUD slightly further away from the hotbar
    
    
    • • *Developer Explanation: The HUD for mobile users used to clip into the hotbar due to its slightly larger size. This change separates the elements slightly so that they no longer cover the hotbar.
