Hey everyone! As a few of you might have noticed, we’ve made the decision to postpone the release of 1.19.1 and we're now going back into pre-release mode. This is in order to address a few of our more noticeable issues. We've yet to fully decide on a new release date, but it won't be too far in the future.

We’ve received a lot of feedback regarding the Player Chat Report feature, which is something we address specifically in a newly released post here, as well as in our FAQ which hopefully answers all your questions!

Changes in 1.19.1 Pre-Release 2

We've added the ability to see the signing status of chat messages – this is so you can easily tell when a server is tampering with, or removing the signing security of, their players' messages.

Chat Trust Status

Messages that are not signed with the Secure Chat system, or have been tampered with by the server will now be marked
- Messages with missing or invalid signatures are marked as "Not Secure"
- Messages that are detected as modified are marked as "Modified"
The trust status of messages are displayed with both a colored indicator and an icon
- The colored indicator is always visible
- The icon is only visible when the chat screen is open
Hovering over the icon will provide more information about the trust status
- For modified messages, the original secure text will also be displayed in the tooltip

Technical changes in 1.19.1 Pre-Release 2

Chat Types

Chat types added to the chat_types registry are now only used for player chat, and not system messages
- The system and game_info chat types have been removed
Chat types have been simplified and are now only required to define chat and narration decorations
- Chat types no longer support overlays
- A system message should instead be used to display overlays
