Change Log & Future Updates
LAST UPDATED: OCTOBER 20, 2026
October 20, 2026 Release
Current VersionPrefix commands have been removed and automatic host link detection is no longer supported. The Bot may allow authorized users to export and import operational Bot data. Server administrators and moderators should regularly use /data export and /data import as a best practice to back up runtime data in case the Bot is updated, restarted, or redeployed.
- Architecture & Prefix Removal: Completely removed all legacy prefix commands (p. commands) and automatic message-parsing features across the entire bot codebase and documentation. Disabled automatic chat-based Forest link detection to prevent inaccurate timers and reliance on Message Content Intent restrictions.
- Host & Image Enhancements: Enhanced
/plant imageso users can save a default host image that automatically applies whenever they host a session, complete with an image preview feature. Added the admin-level/assign plant imagecommand to assign default host images for other users. Refined image override logic: specifying an explicit image_url parameter in/hostoverrides the user's saved default image, while omitting images entirely prevents broken embeds. - Stats & Leaderboard Redesign: Redesigned plant stats embeds to feature the user's avatar as a thumbnail and display their saved plant image as the main banner embed. Maintained compact, paginated layouts for stats and leaderboards to ensure stability within Discord embed size limits. Integrated history modifications allowing moderators to edit or delete existing finished logs via
/assign plant modify. - Data Management Updates: Updated
/data summary,/data export, and/data importcommands to provide public responses instead of ephemeral ones, including full preservation of user image preferences. - Help & Documentation Overhaul: Updated the public
/helppanels and comprehensive guide manuals to reflect exclusive slash-command usage, removing all references to prefix commands or text-matching workflows. Completely rewrote and updated the Privacy Policy and Terms of Service drafts.
