2026-03-02

Highlights

• New option: unlockAllVariantsOnFirstUnlock (unlocking an identity can unlock all its variants).
• Spider and Cave Spider identities now move normally through cobwebs.
• Variant unlocks are now more consistent and reliable.
• Better automatic variant detection for more mobs.

Fixes

• Fixed an issue where returning to human could leave you with very low hearts after tiny morphs (like salmon).
• Improved overall morph stability in gameplay.

Respawn Progression Sync Fix

Fixes

• Added a proper custom data merge from the old player entity to the new respawned entity.
• Rebuilt the unlock cache on respawn and forced a fresh packet sync.
• Synced both identity2.unlocked_identities_cache and identity2.unlocked_identity_variants_cache after respawn so the client UI stays aligned with server progression data.

Why this was needed

• Unlocks could appear to reset after death or respawn even though the data still existed server side.
• The morph UI reads cached values, so stale or missing cache sync could show an empty unlock list.

New in this update

• Variant support has been heavily improved for both vanilla and modded mobs.
• The game now attempts to automatically discover variant types instead of relying only on hardcoded lists.
• Morph variant data is now saved and applied generically, improving compatibility with special mob forms.
• Variant entries are deduplicated, preventing repeated forms in the UI.
• Illusioner abilities are now fully integrated into the morph system.
• Removed an accidental duplicate mixin.

Fixes

• Fixed Ender Dragon dying when morphing into it.
• Fixed missing config file generation.
• Fixed entities not being properly immune in Creative mode.
• Fixed entities slowly descending when not holding the jump key.
• Began addressing the loseAllMorphsOnDeath issue. This fix is still in progress and remains in beta.

What this means for players

• More mobs should correctly display their different forms in the morph UI.
• Modded mobs with multiple forms are now far more likely to work without custom integration.
• Existing vanilla variants such as sheep colors and other known forms continue to function properly.
