Fav Blockia's new patch notes are here, and with them, some changes players may not be expecting, or a late update, if I am being honest. It's kind of small, but it is also a test build for our new blog post system with the test site that we plan on using for patch notes from now on to help keep people better in the loop than just in our Discord server. Without further ado, our patch notes.
Global Changes:
+ Added Slime Block to our Server Network backend to help make our process much smoother when we launch the server to our test servers soon.
- Removed our Christmas music selection; it will be back next year.
As I said, it's not a big change-log as I have been working more with our website over the last month while testing and configuring things like this.
With that being said, here are some changes done to the website in the recent messing around I did this week:
Website Changes:
+ A Blog tag system so players know what our blog posts are about.
+ Updates to our Permission Lookup system (still being worked on at this time, so I won't spoil much for it yet).
+ Added the Fancy SMP Season 2 server information page.
+ I did some backend testing of our new ticket system, which is included in the new website test for players to be able to submit tickets for our team to look at (only me at the moment because this software does cost an arm and a leg for a small team).
+ Started building a live chat on the server site so players have another way of contacting our team.
+ Updated the blog system to also have a comment section and show tags on the side of the blog post.
With that being said, I am still working behind the scenes on other changes, not relating to Season 2 at this current moment, but it is on the long to-do list that I am tackling slowly as I go, and I do apologize for any delays in updates there may be while I work on things behind the scenes.
Update 1-11-26 @ 9:35 pm EST:
A bug was reported to our team earlier today, and upon investigating the issue, we noticed this was a bigger bug than originally reported to us. As such, a quick hot fix and server restart have been pushed, and things seem to be working now.
The bug was the following: when pressing Shift + F and pressing F again or Shift+F while in that menu (the key used to sort player chests), players were able to obtain barriers and other menu-related items that are not normally allowed in the server. Upon testing to confirm the bug with the video provided by the user, we found another bug that would also allow players to store things in the menu, causing them to lose their entire inventory. As compensation, since the scale of the bug was bigger than originally reported, and was only half of the bug. the player reporting it has received special compensation for finding a major gameplay-breaking bug. We thank you all for the support recently and apologize. This was a bug that skated through our internal Maintenance testing, and we will do better to make sure this doesn't happen again.

We apologize for the inconvenience caused by this bug and will compensate any players affected by the bug IF the player needs compensation.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention!
