Changelog

[0.17.4-beta] - 2025-11-30

Changed:

• #372 Trainers will no longer force players that are actively looking into a container into a battle (player inventory does not count)

Fixed:

• #371 Pokemon from players attacking trainers that are targeting/looking at their owners

Removed:

• #370 Possibility to summon trainer entites with /summon (use /rctmod trainer summon instead)

Changelog

[0.17.3-beta] - 2025-11-29

Fixed:

• #369 Desync issue with displayed player level cap in a trainer card

Changelog

[0.17.2-beta] - 2025-11-27

Changed:

• #368 The maxLevelDiff to spawn trainers will now scale linearly with a players level relative to 100. It will never go below 4 (unless explicitly set to a lower value). An exception to this are key trainers, who always may spawn with a level difference up to maxLevelDiff (basically as it worked before with all trainers).

Fixed:

• #367 Spawn chances for trainers not getting properly reduced with larger level difference to a player

Changelog

[0.17.1-beta] - 2025-11-24

Changed:

• #362 Trainers displaying wrong reward level caps if they are followed by (stronger) optional trainers
• #361 Trainers not following players that are holding a trainer card if they could battle against them (they will stop following if directly being looked at to still allow them to force battles)
• #360 Trainers staring at players that cannot battle against them

Removed:

• #359 Log message when trainer id of an entitiy changes
• #358 Trainer response for player level cap being too low (as this may not be a reason for refusing battles anymore)

Changelog

[0.17.0-beta] - 2025-11-22

Added:

• #357 Config option forceBattleLookTicks: Number of ticks a player needs to stare at a trainer to get forced into a battle
• #356 Config option forceBattleMaxDistance: Max distance at which trainers can force players into a battle

• #351 Update min dependency of Cobblemon to 1.7.0

[0.16.11-beta] - 2025-11-22

Added:

• #348 Data pack property initialLevelCap and relativeLevelCap for series: Overwrites the global config value for a series if set

• #342 Trainers will no longer refuse battles against players with a lower level cap than the trainer level (they will still refuse for other reasons, e.g. carrying pokemon above the level cap or missing defeats against other trainers)

Fixed:

• #341 Adjusted displayed level caps in various locations (e.g. trainer card) to better reflect the actual progression of a player
• #340 Inconsistencies if trainers depend on others from different series (these dependencies are now ignored and a warning is printed to the log)

• #329 Default value of config option uniqueTrainerRadius from -1 to 500
• #328 Slightly adjusted trainer npc behaviour (small chance to hang out at a location for a few seconds)
• #327 Trainer Repel Rod can now be disabled by powering it with redstone
• #326 Trainer Repel Rod now additionally alters the behaviour of trainers in its area of effect causing them to wander away from it (now actually living up to its name)

Fixed:

• #325 Some issues with chunk registration of Trainer Repel Rods (while previously placed repel rods should automatically be affected by this fix if you feel that for some reason a rod is not working try breaking and replacing it)
