• Implemented per-world access and build permissions.
• Changed worlds.txt format to worlds.xml. Your old worlds.txt file will be converted automatically.
• New world-related commands:

 /wmain changes the main world
 /waccess and /wbuild allow setting per-world permissions
 /wremove allows deleting worlds
 /wrename allows renaming worlds without reloading
/wload command is significantly improved (see /help wload for more info). The functionality of the old /load command has been merged with /wload. Now /load is an alias for /join, together with /l, /j, and /goto.

• Removed SaveAndLoad permission - it became redundant with ManageWorlds. Please check your config to ensure that permissions remain consistent.
• Added new and previously-missing (/lockall, /unlockall, /where, /me, /rules, /setspawn) commands to /help.
• Disabled verify-names check for localhost (127.0.0.1) when running in Balanced mode.

• Fixed a potential desync issue when one player rejoins a world, and another joins it simultaneously.
• Removed /genh command and /compass alias for the /where command.
• Added a fail-safe exception check when executing console commands. Now the server will stay up even if an exception occurs while executing console command.

"default map" is now referred to as "main world" for consistency. 

• Improved garbage collection.

0.405

• Added back support for vanilla (server_level.dat) maps.

• Fixed visual player list not updating in fCraftUI.
• Added /players command to list ALL players on the server (in all worlds)
• Made the BlockType parameter optional for /cuboid and /ellipsoid. Now it takes blocktype of the second click (or last-previously-used-blocktype when using /mark) in the absence of the optional parameter.
• ConfigTool: Added a new tab for IRC setting.
• ConfigTool: Fixed a bug that prevented the last 2 checkboxes on the permission list from being saved properly.

• IRC: Fixed a bug with infinite reconnects on receiving error 433 Nickname already in use.
• Zones: Changed behavior of overlapping zones:

 - Before: To touch a block, AT LEAST ONE zone has to allow it
 - Now: To touch a block, ALL ZONES have to allow it

• Zones: Added /ztest command that lists all zones affecting a particular block. It can be used to detect and resolve zone overlaps.
• Zones: Added proper /help entries for /zone, /zones, /zremove, and /ztest, and contextual help for /zone and /zones.

• Drawing-related state is now reset when changing worlds.
• Added a limiter to the number of block updates that can be processed per tick (even if there are no players in a world). Fixes server becoming unresponsive when doing enormous drawing commands (millions of blocks).

0.401

*IDLE/AFK CHECKING* This is configurable per-class.

• Added /version command, and added revision to the version string.

• Fixed players not spawning in the right place when changing worlds.
• IRC Bot will now handle terminations by the IRCd and restart itself upon any errors.
• IRC Bot can now send from inside the server TO IRC! Use the prefix '#' in-game to send any message to IRC. Forwarding all server chat may be added if requested. To send from the bot to the server, use the bot's nickname and either ':', ',' or nothing, then your message.
• Improved performance of the IRC bot and the task scheduler.
• Fixed a bug with getting the server url from the externalurl.txt file crashing the IRC MessageHandler() when the file didn't exist. FORWARD_ALL is now enabled for both SERVER and IRC for 100% transparent chatting.
• Fixed a bug in the server-to-irc code that forwarded a blank message if there was nothing after '#' in server chat.
• Handshake packet is now written when doing /join, to replace MOTD with a more informative "Now loading [worldname]".

0.400

*MULTIWORLD*. It's finally here. See /help for information on new commands: /worlds, /wload, /join

• Added a persistent world list, saved in worlds.txt - this is subject to change. The file contains a list of world names, each corresponding to an .fcm file. The first world listed at the top of worlds.txt is the default/main one.

*IRC BOT*. Thanks to the efforts by Destroyer661, fCraft now has an optional IRC bot for relaying chat and commands.

• A field has been added in the config to allow forwarding ALL IRC CHANNEL TRAFFIC to the server. This will override the prefix and make it inactive. 'IRCBotForwardAll' is set to false by default.

*ZONES*. It is now possible to make guest zones and op zones (and anything in-between) on any map. See /help for information on new commands: /zones, /zone, /zremove.

• Added 2 new permissions: ManageZones and ManageWorlds. You might need to update your config.xml to add these permissions to appropriate classes.
