Minecraft 1.20.2-rc1

I have updated Wurst, WI Zoom and Mo Glass to support Minecraft 1.20.2-rc1.

Release candidate builds have historically been fully compatible with the final release. So if you're eager to start hacking in Minecraft 1.20.2 as soon as it comes out, you might want to download this build in preparation.

In their blog post, Mojang has also announced the release date for 1.20.2 as "next week", meaning anywhere from September 18 to September 22.

Enjoy! 🌭

quick question what do you actually change in these rc/prerelease updates?

Alexander01998

Your_average_minecrafter Not much. Most of the time, breaking changes only happen in the snapshots. I just think it's nice from a user perspective to have a dedicated build for each version, so you don't have to guess which older build might be compatible.

Also, there is no real way for me as a developer to know if a pre-release / release candidate breaks Wurst until I try to port Wurst to it. So at that point, I might as well release the result. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Although in the 1.20.2-pre3 build, I did fix a potion bug that went unnoticed during the snapshots.

thanks for the response, another question do you think the .search feature is viable for an upcoming update?

Alexander01998

Your_average_minecrafter Yes and no.

I'm kind of already working on this. I'm doing a massive refactoring of all Search-like hacks to make them easier to maintain and expand with new features. Initially this will be used to merge PortalESP, but it's necessary for basically anything involving Search, since the old Search code is such a pain to work with.

However, that doesn't mean I would change Search exactly how you described it in https://wurstforum.net/d/225-search. I need to try some different ideas before I can decide how a multi-block version of Search should work, but it's too early to do those tests right now as the refactoring isn't done yet.
