getName() essentially serves as an ID for the command for CommandExecutors. It has no other sane use case.
Since it's not unique (multiple commands with the same name may be registered, and the fallback alias will be used on conflict), it cannot be used for array indexing. It's also not correct to use it for any display purpose, since the command may not be able to be invoked by its 'name' if there was a conflict.
There is an open debate about what to do with getName() and the wider CommandExecutor ecosystem, but that's a topic for another discussion.
closes#5344
this avoids duplicate timings entries when command labels are changed and changed back, or if multiple command maps are in use.
In addition, it also solves some PHPStan issues :)
this is an implicit BC break, since plugins may assume that the packets in this array aren't going to change.
However, in practice, it's not likely to cause any real issues.
This allows plugins to modify the entity via setters in EntitySpawnEvent without their changes getting overwritten by setter calls directly after the 'new YourEntity' statement.
As well as benefiting plugins, this also clears a path for a BC-breaking change in PM5 (to have the programmer use addEntity() to spawn entities, instead of the constructor doing it, which will improve on a number of data handling aspects).
fixes#4973
This targets next-minor because it has some side effects on plugins that depended on the old behaviour, such as VanillaHopper, so it's not suitable for a patch release.
This function adds "base" format to a string. The given formats are inserted directly after any RESET code in the sequence.
An example of where this is needed is in the logger.
Without this change, the following code:
$logger->notice("I'm a " . TextFormat::RED . "special" . TextFormat::RESET . " cookie");
causes the "cookie" part of the message to show as grey, instead of the expected aqua for NOTICE level messages.
There are also many workarounds for this problem throughout the server, mostly in command outputs, being forced to use WHITE instead of RESET to avoid breaking the logger output.
