PocketMine-MP/changelogs/5.28.md

5.28.0

Released 9th May 2025.

This is a support release for Minecraft: Bedrock Edition 1.21.80.

Plugin compatibility: Plugins for previous 5.x versions will run unchanged on this release, unless they use internal APIs, reflection, or packages like the pocketmine\network\mcpe or pocketmine\data namespace. Do not update plugin minimum API versions unless you need new features added in this release.

WARNING: If your plugin uses the pocketmine\network\mcpe namespace, you're not shielded by API change constraints. Consider using the mcpe-protocol directive in plugin.yml as a constraint if you're using packets directly.

General

• Added support for Minecraft: Bedrock Edition 1.21.80.
• Removed support for earlier versions.

Fixes

• AvailableEnchantmentRegistry now requires provided tags to always be string. Previously, this wasn't enforced, leading to random crashes in core code related to enchanting.
• Entity->setFireTicks() and Entity->setOnFire() now truncate the fire time to the max value instead of throwing exceptions.

Internals

• Improved PHPStan error reporting for unsafe foreaches. Foreach on an array with implicit keys now generates different errors than foreach on an array with string keys.

5.28.1

Released 17th May 2025.

Fixes

• Fixed errors when PlayStation players attempt to join due to null TitleID.

5.28.2

Released 17th May 2025.

Fixes

• Fixed version constraints which were incorrectly updated during the 1.21.80 update. This led to an unnoticed failure to update BedrockProtocol in the previous patch release.
• Actually fixed PlayStation issues this time
