    • Fixed: wrong line break position in non-space-separated languages
  • #173 Adds IPropertyContainer.getOrDefault, which falls back when the property is null. PanelButtonQuest uses it with a BigItemStack of the placeholder item for NativeProps.ICON, and OreDictTexture parameters are marked @Nonnull. ItemPlaceholder.addInformation gets generic tooltip types and its onUpdate a pattern-matching instanceof. The PR also adds a compileOnly dependency on JetBrains annotations. - @ah-OOG-ah
    • Added: getOrDefault on property containers
    • Fixed: NullPointerException in quest icon rendering when a quest has no icon
  • #172 RenderUtils.sizeStringToWidth and getStringWidth delegate to GTNHLib FontRendering when BetterQuesting.isGTNHLibLoaded. Adds a compileOnly GTNHLib 0.7.0 dependency and an after:gtnhlib@[0.7.0,) soft dependency. - @DeathFuel

Performance ​

  • #255 Implemented geometry batching through Tessellator with 4,095 quad cap, cached quest frames in display lists, added framebuffer-based icon/line caching, viewport culling, and configurable cache modes (off/low-fps/freeze) borrowed from NEI architecture. - @boubou19
    • Added: QuestFrameCache for display list caching, Viewport culling in CanvasCullingManager, Configurable cache refresh modes, Tessellator batching for dependencies, Framebuffer caching for quest icons and lines
  • #243 Adds a cached SliceMode.VALUES array and uses it in FactorySlicedTexture and SlicedTexture instead of calling values(). - @boubou19
    • Added: cached SliceMode.VALUES
  • #211 Modified CanvasScrolling, CanvasSearch, and related database panels to batch panel additions rather than adding individually, conditionally sort by depth only when needed, and reduced max panel-add time from 100ms to 10ms. - @tiffit
    • Fixed: UI lag when loading large item lists

Internal / Refactor ​

  • #239 PanelTaskItemBase.getRequiredItemText is now protected and split into protected addItemName, addOreDict, addProgress and addCompleteOrIncomplete methods so subclasses can override individual parts. - @koolkrafter5
    • Added: overridable text methods in PanelTaskItemBase
  • #235 Adds ColorUtils with ColorResource entries neiQuestNameColor and neiQuestNameHoveredColor. QuestRecipeHandler uses them, QuestTranslation.getColor is removed, and the two lang keys are dropped. Bumps NEI, GTNHLib and TX-Loader versions. - @Ranzuu
    • Added: ColorUtils with NEI quest name color resources
    • Removed: QuestTranslation.getColor, NEI quest name color lang keys
  • #228 Adds ColorUtils with ColorResource entries for neiQuestNameColor and neiQuestNameHoveredColor. Removes QuestTranslation.getColor and the two lang keys. Shadows GTNHLib 0.11.5 and turns on usesShadowedDependencies. - @Ranzuu
    • Added: ColorUtils color resources
    • Removed: QuestTranslation.getColor, NEI quest name color lang keys
  • #215 Removes GuiScreenTest, PanelVBarFill and the METER_V_0/METER_V_1 preset textures. BQLivingUpdateEvent drops its entity field and entityLiving becomes EntityPlayerMP. NetQuestAction.requestClaimForced is renamed to requestClaimForceChoice. NetChapterEdit gets a requestEdit helper used by GuiQuestLineAddRemove. Addons that use the removed or renamed members need updating. - @danyadev
    • Removed: GuiScreenTest, PanelVBarFill, METER_V_0 and METER_V_1 preset textures, BQLivingUpdateEvent entity field
    • Migration: GuiScreenTest, PanelVBarFill, BQ_CommandDebug, PresetTexture.METER_V_0 and METER_V_1 and the BQLivingUpdateEvent.entity field are removed, and BQLivingUpdateEvent.entityLiving is now an EntityPlayerMP, so addons that read it must be recompiled. NetQuestAction.requestClaimForced is now requestClaimForceChoice, forceClaimQuest is now claimQuestForceChoice, and BQ_CopyProgress.getPlayerAdvanced takes a UUID.
  • #212 NetQuestEdit gets helper methods (requestEdit, requestDelete, requestCreate, completeQuests and others) replacing hand-built NBTTagCompound payloads with hardcoded keys in the editor GUIs, toolbox tools and QuestCommandComplete. setQuestStates is renamed to completeQuests. ToolboxToolCopy now copies the quest object and changes it instead of changing NBT. createQuests no longer modifies an existing quest. Old API methods are kept for compatibility. - @danyadev
    • Added: NetQuestEdit request helper methods

Chores ​

  • #233 Reverts #228: removes ColorUtils and the shadowed GTNHLib dependency, sets usesShadowedDependencies to false, and restores QuestTranslation.getColor and the lang keys. - @Ranzuu
    • Removed: ColorUtils, shadowed GTNHLib dependency
  • #168 CanvasQuestSearch.queryMatches is wrapped in a try/catch that logs the failing entry. .gitignore gains .java-version. - @glektarssza
    • Added: error logging in quest search
