They were.\n\n- **The status bar can be switched off.** The row at the bottom of the chat window (channel, privacy state, message counts, tells, clock, version) had no switch. Settings → Window → Window style has \"Show status bar\" now. Off, the chat body takes the space; on for everyone until you turn it off, so nothing changes by itself. One thing to know: the camera and the lock live in that row, so with the bar hidden, screenshot mode and the privacy filter give no visible sign.\n- **Suggested by Ashy ^.^, and it says so.** The toggle carries a \"Suggested by\" line under it. Whoever proposes a feature should see their name where the feature lives, not in a changelog they will never open. The line is translated into all 25 languages and is a generic key, ready for the next suggestion.\n\n---\n\n**v2.0.5 — Focus, and a way out (2026-08-23)**\n\nTwo tester reports, both about the same corner: what a tell does to what you were doing, and what you can do about a tab once it exists.\n\n- **A tell arriving while you were typing took the keyboard.** The tab switched under you, and in this game that means the next thing you type walks your character around. It could also send your sentence to the wrong person: what you have typed belongs to the window, while the recipient is read off whichever tab is active when you press Enter — so a line meant for one person could leave addressed to whoever had just written. Nothing is revealed now while you are mid-sentence, in any mode. The tab still appears with its unread mark and waits for you.\n- **A tell tab could not be closed.** The entry was lost in the 2.0.0 window rebuild: it lived in the old menu, and the rebuilt one restored renaming, sounds, pop-outs and pinning but not this. Tell tabs are kept out of the settings editor on purpose, with a note pointing at the context menu — which could not close them either. Right-click any tab to close it. A pinned tell tab asks you to unpin it first, so one misclick cannot end a conversation you meant to keep.\n- **Two settings decided where a tell opens, and the older one always won.** \"Open new /tell tabs as a pop-out\" fired when the tab was created, a tick before the mode below it was ever asked — which is why that mode looked like it did nothing. They are one setting now and your existing choice carries over. \"Off\" went with them: it never stopped tell tabs from being created, that is the switch further up, it only stopped the jump to them, which is what the switch below it does.\n- **Closing a tab could break a pop-out you were using.** Re-anchoring always jumped to the first tab in the list, even when that tab was open in its own window, and stripped its tell binding on the way there.\n- **Smaller things.** \"Pop Out\" in the context menu was English on every client, as were the tell-open modes. The pinned-tab limit still pointed at a feature removed in May. Spanish had a word that does not exist, Greek had an untranslated one, Portuguese contradicted its own button. Segmented settings rows cut long labels in half. The last compiler warning in the project is gone.\n\n---\n\n**v2.0.4 — Housekeeping (2026-08-20)**\n\nNothing changes in how the plugin behaves. Two pieces of tidying that were overdue.\n\n- **The installer description was long, and one line of it was wrong.** It ran to 908 characters and opened by naming a category instead of saying what the plugin does. It also claimed 24 interface languages when there are 25, and the two manifests carried different one-line summaries, so the store listing and the plugin details showed different sentences.\n- **30 translation keys for the webinterface are gone.** That feature, its HTTP routes and its frontend left the code in May; the strings stayed behind in all 25 languages, along with a generated property for each. Every key was checked against the whole repository before anything was removed.\n\n---\n\n**v2.0.3 — Pop-out context menu, screenshot mode (2026-08-20)**\n\n- **The context menu never opened in a pop-out window.** Right-clicking a name or an item there did nothing at all. Every chat surface shares one popup state, and whichever window drew first cleared the menu it had not opened before the pop-out got its turn. The menu now stays with the window the click came from.\n- **Screenshot mode could not be turned off.** It is a saved setting, but neither of its two toggles wrote the change to the config file, so switching it off never survived a reload and the mode came back on at every plugin load. Both toggles save now. If it is stuck on for you, one click off is enough.\n- **Text the game colours itself could render invisible.** Some of those colours arrive without an alpha byte, and the byte order swap then left them fully transparent.\n", "AcceptsFeedback": true, "DownloadLinkInstall": "https://gitea.hellion-forge.cloud/JonKazama-Hellion/HellionChat/releases/download/v2.0.6/latest.zip", "DownloadLinkUpdate": "https://gitea.hellion-forge.cloud/JonKazama-Hellion/HellionChat/releases/download/v2.0.6/latest.zip", "DownloadLinkTesting": "https://gitea.hellion-forge.cloud/JonKazama-Hellion/HellionChat/releases/download/v2.0.6/latest.zip", "TestingAssemblyVersion": "2.0.6.0", "IconUrl": "https://gitea.hellion-forge.cloud/JonKazama-Hellion/HellionChat/raw/branch/main/HellionChat/images/icon.png", "ImageUrls": [ "https://gitea.hellion-forge.cloud/JonKazama-Hellion/HellionChat/raw/branch/main/HellionChat/images/chatWindow.png", "https://gitea.hellion-forge.cloud/JonKazama-Hellion/HellionChat/raw/branch/main/HellionChat/images/settingsOverview.png", "https://gitea.hellion-forge.cloud/JonKazama-Hellion/HellionChat/raw/branch/main/HellionChat/images/firstRunWizard.png" ], "DownloadCount": 0, "IsHide": false, "IsTestingExclusive": false, "CategoryTags": [ "social" ] } ]
