  • This allows the usage of blacklisted commands only in the player's town and the wilderness (essentially blocking commands from being ran by tourists/visitors.)
  • Players with the towny.globally_welcome permission node are not going to be limited by this list.
  • Commands have to be on town_command_blacklisting.town_blacklisted_commands, else this is not going to be checked.
• Include tb_prefix in column drop check, courtesy of Parsonswy with PR Include tb_prefix in column drop check (Closes #4935) #4952 (First-Time Contributor!)
  • For the mysql servers that could never get the old columns dropped, this will fix that, and prevent the massive error logs that resulted from it.
  • Closes [Some?] Database Migrations Failing to run [0.96.1.0 -> 0.97.0.0] #4935.
• Bump language files to 0.106.
