Context

On the 28th of August the Hypixel team released an update to Bedwars that hides all player name in the pre-game lobby.
This means that you are no longer able to see who you will be playing against to potentially dodge or snipe.
Once the game starts, however, usernames are revealed, and you can use /who to get a list of all players in the game.

Updates

The overlay has been updated to work much better with this new update.

Notable Changes

  • Obfuscated names in the queue are not show in the overlay (afSDiqls has joined)
  • You can type /who once the game starts without having to manually close the overlay after
  • Players who chat in the pre-game lobby are automatically added to the overlay.

Other Changes

  • Always show your party in the pre-game lobby. The overlay cannot know that they are there, but shows them so you can see their stats.
  • Added a setting to control how fast the overlay automatically hides after the game starts. This defaults to 8 seconds whereas it was 5 seconds before this update. This is to allow more time to type /who and study the overlay when the game has started. Holding down tab still shows the overlay.

Bugfixes

  • Fixed a bug where the overlay could attach to the wrong minecraft version after switching between versions
