TicketManager has reached V9! Firstly, thank you very much everyone who has supported my product to this point. It's something I take great pride in and will continue to work on in the future. With that said, here is the update.

NOTE: If you read nothing else, please scroll to the "Important Information" and give it a look. This update does have breaking changes.

Version 9: Expanded Platform Update

The original goal for this major update was to expand the number of platforms supported. IE: Sponge support and the ability to run a single TM:SE instance on Velocity. However, this has been pushed to a future 9.X release due to some pressing matters that need a hotfix. I already had a new feature written and tested, so it made sense to release now with the new feature instead of wait.

New Feature: Proxy Discord Bot

For networks using TM in proxy mode, the only way to use the discord bot was to create a bot for each server. This has been rectified in V9. Now users can enable a single Discord bot on the proxy. The individual servers can forward the bot notifications to the proxy, thus only needing one bot.
To enable this, enable the discord bot on the proxy using the new config file, then, on the standalone editions, (a) enable discord, and (b) enable discord passthrough to proxy.

Important Information

This update begins a process of consolidating certain internals. As part of this effort, certain things are being standardized. Luckily, permission node standardization already occurred several major revisions go. By contrast, proxy channels did not yet exist during this effort and thus escaped standardization. This update resolves this discrepancy, and thus breaks compatibility with previous PBE versions. The following summarizes the changes:

  • TM:SE and TM:PBE experienced a proxy channel standardization which breaks compatibility.
  • TM:SE 9.0.0 must use TM:PBE 2.0
  • TM:PBE only works with TM:SE 9.0.0

Please make sure to update your PBE if you intend on updating the PBE.
