• Disabled MiniGameStartingCommands for minecraft 1.19 clients
  • Beginning with minecraft 1.19 the minecraft server verifies if a command was actually was send by a client. Due to that it is not anymore possible to spoof commands using bungeecord
  • This feature still exists in extended version of Party and Friends for 1.19 clients, as instead of the bungeecord simulating the command which is not possible anymore with 1.19 clients, the spigot server simulates the execution.
