The release was delayed, and you'll understand why now. First,
lxr comletely reworked the release system. For you, this looks like a slightly different news layout, highlighting world records and statistics. For me, it's a new release panel with improved functionality. And finally, for all of us, it's a fix for world record detection, placement in releases with checkpoints, and, most importantly, a stable logging process, so there shouldn't be any more delays due to bugs. This is the first batch of updates, addressing the most critical functionality.
Meanwhile, I was dealing with the long-standing issue of using the jump;wait script. It's banned along with all sorts of cheats, but its automatic detection has become quite a challenge for me. A year ago, I came up with a new method and set it up to run in the background with logging, and now I've finally accumulated enough data to enable the detection. This wasn't a coincidence cause in this release
joym dared to use it while recording a demo. What's more, he also recorded demos with 100aa, trying to hide that fact. So, he's getting banned not only from servers, but from the entire community. But he's not the only lucky one – from the logs accumulated over the year, I've identified those who are guaranteed to lose all records and earn their permanent:

There are also those who haven't had much time to use the script, but I think they get the message – anyone who decides to use it will join this list.
I won't make any further announcements for now, but I'll just say that if you're missing something in the LAN pack (or perhaps it's already there and you're just not aware of it), and especially if you're already using any additional plugins, let me know, and I'll see what I can do. Enjoy the game!
