# Release v1.6
## New features
### Quality of life
- Added the amount of items laying around within a certain range of an item ping into the ping message
- Fixed typos on the modrinth and GitHub page
# Release v1.5
## New features
### Quality of life
- Made pinging living entities apply glowing to them **directly** instead of creating a normal ping (suggested by **wallysaurus** on discord)
# Release v1.4
## New features
### Quality of life
- Made pings in shorter range to the player more precise. This way you can ping through slabs or any other block that has a smaller than one block hitbox *(but only up to a certain distance for performance reasons)*
### Allowed pings below water and lava
- When outside of a liquid you may ping it, when inside of one (for example in the ocean) you can ping right through it
# Release v1.3
## New Features
- Added new property to allow server admins to set a cooldown for pings (this should prevent ping spamming)
## Bug Fixes
- It's no longer possible to ping entities through walls
# Release v1.2
## Performance improvements
- Limited max ping range on the horizontal axis to 32 chunks
- Limited max ping range on the vertical axis to build height
- Switched to from Minecrafts raycast system to using a custom raycast algorithm for finding ping positions
### Issues and future planning
So far I haven't found any issues please post any bugs or errors you find as well as feature requests you might have. I'm happy to implement more settings and tweaks in the future. The chat messages will likely be reworked to only be visible to players nearby.
# Release v1.1
## Added
- ping range setting
- documentation on how to change settings and the config file can be found in the mods description or the Github page
- troubleshooting on the description and Github page
