Release 1.9.9.6 largely exists as an excuse to re-build the repository, but also includes some nice bugfixes and QoL improvements:

  • Fixed binding issues if you click on an AMP session in the session list
  • Fixed bad timestamps in Audit log.
  • Extra logging for startup failures in MC.
  • Sleep mode can now only be started from stopped or ready states.
  • Add 'Repair Datastore' (ampinstmgr repair) to automatically repair damaged amp datastores.
  • AIM core automatically keeps a backup of Instances.json when overwriting it.
  • Implement Themes! There's a new "Themes" directory in WebRoot. Dropping .css files will make them appear in the themes list and are applied globally.
  • 2FA setup no longer relies on Google Charts to generate QR codes (uses a data-url instead, significantly more secure).
  • 2FA setup now shows a manual setup code for use with password managers when scanning a QR code would be impractical.
  • Changes to search box to try and stop Chrome from treating it like a username field.

Release 1.9.9.4 is mostly a bugfix and a refinement release that improves some of the installation process on Windows, along with improvements to the FTP support and some changes to service handling on Windows for Factorio and srcds.

AMPCore

  • Tollerate same IP address showing up multiple times in IP selection sources.
  • Selection sources now accomodate IEnumerable, List in addition to dictionaries.
  • Added a 'Restart Instance' button on Linux (requires latest ampinstmgr package and systemd unit!)

GetAMP

  • Now tollerates "UTF-8" locale names as well as utf8 and has some flair for the AMP user on new installations.

  • Fixed 'Start Instance' not working on newly created instances.
  • [GUI] 'Create as service' and 'start on boot' selected by default for ADS installations. Now prevents multiple instance being created, shows a more helpful messasge when you try and create subsequent instances.

Module/Plugin Changes

  • [ADS] No longer keeps running GetUpdates if websockets are enabled when connected to ADS instances.
  • [ARK] Filter out unnecessary messages from the console (previously disabled).
  • [Factorio] No longer users AMPCA on Windows.

  • [LocalFileBackup] Added an item to backup manifests to show whether or not a backup was created automatically.
  • [Minecraft] Paper updater no longer falls over if no version is selected, defaults to latest.
  • [Minecraft] Fixed plugins not showing as deleted once removed (the files were deleted, but the manifest entry wasn't)
  • [srcds] No longer uses AMPCA on Windows.
