MAJOR TRANSLATIONS UPDATE

The Hive has a large number of non-English players - especially in our
ever-growing Asia region. Over the last few months, we've been working on making
it easier to manage our translations, to ensure players worldwide have the best
possible experience.

As of today's update, we have near 100% translation coverage across all games
and social features in:

 * French
 * German
 * Italian
 * Japanese
 * Brazilian Portuguese
 * Russian
 * Spanish (Spain and Latin America)

We'll continue improving our translations, as well as adding languages based on
geographic player statistics. In the future, we plan to make it easier for
community members to report wrong translations as well as suggest potential
improvements.

WEEKEND MAINTENANCE BREAKDOWN

Last weekend, we were informed about an exploit affecting us and some other
(featured and non-featured) servers, which allowed users to log in with an
arbitrary identity. As this posed a possible security risk, we went into
maintenance mode and resolved this issue ASAP.

As of this announcement, we believe the issue has been resolved. We have reached
out to other affected servers in the community, as well as affected software
maintainers, to aid them in resolving this issue.

We have no evidence that this exploit was used maliciously. The Hive stores no
personal data, so there is no risk to players in any form. 

As there was no impact to player accounts, we are under no obligation to post
this notice, however we're sharing this to promote transparency and to assist
affected networks.

We have rewarded the people that informed us about this exploit with a generous
bug bounty.

This incident was limited to server logins, due to the way Minecraft client
issues and validates logins, and not any backend service or web services such as
Discord or our forums.

FAQ:

Is my account at risk? Should I change my password?

No. This incident has no relation to passwords, and as it’s been resolved, there
is no risks for any accounts. Absolutely NO action is required by any user at
this time.

Was my account affected?

From our current evidence, this affected less than 10 accounts, mainly vanity
and known influencer accounts. There was no substantial abuse of the affected
accounts. No player account was banned, kicked, or modified because of this
incident.

Did this affect all servers?

This affected a small number of featured servers as well as several non-featured
servers, as well as popular Bedrock to Java translation servers. Most affected
servers have since resolved this issue.

Was the Hive “hacked”?

No. The scope of this incident was purely related to in-game access, and the
number of privileges that in-game accounts have is incredibly limited as well as
audited. No personal, account, or other privileged data was accessed or
modified.

HUB UPDATE

It's hub update time!

This hub polishing update converts most of our NPCs and other models to resource
pack NPCs; improving performance, reducing Steve & Pink glitch as well as
allowing us to add animations! Stay tuned for similar updates coming to all of
our games in the future.

Furthermore, this update adds our first overhaul of menus: we're introducing our
brand new Game Selector menu. Not only is it prettier, it also explains the game
and adds easy access to Custom Servers! You'll see more updates like this in the
future, as well as a fully overhauled Social Menu.

All Game NPCs have overhauled holograms, exciting stances and a clarified
player-counter. Make sure to also check out the brand new particles, and the
very cool Pirate's Fortune in-hub advert!

Head over to the Hub to check out these (and more!) changes. Enjoy your stay on
The Hive!

CUSTOM SERVERS OVERHAUL & UPDATE

Custom Servers are loved by many of our dedicated players, but have historically
been a bit tricky to use and configure. With this full overhaul and update we're
making them better and easier!

To get started with Custom Servers, run the following command in-game: /cs

Full overhaul of all menus to make settings easier to find and quicker to
change:

 * One top-level modal now serves as the starting point for all customization as
   well as access- and other features
 * Related settings are now shown in one modal instead of multiple, making it
   easier to configure 'deeper' settings
 * Improved wording and general look and feel to make modals and settings more
   clear

Presets:

 * Presets (featured, custom and recent) are now functional
 * Custom presets can be shared with other players using a preset code
 * Recent presets allow you to go back to a recent game's settings
 * Featured Presets per game for 'recommended' playlists, including community
   favorites

Improvements and fixes:

 * Fixed Code Only Mode + the code now shows on screen permanently during lobby
 * Fixed various issues relating to Set Roles
 * Added Set World Time
 * Improved permission system
 * Games now only start when the owner, or a player with the right permission,
   manually starts the game. The start-game countdown is fully removed in Custom
   Servers.





GAME-SPECIFIC CHANGES:

Treasure Wars:

 * Added settings to enable/disable the purchasing of certain items from the
   item shop
 * Fixed an issue where summoners would drop empty items when the summoner
   amount setting was set to 0, also changed the summoner name to show it does
   not drop items
 * Non-CS: Fixed an issue where spectators wouldn't get a UI in Treasure Wars
   Mega

SkyWars:

 * Added the ability to change the health on kill setting to the amount of the
   max health setting
 * Fixed a bug where turning off chest filling would stop you from being able to
   open them at all

Survival Games:

 * Added the ability to set roles and players as spectators
 * Added a setting to control supply crate spawn rate 
 * Added a setting to enable/disable supply crates
 * Non-CS: Fixed an issue where the fire boomboxes would ignite the thrower but
   not damage them
 * Non-CS: Stopped standard boomboxes from giving knockback to the player that
   threw it
 * Non-CS: Fixed a bug where a player could spam dozens of Boomboxes 

Just Build:

 * Added the ability to create your own theme in the theme settings
 * Added the ability for players to be spectators





AND ONE MORE THING...

We know that getting to the Custom Server menu is command-only at the moment,
preventing our more casual players from discovering this feature. Stay tuned for
improvements to our Hub that resolve this as well as future user experience
improvements!
