What’s better than one big update, but two big updates?
5.13 and 5.14 are now live on all nodes, let’s jump into the changes.

5.13 - The “framework” one,

5.13 is very exciting for us, but a bit boring for you guys. It’s a framework update allowing us to make changes to the panel, like adding UI config editors, without needing full panel updates. It lets our games team work on adding better tools. We’ll talk more about this a bit later when you can start to see the changes. Now on to the more exciting update.

5.14 - The fun stuff,

New Mod & Plugin Installer

Fresh UI, better sorting, category filters, and download progress bars. Based on your feedback, it’s now easier to find what you need and grab the correct version. The plugin catalogue is also much bigger.

World Downloader

Brand new to the Kinetic Panel: browse hundreds of pre-built worlds. Skyblock, adventure maps, minigames, fancy survival, pick it, download it, play it.

Customise Your Sidebar

We’ve added a lot lately, and the sidebar was getting busy. Now you can reorder items, make your own dropdowns, and put the features you care about front and centre. New features and updates will also be tagged with a shiny “New” badge so you can keep up with changes at a glance.

Bug fixes

A bunch shipped here, most notably the render issues with the new Game Rule Manager are resolved. More big updates are on the way, As always let us know any feedback on the changes.
