TShock 4.4.0 Pre-release 9 for Terraria 1.4.0.4

• Fixed pet licenses. (@Olink)
• Added initial support for Journey mode in SSC worlds. (@Olink)
• Made TShock database MySQL 8 compatible by escaping column names in our IQueryBuilder code. (Name Groups is a reserved element in this version, which is used in our Region table.) (@Patrikkk)
• Reintroduced -worldselectpath per feedback from @fjfnaranjo. This command line argument should be used to specify the place where the interactive server startup will look for worlds to show on the world select screen. The original version of this argument, -worldpath, was removed because several game service providers have broken configurations that stop the server from running with an unhelpful error. This specific configuration was -world and -worldpath. In the new world, you can do the following:
  • -worldselectpath should be used if you want to customize the server interactive boot world list (so that you can select from a number of worlds in non-standard locations).
  • -world will behave as an absolute path to the world to load. This is the most common thing you want if you're starting the server and have a specific world in mind.
  • -worldselectpath and -worldname should work together enabling you to select from a world from the list that you specify. This is not a world file name, but a world name as described by Terraria.
  • -worldselectpath is identical to the old -worldpath. If you specify -worldselectpath and -world without specifying an absolute path the server will crash for sure.
  • Thank you again to @fjfnaranjo for supplying a detailed feature request explaining precisely why this option should be available. Without this, we would have had no context as to why this feature was useful or important. Thank you, @fjfnaranjo!
  • This change was implemented by (@QuiCM, @hakusaro).
• Updated Bouncer to include Sparkle Slime debuff that can be applied to town NPCs. (@moisterrific)
• Updated /spawnboss command to include Empress of Light and Queen Slime. (@moisterrific)
• Added journey mode permissions to owner group by default. (@moisterrific)
• Fixed kick on hardcore death / kick on mediumcore death / ban on either from taking action against journey mode players. (@hakusaro)
• Attempted to fix the problem with the magic mirror spawn problems. You should be able to remove your spawn point in SSC by right clicking on a bed now. (@hakusaro, @AxeelAnder)
• Added HandleFoodPlatterTryPlacing event, which is called whenever a player places a food in a plate. Add antihack to bouncer, to prevent removing food from plates if the region is protected; To prevent placement if they are not in range; To prevent placement if the item is not placed from player hand. (@Patrikkk)
• Fixed an offset error in NetTile that impacted SendTileSquare. It was being read as a byte and not a ushort. (@QuiCM)
• Fixed coins not dropping after being picked up by npcs. The ExtraValue packet was not being read correctly. (@Olink)
• Removed packet monitoring from debug logs. To achieve the same results, install @QuiCM's packet monitor plugin (it does better things). (@hakusaro)
• Updated packet monitoring in send tile square handler for Bouncer debugging. (@hakusaro)
• Added /sync, activated with tshock.synclocalarea. This is a default guest permission. When the command is issued, the server will resync area around the player in the event of a desync issue. (@hakusaro)
  • If your doors disappear, this command will allow a player to resync without having to disconnect from the server.
  • The default group that gets this permission is Guest for the time being.
  • To add this command to your guest group, give them tshock.synclocalarea, with /group addperm guest tshock.synclocalarea.
  • This command may be removed at any time in the future (and will likely be removed when send tile square handling is fixed).
• Fixed smart door automatic door desync and deletion issue. (@hakusaro)

Please remove tshock.ignore.sendtilesquare from people's permission buckets to turn back on send tile square protection and only change it if doors don't work still. Please remember that keeping TShock running on a server that is open to the public is currently not advised due to several known anticheat issues.
