Hello everyone,
I hope you're all doing well. I'd like to revisit the topic of allowing Lunar Client on the server. I know this has been suggested before and declined, primarily because it's on the dev team's to-do list, although with a low priority due to other pressing tasks.
However, there's a new development that I believe warrants reconsideration. As you might be aware, one of the significant concerns about Lunar Client was the inability to disable certain features easily, unlike Labymod, which most of the player base currently uses. This limitation made it challenging for the devs to control the gameplay experience and maintain server balance.
Recently, Lunar Client introduced a new API called Apollo. According to their announcement, "Apollo is a complete revamp of Lunar Client's legacy API and brings a host of new features. It offers server owners the ability to interact with and utilize unique features for Lunar Client users. With Apollo, it becomes possible to disable specific mods and features to ensure they align with the server's rules and gameplay style."
I believe that Apollo could address the previous concerns about Lunar Client. While I’m not a developer and cannot speak to the exact implementation details, I think this new API significantly lowers the barrier to integrating Lunar Client safely and effectively.
Given these new capabilities, I kindly request the dev team to take a closer look at Apollo and reconsider allowing Lunar Client on the server. I understand that the dev team is busy, but perhaps this API could streamline some of the process, making it more feasible to prioritize this request.
Thank you for considering my suggestion.
