What changed, and when.

1.0.0 2026-09-21 Current version

• BASTION — ALL YOUR SERVER TOOLS IN ONE WINDOW
• Bastion is the desktop application that installs, configures and keeps up to date the products of the range: the Guardian Discord bots and the server plugins.
• Products are sorted by game, then by kind: Discord bots on one side, server plugins on the other. You always know what a product is and which game it serves.

1.0.0 2026-09-21 Current version

• GUARDIAN ARK — YOUR ARK SERVER, INSIDE YOUR DISCORD
• Guardian ARK is a Discord bot for ARK: Survival Ascended servers. It installs from Bastion, runs on your own computer, and follows several servers of the same cluster at once.
• The server state in an always-current message, arrivals and departures, leaderboards, each player's card, the battle pass and its rewards, and the link between a Discord account and an…

1.0.0 2026-09-21 Current version

• GUARDIAN PALWORLD — YOUR PALWORLD SERVER, INSIDE YOUR DISCORD
• Guardian Palworld is a Discord bot for Palworld servers. It installs from Bastion, runs on your own computer, and never modifies your world: it reads, it does not write.
• The server state in an always-current message, the number of players online under the bot's name, arrivals and departures, leaderboards with the columns you choose, each player's card, the…

1.0.0 2026-09-21 Current version

• GUARDIAN WARDOGS — YOUR WARDOGS SERVERS, INSIDE YOUR DISCORD
• Guardian WARDOGS is a Discord bot for WARDOGS community servers. It installs for free from Bastion and runs on your computer.
• Your server's status in a message that stays up to date (map, mode, weather, players, the three team scores, next map, join ID), admin alerts when the server goes down, freezes or restarts,…

1.0.0 2026-09-21 Current version

• BASTION ORP — YOUR BASES PROTECTED WHILE YOU ARE AWAY
• Bastion ORP is a plugin for PvP Palworld servers. When a guild is entirely offline, its bases take no damage — or reduced damage, as you prefer.
• It watches who is connected, guild by guild, and applies your rule as soon as the last member of a guild leaves the server.

1.14.0 2026-08-29 Current version

• The Plugins page used to describe your files, and therefore what should happen.
• Each plugin reports its last start. Loaded, turned off in its own file, invalid or unreadable info file, engine too old, entry point not found, crashed during its own start-up, or missing…
• The case that made the page lie is fixed. A plugin that looked perfect on disk but collapsed while initialising was still shown as healthy. Not any more.

1.13.1 2026-08-29

• A fix for a confusing regression reported right after 1.13.0.
• Your server window was gone. With "Start this server with PalApi" ticked, no console window opened any more.
• Why it happened. The manager has always asked the program it starts not to open a window.

1.13.0 2026-08-28

• The Plugins page no longer stops at "is the PalApi engine installed?".
• Every installed plugin is listed. Name, version, folder, and what it requires.
• No empty promises. As long as "Start this server with PalApi" is unticked, or the engine is not installed, no line claims a plugin will load.

1.12.0 2026-08-28

• Server plugins: install the PalApi engine and let your server actually load them.
• New "Plugins" section for each server. It installs, updates, repairs or removes the PalApi plugin engine in one click, the same way the other server add-ons are handled.
• A checkbox: "Start this server with PalApi". Without it, plugins sit on the disk and never start — this is the trap that silently affected servers with plugins installed.

1.11.3 2026-08-28

• No more error windows stacking up and freezing the app.
• The app no longer locks up behind a pile of error windows. An "An unexpected error occurred" message could come back over and over, and eventually made the app unusable: every error opened…
• The cause of those errors is gone. The watcher for timed events was querying the database every 30 seconds even when no event was running — that is, permanently.

1.11.2 2026-07-25

• Backups no longer get in the server's way, and the Optimisation page finally tells the truth about the settings.
• No more servers stuck during a backup. This was the cause of the outages where players got kicked and could not reconnect while the server still looked alive: while the app was reading a…
• The app waits for a save in progress to finish. If the game is saving when a backup starts, the app waits a short moment: the copy it takes is consistent, instead of catching a half-written…

1.11.1 2026-07-14

• Fix: scheduled restarts no longer cancel themselves.
• No more restart loops that never restart. A scheduled restart could cancel itself right before acting, leaving the server running without ever restarting.
• More patient world save before shutdown. The world-save wait time goes from 5 to 20 seconds — helpful for well-populated servers whose save takes longer.
