Problem Statement

Since the release of v2.1.97, the /buddy command has been removed. We would love to see this feature restored in a future update!

While it might be a small addition, it added a lot of personality and "cuteness" to the user experience that many of us appreciated.

Please bring back our favorite companion! :)

Proposed Solution

Re-implement the /buddy functionality as it existed prior to v2.1.97.

TL;DR

The most likely fix is to re-implement the /buddy command as it existed prior to version 2.1.97.

Guidance

  • Review the code changes made in version 2.1.97 to identify what was removed or modified that caused the /buddy command to be unavailable.
  • Check the version history to see if there are any clues about why the /buddy command was removed and if there are any plans to restore it.
  • Consider reaching out to the development team to inquire about the possibility of restoring the /buddy command in a future update.
  • If the /buddy command is critical for your work, you may want to explore alternative solutions or workarounds, such as creating a custom script or plugin to mimic the functionality.

Notes

The issue lacks technical details about the implementation of the /buddy command, making it difficult to provide a more specific solution.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Since the development team may not prioritize restoring the /buddy command, it may be necessary to explore alternative solutions or workarounds to achieve the desired functionality.
