Recently changed:

Zedwork LVS has been updated to Minecraft 1.11.2

I don't record all of the changes I make on LVS, because they're usually little changes I make frequently I often forget.

I think today's change would be good to announce to reassure you all

Warps

• It is now harder to trap players in lava when warping. Will still take damage, but shouldn't die from the ordeal.

Love the recent update, given the "excitement" as of late. Thank you for protecting us.
