  • Documentation of conditional statements can be found in the "add" command description in the command ref. on our wiki
  • Added <signLoc> variable which will be replaced with the sign's location in the format world,x,y,z (useful for /svsr commands on a SVS)

  • Added 5 new replacement parameters for /svs add commands (<loopCount> <loopsLeft> <usesLeft> <usesLimit> <usesTally>)
