EggWars 6.3.0

Version 6.3.0 fixes some critical bugs and updates the system behind menus and the villager shop as well. The arena rewritte is still in plans, but there are no changes yet.

It's very important to update trades.json (you can delete the file and let the plugin replace it with default automatically) and your langs file, to avoid unexpected bugs.

Additions:

• Added new option game.player.opens_foreign_shops (true/false), when set to false, players won't be able to open the villagers' shops from other teams.

Changes:

• The EggWars Shop has been rewritten and has improved customization:
  • This is the definitive system for main trades, but arena specific may change later.
  • Compass item from the shop has been renamed to "Player Tracker" and now has a description.
  • Every item tier (op, nomal, and hardcore) can now have different categories.
  • In the Arena's Special Trades JSON, only one category is be defined for every item tier.
  • Every offer has its own namespaced id; and duplicates are only allowed if each one belongs to different categories.
  • Armor slot preview now has better customization.
    • Off hand slot is now also previewable, but not the main hand.
  • Auto equip configuation has been moved from hardcoded to trades.json, allowing for more customization.
  • Item name and descriptions from offers are now customizable.
    • These can be kept for the final item or not, depending on the value of keep_info_when_bought (not present and set to false by default).
• Added format_version to trades.json and kits.json.
  • They are used to check compatibility with the MC version's item format.
  • If they are not compatible with the version, an error will be logged to the console and the file will not be loaded.
• Items present in the waiting lobby and cages can now be removed by setting their slot position to -1 in config.yml.
• Inventory/Menu system has been rewritten as well.
  • The changes are far from final, but they are needed to perform the arena rewrite.
  • Upgrading through generator UI now closes the menu for parity with cubecraft.
    • This change is now customizable in new config option generator.close_ui_on_upgrade.
• Generator now stops ticking if the maximum capacity is reached.
• All these translations have been renamed so far:
  • generator.upgrade.name_normal -> generator.upgrade.name
  • generator.upgrade.lore_normal -> generator.upgrade.lore
  • generator.upgrade.name_max -> generator.upgraded_max.name
  • generator.upgrade.lore_max -> generator.upgraded_max.lore
  • menu.stats.eggs.item_name -> menu.stats.eggs_broken.item_name
  • menu.stats.eggs.item_lore -> menu.stats.eggs_broken.item_lore
  • menu.stats.played.item_name -> menu.stats.games_played.item_name
  • menu.stats.played.item_lore -> menu.stats.games_played.item_lore
  • setup.gui.teams.team.click.created -> setup.gui.teams.team.click.manage
  • setup.gui.teams.team.click.uncreated -> setup.gui.teams.team.click.create
  • ++ gameplay.villager.different_team
  • ++ shop.offer.leather_set.name
  • ++ shop.offer.chainmail_set.name
  • ++ shop.offer.iron_set.name
  • ++ shop.offer.diamond_set.name
  • ++ shop.offer.player_tracker.name
  • ++ shop.offer.player_tracker.desc
  • ++ shop.offer.ender_chest.name - unused, available for customization
  • ++ shop.offer.ender_chest.desc - unused, available for customization

Fixes:

• Fixed critical bugs on paper 1.21.1 and 1.21.4.
• Fixed free items in shop if the price token was in the off hand slot.
• Fixed villager shop not working when the name tag translation was changed in certain ways.
• Tipped arrow offers now have their duplicated counterparts properly marked and will not appear in classic shop.

EggWars 6.2.3

Version 6.2.3 fixes a few bugs due to high request. The current dev source is still very glitchy to release 6.3, so I'm only adding the fixes for now.

Additions:

• Added new config option "game.keep_abandoned_eggs" which determines if eggs should persist even if the team is empty
  • The strategy behind this option is that by setting this to "always" or "when_team_leaves", tryhards will waste some time moving to empty teams to destroy their eggs for statistics and points.

Fixes:

• Bundle items now get recolored like all other color items.
  • Also fixed being unable to re-color uncolored candle.
• Fixed bug #20: Could not find method CraftItemStack.asNMSCopy(CraftItemStack) when using leaf/purpur.
• Fixed furnaces not working on the entire server, it now only affects in-game arenas as intended.
• Fixed a bug that limited stack size for menu items (for 1.20.6 and newer, swords at vote menu don't allow amount superior to 1) via new method "meta.setMaxStackSize(99);"
• Fixed a bug when generator was placed using old sign edit, where signs didn't auto add the generator text on versions 1.20 and newer.

EggWars 6.2.2

Version 6.2.2 fixes some bugs and tweaks a few features in preparation for next update, which will be focused on arena management.

Additions:

• Support for Minecraft version 1.21.4.

Changes:

• Arena-joining signs feature is available for standing signs once again.
  • On other hand, format version of signs.yml is now tracked to prepare it for future changes.
• Arena status "Finishing" is now colored orange instead of magenta, as magenta will be used for "Full" in the future.
• Some translations have been updated; "gameplay.voting.items.result" and "gameplay.voting.health.result"
  • You need to update them manually to make the changes effective.
• Some commands that have arenas as arguments will no longer recommend arena names in addition to arena namespaced ids, but will still accept them.
• Renamed "Setting" arena status to "Configuring".

Fixes:

• Fixed pistons not working during the game, only player-placed pistons work now.
• Fixed team Purple having magenta blocks assigned instead of (obviously) purple blocks.
  • This affected leather armor as well.
• Fixed placed blocks that needed support sometimes left dropped items between games (after map ends and it restarts).
• Fixed being unable to drop items outside the inventory using click when the villager shop is open.
• "Team eliminated" message no longer appears when a player leaves during a solo game.

EggWars 6.2.1

Version 6.2.1 brings eggwars back to latest MC version and fixes various bugs and improves optimization a little. I've been (and still am) very busy this year, for next update I will try to improve arena managing.

Unlike other times, and only for servers running in versions 1.20.5 and over, instead of updating translation files you will need to update trades and kits files due to major changes on item structure.

Additions:

• Added support for version 1.20.5 through 1.21.3.

Changes:

• When buying items or upgrading generators, the items to sell get removed from the smallest stack. (Classic CubeCraft EggWars parity)

  • If you haven't converted yet, please use a version between 6.1.1 and 6.2.1 or do it manually.
• K/D (kill-death radius) now displays decimals with dots "." instead of commas ",".
• Updated trades.json and kits.json files to make items use data components instead of NBT.
  • Old files are still preserved on EggWars's jar for usage in older versions. (you will need to copy these instead)

Fixes:

• Finally fixed most of the bugs that could happen when trying to place a block against the dragon egg.
  • Due to spigot limitations, some bugs can't be totally fixed and not all added fixes are available for versions prior to 1.19.
• Fixed an ingame bug where water, lava or fire couldn't get removed or replaced, and other new flowers also couldn't be broken.
• Fixed eggwars plugin creating fake arenas for every folder in arenas folder without an arena.yml file.
• Fixed team selection menu not updating size when adding a new team (a server reload was needed).
• Fixed items desappearing when clicking them on "Basic Settings" from arena setup GUI.
• Fixed sometimes being unable to teleport to arena bound location from arena setup GUI.
• Fixed an exception caused by version incompatibility when using team ender chest.
• Fixed classic shop not working in 1.20.4.
• Firework "launch" sound now plays again when upgrading a generator.
• Fixed a bug that occurred for the entire plugin's lifetime: When removing an arena using commands, placed signs that lead to them aren't fully removed, causing exceptions when reloading server.
• Fixed 3 more minor bugs. (reload cache when generators.json didn't load yet, HashSet Team.villager not removing entity referenes from previus games, unoptimized villager name tag)

EggWars 6.0.2

Version 6.0.2 introduces a cubecraft parity addition, along with some critical bug fixes and improvements. This probably will be the last update for 6.0, with the next update going into 6.1 as planned. (It will be a bigger update than this one)

This update requires to update language/translation files, for the end-of-game statistics (specifically).

Additions

• Added "APPS" (short of "Awesome Produce Sharing System") from CubeCraft.
• • I liked that joke from rubik cube man so now it's cannon. (jk)
• • It consists of rotating each player's turn to pick up items produced by an item generator (when there's more than one player) when standing next to it, so everyone can gather a fair amount of items from the same generator.

Changes

• Arenas will now be automatically set to Edit Mode when loading from incomplete config.
• End Of Game Statistics improvements:
• • Now also have number of Eggs Broken.
• • Format is now customizable through translations.
• • Tweaked statistic translations.
• Slightly changed generators; they will now generate items at the center of the block first, and then in split a second they will spread.
• Reward points have been adjusted to match CubeCraft. This will be only applied to new configuration files though.
• • A normal kill now rewards 1 point, a final kill 3 points, when breaking an egg 6 points. Points on win stay the same.

Fixes

• Fixed a bug where you could break wooden blocks from the map after being stripped with an axe, with the help of MPK1.
• Fixed NullPointerException when saving arenas with no bounds set. This caused the whole arena to not save properly.
• When exiting Edit Mode, the arena world now performs an instant FULL world save instead of an "auto-save" one. (As initially intended)
• • This may impact performance a little but has fixed some level corruption issues that happened in my setup.
• Added missing translations for kit item at the player menu.

New Contributors

• @MPK1 made their first contribution in #2
