Huge thanks to @MetallicGoat ! He has been a non-trivial contributor to this update, and is responsible for i.a. the new scoreboard system, the many new features and tons of QoL improvements (including bug fixes).
This update is massive. A lot of time has been invested into it, we'd greatly appreciate a donation
New features:
Added support:
- New scoreboard system:
- Fixed issues with flicker when "force updating" the scoreboard
- Added per-condition scoreboards
- Added scoreboards for end-lobby and spectator (new scoreboard-layouts folder)
- Full hex support
- Increased character limit (your Spigot/Minecraft version must support them)
- Added grouping for arenas collections in arenas GUI:
- New config: group-by-displayname
- New placeholder: {grouped-arenas}
- Display spawners feature
- Spawners within the same position now get aggregated
- This means that it displays the amount of spawners that are on that position and also stacks different types on a different y-level
Added configs:
- AdvancedSlimeWorldManager 1.19+ (aka AdvancedSlimePaper)
New PlaceholderAPI placeholders:
- explosion-entities-blacklist (blacklist entities that can be damaged by explosive)
- group-by-displayname (arenas GUI)
- Added ability to configure titles/lore in achievements menu
- gui-achievements-text-unearned
- gui-achievements-text-earned
- New configs for guard dogs
- guarddog-damage-multiplier
- guarddog-alive-duration
- guarddog-display-name
Performance improvements:
- %mbedwars_playerarena-countdown%
- Displays the remaining time (hh:ss format) until either the match ends (if the arena is running), or the remaing time (hh:ss format) until the match begins (during lobby state)
- %mbedwars_playerarena-running-time%
- Displays the time (hh:ss format) the match is already running
Improvements:
- Added player indices for local storage
- Greatly reduces memory usage
- Automatically handles corruption
- Allows you to fetch stats from players who never joined the server. E.g. when you transfer the stats to another server, where no players have been logged yet (API)
- Opens up new potential, e.g. by having a new API that allows you to fetch the leaderboard of any stat set
- Greatly reduced memory usage of the "regeneration-region-efficient-beta" config
- Slightly improved performance by placing bed blocks async (if supported; 1.15+ paper)
- Improved performance by using more optimized data types throughout the code
API:
- Added Magic Milk to HyPixel template
- "/bw spawn joinarenasign" now supports remote arenas (from ProxySync addon)
- Added new arena condition variables: server_playing_arenas_count and cloned_arena_name
- The configuration page of voting arenas now displays the real name of the arenas within the pool instead of their display name
- It is now possible to interact with entities in end lobby if the config "endlobby-tptolobby" is disabled (Fixes conflict with Yeehaw victory dance from the Cosmetics&Coins addon)
- Reduced size of the jar by not included unused classes from third-party libraries
- HyPixelV2 shop layout: Pages row is no longer being centered
- HyPixelV2 shop layout: Green hint in page/item separator now properly adapts itself to page force-slot
- Achievements GUI now also displays the earn date of each achievement
- GeyserMC hotfix (caused by it): Permanent zoom after respawning as a spectator
- It is now possible to join an arena while spectating. Previously it'd display a "You're already inside an arena!" message
