AdvancementTracker

This isn't a patch — it's a brand new plugin. Every line of code has been rewritten from scratch on the modern Paper API (26.1.2+), with a completely new GUI and a set of features the old version never had. All-new GUI · Category tabs (Story, Nether, The End, Adventure, Husbandry — datapack tabs appear automatically) with the real advancement icons, laid out in tree order. · Completed advancements glow gold; the selected tab glints; long descriptions wrap cleanly instead of stretching the tooltip. · Filter button (all / incomplete / completed), smooth pagination, and an at-a-glance stats head with your overall % and task / goal / challenge tallies. New features · View anyone — /advancements <player> now works even while they're offline. · Server-wide rarity — every advancement shows how many players on your server have earned it, e.g. 3/12 players (25%). · Real progress bars — multi-part advancements like Adventuring Time show a live bar and count. Requirement-aware, so "kill any one of 30 mobs" never renders as a misleading 1/30. · Completion dates, hidden advancements masked as ??? until earned, and a built-in update checker. Faster and lighter · All file reading (offline players, rarity scanning) runs off the main thread — zero TPS impact. · The advancement tree is indexed once at startup, not rebuilt per click; menus re-render in place with no reopen flicker. · No database, no dependencies, and recipe clutter is filtered out at the source. Upgrading: delete your old plugins/AdvancementTracker folder (the config is brand new), drop the jar in, restart. Requires Paper 26.1.2 or newer.

Version 8.11.25.2 is now available with highly requested features! IMPORTANT: Delete your old config.yml and let the plugin generate a new one. The config has been updated with new settings for the update checker. Individual Advancement Criteria Tracking The most requested feature is finally here. You can now see exactly which parts of multi-step advancements you've completed. Examples: · A Complete Catalogue - See which cat variants you've tamed · Adventuring Time - See which biomes you've visited · A Balanced Diet - See which foods you've eaten · Two by Two - See which animals you've bred · Monsters Hunted - See which mobs you've killed · Smithing with Style - See which armor trims you've crafted How it works: · Click any advancement book in the GUI · Completed criteria show with green checkmarks · Remaining criteria show with red circles · Perfect for tracking your progress on complex advancements Category-Specific Progress When you complete an advancement, you now see progress for that specific category instead of overall progress. Example: · Complete "Stone Age" advancement · Shows: "Story progress: 1/16 (6.3%)" · Previously showed: "Progress: 1/139 (0.7%)" This gives you more useful information about which categories you're progressing in. Hover for Details Hover over the progress message in chat to see: · The advancement name · The advancement description Update Checker The plugin now automatically checks for updates on startup. · Notifies console when updates are available · Notifies ops/admins when they join (if outdated) · Shows development build info for unreleased versions · Can be disabled in config if desired Better Criterion Name Formatting Internal criterion names are now formatted much better. · Before: "Armor Trimmed Silence Armor Trim Smithing Template Smithing Trim" · After: "Silence Trim" Names are cleaned up, shortened, and easier to read. Bug Fixes · Fixed completed advancements showing remaining criteria · Fixed criterion names being too long · Improved text formatting throughout Configuration New config options: · update-checker.enabled - Enable/disable update checking · update-checker.notify-on-join - Notify players on join New Permission · advancementtracker.updatenotify - Receive update notifications (default: op) Installation Notes If updating from 8.11.25.1 or earlier: · Stop your server · Delete the old config.yml in plugins/AdvancementTracker/ · Replace the jar file · Start your server · The new config will be generated automatically This update makes the plugin significantly more useful for tracking complex advancements.

What's New Category-Specific Progress When you complete an advancement, instead of showing overall progress, it now shows progress for that specific category. Example: · Complete "Stone Age" from the Story category · Message shows: "Story progress: 1/16 (6.3%)" · Complete "Ice Bucket Challenge" from the Nether category · Message shows: "Nether progress: 3/9 (33.3%)" This gives you more useful information about which categories you're progressing in. Hover for Details Hover over the progress message in chat to see: · The advancement name · The advancement description This lets you quickly remind yourself what you just completed without opening the GUI. Categories Tracked · Story · Nether · The End · Adventure · Husbandry Why This Matters Before: You'd see "Progress: 50/124" but wouldn't know which category you were progressing in. Now: You see exactly which category you're making progress in and can hover to see what you did. This update is live now. No configuration changes needed.
