AegisGuard 1.3.5 Protect your world. Empower your players. Ascend. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Place two pads. Confirm. Arrive where you meant to. Current public release — the follow-up to 1.3.0. Teleport Beacons, ClaimBlocks that stay honest, Bedrock-friendly chest GUIs, and a soak of fixes from live 1.3.0 servers and Spigot review. GitHub 1.3.5 · Discord · Wiki Existing 1.2.7 and 1.3.0 data stay valid. Swap the JAR, start the server, confirm with /agadmin transition. Automatic backups and plot-build copies remain off until you enable them.​ What's new · Teleport Beacons — Linked pads on claims you manage. Confirm in a GUI, land only at the paired pad. Visit, market, and auction listings can require a public arrival beacon. Fee policy: owner_choice, always, or off. Optional fees can pay the plot owner. Travel uses Safe Travel. /ag home stays personal plot spawn. Pads survive claim merges and unbind if the plot is deleted. /ag beacon · Language placeholders — {PLOT}, {MIN}, {PLAYER}, and other {KEY} tokens now fill in on lang/ strings, not only English fallbacks. · ClaimBlocks — New claims count land as used plot area and no longer also spend() that area. Expansion is refused when the wallet cannot cover the extra blocks. Group claims check the leader's ClaimBlocks. · Minimum claim size — claims.min_radius is enforced on both axes (default 5 means at least a 10x10 plot). Skinny strips no longer pass because one side is long. · Bedrock / Geyser GUIs — Floodgate and Geyser players are detected automatically (gui.bedrock.detect, default on). Java keeps the usual mapping. Bedrock uses left-click for the main action, sneak+left (or swap-offhand) for the second, and drop to cancel. · Complete claim-data snapshots — Rollback restores guest passes, emergency lockdown, alliance access, and noticeboards together with owner, flags, members, and bounds. · Optional WorldEdit / FAWE plot-build backups — Staff-first, default off. Folia requires FAWE by default. Gradual automatic plot snapshots are a separate default-off switch. Bug fixes From 1.3.0 soak and review. · Restoring a snapshot after a plot changes owner no longer restores the wrong live plot · Staff snapshot restore is Folia-safe (plot region thread) · ClaimBlocks no longer go negative on expansion; min_radius applies to width and depth · Geyser / Floodgate players can finish player chest GUIs without relying on right-click · Beacon travel does not double-charge · Schema migration no longer turns a legacy *.enabled: false back on .SpoilerTarget">Spoiler: Full soak list · Snapshot prune respects the configured cap when age and count limits both apply · Rollback clears role nicknames added after the snapshot · Player menu footer no longer leaves empty clickable holes for non-admins · Staff Tools hides Routes, Arena, Expansions, Audit, and Snapshots when those modules are off · Saving a plot no longer auto-lifts an expired timed lockdown · Restore dispatch fails closed on scheduler shutdown, unloaded worlds, and rejected tasks; staff see build queued or partial instead of a false completed message Upgrade · Stop the server completely. · Confirm the host is running Java 21+. · Replace the plugin with AegisGuard-1.3.5.jar only (do not install the API jars). · Start the server. Config and language merge run on enable. Existing plots load as-is. · Confirm with /agadmin transition (aliases upgrade, v130). Doctor is optional. Do not use Bukkit /reload. Leave plot-build backups off until WorldEdit or FAWE is installed, then validate capture and restore on staging first. Compatibility · Java 21+ · Minecraft 1.20+ · Servers Spigot, Paper, Purpur, Folia, and compatible Bukkit forks · Upgrade path from 1.2.7 or 1.3.0 with automatic config schema migration · Optional Vault, PlaceholderAPI, WorldEdit / FAWE, Floodgate, Geyser-Spigot · Languages Modern English, Old English, Mexican Spanish, Argentinian Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, French, Italian, German, Polish ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Simple. Steadfast. Eternal. Forged by Aegis Divine.​

Teleport defaults off. · Alliance Access — membership grants nothing until the plot opts in. Risky toggles default off. · Language picker — nine packs, pick directly in Settings. · Server-zone stewardship — wand create and convert share one Steward pipeline. Also in this build · Same framed player menu; disabled modules do not show as icons. · Claim snapshots in 1.3.0 are claim data only. Optional WorldEdit/FAWE plot-build backups are coming in 1.3.5. · Arena cooperative PvE on by default (turn it off if you do not want it). · My Rentals, My Tenants, gift ClaimBlocks, claim merge, YML SQL migrator. Known issues (fixed in 1.3.5) These exist in public 1.3.0. They are addressed in the 1.3.5 tree and the upcoming 1.3.5 release (not on GitHub yet). · Restoring a snapshot after a plot changes owner can restore the wrong live plot. · Staff snapshot restore can run off the region/main thread (unsafe on Folia). · Snapshot prune can delete more snapshots than the configured cap when age and count limits both apply. · Rollback does not clear role nicknames added after the snapshot. · Player menu footer can leave empty clickable holes for non-admins. · Staff Tools can still show Routes, Arena, Expansions, Audit, and Snapshots when those modules are turned off. · Saving a plot can auto-lift an expired timed lockdown as a side effect. GitHub Release 1.3.0 has the same list. Install Put AegisGuard-1.3.0.jar in /plugins. Do not put the -api jars there. GitHub Release 1.3.0 Simple. Steadfast. Eternal. Forged by Aegis Divine.​

Critical Configuration Patch — v1.2.1 Crash Fix & Configuration Repair ​ First, I want to apologize. In the previous version (v1.2.0), a mistake in the internal files caused the Roles Section to fail to generate in your configuration. This resulted in server errors when trying to add members or assign roles to your plots. This update fixes that missing section internally. However, for the fix to take effect, you need to regenerate your file. ________________________________________________________ HOW TO UPDATE (PLEASE READ) Because the old configuration file is "broken," you must delete it. ​ · BACKUP YOUR SETTINGS: If you changed any settings (like prices or messages), please copy them into a text file or Notepad right now so you don't lose them. · Stop your server. · DELETE the config.yml file in the AegisGuard folder. · Delete the old .jar and upload this new v1.2.1 JAR. · Start your server. Once the server starts, a new, correct configuration file will be generated, and the errors with selecting roles and managing members will be gone.​ ________________________________________________________ What was fixed? ​ · Fixed an issue where the roles: section was missing from the default configuration. · Resolved NullPointerException crashes when opening the Role/Member menus. Thank you for your patience and for reporting this quickly! Discovered by Discord user Yero Forged by Aegis Divine ​
