GracePlugin v1.0.3 Changelog

This update introduces several new features and flags to enhance the functionality of the GracePlugin.

New Features

Grace Period Pause and Resume

Admins can now pause and resume the grace period timer. This is useful for server maintenance or other events. * /grace pause: Pauses the grace period timer. * /grace resume: Resumes the grace period timer.

Command Blocking

A new command-blocking flag has been added to regions. When enabled, this flag will block the commands listed in the blocked-commands section of the config.yml file. This can be used to prevent players from using commands like /home or /tpa to escape combat.

New Region Flags

The following new flags have been added to regions: * allow-flight: When set to true, players will be allowed to fly in the region, even if they are not in creative mode. * item-drop: When set to true, players will be prevented from dropping items in the region. * item-pickup: When set to true, players will be prevented from picking up items in the region.

New Permissions

* grace.pause: Allows players to use the /grace pause command. * grace.resume: Allows players to use the /grace resume command.

New Configuration Options

The config.yml file now includes a blocked-commands list. This list contains the commands that will be blocked when the command-blocking flag is enabled for a region.

blocked-commands:
  - home
  - tpa
  - spawn

Fixed bug where grace period remained active indefinitely if end time was in the past on server restart. Separated auto-start grace duration from the main grace duration to prevent unintended overwrites. Added a BossBar countdown visible to all players during the grace period showing remaining time. Added sound notification (Ender Dragon growl) to all players when the grace period ends. Made mob damage prevention during grace configurable and applied it to safe zones. Implemented per-world grace periods allowing grace to be toggled and configured separately per world. Introduced temporary safe zones with region claiming via /grace tools and /grace claim <name>. Provided special wooden pickaxe and shovel tools for region corner selection, only usable if given by the plugin. Added configurable flags for safe zones: block-breaking, block-placing, mob-damage, mob-spawning, and invincible-players (all disabled by default). Stored safe zone regions and flags persistently in a separate grace.yml file. Added commands to manage safe zones and flags: /grace <regionName> <flag> <true|false>. Improved messaging with action bar timers, titles, and cooldown messages to reduce spam. Added permission checks for all commands and features to ensure proper access control.

Version 1.0.1 - Major Update New Features 1. Grace Period Persistence Across Server Restarts Description: Grace period state now persists through server restarts and crashes Implementation: Both graceActive status and graceEndTime are saved to config file Benefit: No more lost grace periods when server restarts unexpectedly 2. Auto-Start on Server Startup Description: Configurable automatic grace period start when server loads Configuration: auto-start: true/false - Enable/disable auto-start auto-start-duration-seconds: 120 - Duration for auto-started grace period Benefit: Perfect for server resets or scheduled maintenance periods 3. Countdown Broadcast System Description: Automatic countdown announcements during final 10 seconds Implementation: Broadcasts "Grace ends in X second(s)!" messages Benefit: Players get clear warning before PVP enables 4. Enhanced Entity Protection Description: Configurable entity blocking system (placeholder) Implementation: Framework for future entity-specific blocking configuration Benefit: Flexible protection beyond just player vs player combat Critical Bug Fixes 1. Memory Leak Prevention Issue: HashMap<Player, Long> caused memory leaks as players logged out Fix: Changed to HashMap<UUID, Long> using player UUIDs instead of Player objects Impact: Eliminates memory buildup over time, improves server stability 2. Refined Wolf Protection Logic Issue: All wolves were protected, including wild wolves unrelated to PVP Fix: Now only protects tamed wolves owned by players Implementation: Uses wolf.isTamed() && wolf.getOwner() instanceof Player checks Impact: More targeted protection that doesn't interfere with normal gameplay 3. Grace State Synchronization Issue: Potential desync between memory state and saved state Fix: Immediate config save when grace period starts Impact: Prevents state loss between command execution and server shutdown 4. Negative Time Display Prevention Issue: Grace timer could display negative seconds Fix: Added bounds checking in formatTime() method Impact: Cleaner, more professional time displays Technical Improvements 1. Enhanced Command Sender Handling Change: Replaced string-based console detection with ConsoleCommandSender instanceof check Benefit: More reliable and maintainable console command handling 2. Improved Config Management Change: Reduced unnecessary config saves to prevent overwriting user changes Benefit: Better preservation of custom configuration settings 3. Action Bar Integration Feature: Grace period remaining time displayed above experience bar Benefit: Constant visual reminder for players during grace period 4.
