Moar Bows

Warning using this build will make all your previously generated bows unusable. This update is mainly designed to provide better support for future versions of Spigot without having to wait for a new plugin update everytime. This update is required if you want to use MoarBows on 1.18 but is not necessary if you stay on 1.17 (just disable update notifications) as it won't add any major feature yet it will break your previously generated items. · Now only relies on Spigot API. Use of NMS has been entirely removed. This means that the moar bow ID is now stored in a MoarBows:MoarBow name spaced key and no longer directly as a NBTTag. · Major refactor moving every class away from the api package. · Added pagination to the bow browser(/mb gui) in case external plugins register their bows

· Added support for 1.16.5 and 1.17

· Added support for 1.16.2. · Fixed the default config. · Improved compatibility with future versions of spigot.

· Added support for 1.16 · Bows are now detected using NBTTags which means renaming a bow using an anvil won't create a custom bow · This is a change that will most likely break previously generated bows but due to recent changes in how display names are handled, it is nearly impossible to handle custom item checks through display names (lore is not an option either because lores do depend on the bow level). · You can now use {level} in the bows lores to display the bow level

· Fixed an issue that would prevent bows to work after a relog

· Fixed an issue with bow crafting recipes. · Cleaned up the code. · Fixed a memory issue that might fix bows not loading after a certain amount of time.

· Custom bows now work when equipped on monsters (skeletons can use custom bows). It should be compatible with other plugins as long as they fire the correct Bukkit event. · Cleaned up the code a little. Merry Christmas everyone!

· Bow levels: custom bows have stats which scale based on their level (any stat can be configurated as a linear function of the bow level) (still experimental) · Support for 1.15. · Please reset your config files, there were quite a few changes.

· Added support for 1.14 · This build only works with 1.13 and 1.14

· Fixed an issue with bow perm nodes. The new perm nodes are available on the resource page. · Fixed an issue with the disable.enchant & disable.repair config options. · Added a cancellable player event: MoarBowShootEvent that gets called when a player uses a custom bow. · Added an option to show enchants in the bow lore. · Changed some config options paths.

Fixed an issue with colored particles in legacy versions.

· Major API change which should improve the bow hand particles performance. · Added a landing sound to the Meteor Bow in 1.13 (bug fix). · Updated the documentation on GitHub.

· Bows that don't use vanilla arrows (e.g linear bow, laser bow) now handle the Power enchantment damage increase. · New bow: Laser Bow · Fixed a bug with the Linear Bow. · Fixed a bug with the Silver Bow.

Merry Christmas everybody · The Tripple Bow does not consume 6 arrows anymore.

This update fixed a bug that would occur when arrows hit the ground when using a 1.8 server. From now on, the file will be a .zip containing two .jar files · MoarBows.jar - for 1.8.x - 1.12.2 · MoarBows 1.13 - for 1.13

· WorldGuard & WGCustomFlags are now soft dependencies and will not display error messages in the console if you don't have these two plugins installed.

· Compatibility for 1.8 to 1.10 was added. · Compatibility for WorldGuard was added. Set the 'mb-disable-bows" to true in a WG region to disable bows. · Hover & Click event in the command /mi list! Please do tell me if you find any compatibility issue

· Two new magical bows! Pulsar Bow summons when it lands a pulsar (it's a fast-rotating neutrino star) which powerfuly attracts for 1.5 seconds every entity within 5 blocks. · The Meteor Bow (suggestion) summons a magical fire meteorite that dashes to the sky and deals insane damage to nearby entities when it lands, pushing them powerfully back. · Bug fix with the plugin bows.yml configuration auto-setup... I know there haven't been updates for a while... I was working on my other premium resources. Have fun with the Pulsar Bow (this is my favorite )!

· A Bows GUI was added so you can get all the bows in a much "handier" way, instead of using /mb get <bow> (player). · Warning: if you put stuff inside the GUI (beside the bows), it'll disappear when you close the GUI. · Code optimization.

· Instead of writing big ugly messages in the cmd, crafting recipe errors/typos will now be displayed when the server starts. (I made a typo and wrote IRON_IGOT)

Bug fix: the bow particles when arrows are fired and in-hand bow particles now work correctly when the bow name was changed.

Woohoo, updates are back! xD · New bows!! · Chicken Bow: consumes eggs to rapidly shoot... eggs. Care chicken spawns! · Blaze Bow: consumes an arrow to shoot a firebolt that deals damage and ignite players. · Shadow Bow: pretty much the same as the Blaze Bow, but with different particles, crafting recipe and no ignite. · The Marked Bows' particles were a bit changed: · marked players only emit a circle of particles when standing on the ground. · a wibbly wobbly particle effect now plays when players get hit by a marked arrow, and when the mark is consumed. · A few bug fixes, the Composite Bow and other "special bows" now correctly consume arrows when used. · Code optimization. · /give command now requires the original name and not the configurable one.

· Two parameters were added to the config.yml file: · disable-repair prevents players from using an anvil with a special bow when set to true. · disable-enchanting prevents players from using an enchanting table with a special bow when set to true.

· Bug fix: when creating again the bows.yml file, the "cooldown" parameter would be set to the bow's effect. Kinda weird.. · Error messages now display in the console when a wrong "effect" parameter is set, and no longer display "severe" error messages.

· Parameters added in updates now automaticaly appear in every configuration file! · Bug fix: the Ice and Snow Bows had the same default recipes!

· Bug fix: no longer displays a cooldown message when firing the Tripple Bow · THREE NEW BOWS! · The Autobow fires a flurry of a few arrows. The stronger you pull the bow, the more arrows you'll shoot. · The Wither Bow shoots exploding flying Wither skulls! · The Snow Bow shoots a few snowballs. The stronger you pull the bow, the more snowballs you'll shoot. As always, you need to re-create the bows.yml. This will definitely be the object of the next update.

Silver Bow on-hit effect can now be customized! Either re-create the bows.yml file, or add a parameter called "block_effect_id: [Item ID]" in the "Silver Bow" parameter!

· Particles of every bow can now be changed. Check the particle list in the main ressource page! Some of the particles are colorables. You can change their color by placing ":" after the particle name, followed by the RGB color. For instance, "REDSTONE:255,0,255" stands for purple redstone particles. · There is now a parameter to disable arrow particle effects. Don't forget to re-create bows.yml and config.yml! I know it's annoying, but I wanted to make a quick update as the last one was 2 weeks ago. I've already figured out a way to add an "automatic parameter generator" whenever you update the plugin, I'll certainly add it in the next update (more bows coming soon ).

Added compatibility with 1.9 and 1.10.

· New particles were added when holding a specific bow! Ex: flame particles on your hand when holding the Fire Bow. · You can now add color to the bows' names & lores in the bows.yml, using the minecraft default color codes (§b, §2)... · The Flare Bow was added! (arrows burst in giant fireworks!) · You can now configurate a lot of things! (Explosive Bow damage, Corrosive Bow poison duration, amplifier, and a lot more). Every bow now works on entities such as minecarts, boats, armor stands, and more. Don't forget to re-create the bows.yml and config.yml as ne parameters were added, and some were moved from the config.yml to the bows.yml file!

Railgun Bow now has its own permission.

· The Trippple Bow is now compatible with AlchemicalArrows. Just tell me if something is not compatible, so I can fix it. (I tested the Trippple with the Earth Arrow, it seemed to work.) · Permissions were added. They'll be displayed on the resource main page.

· The cooldown of each bow now totally prevents you from using it. · Fixed a bug with the Explosive Bow. · The bows applying their effect when hitting the ground now also apply their effects when an arrow hits a non-living entity (armors stands, item frames..) · No need to recreate config.yml, no configurable parameter was added!

· The railgun Bow was added! (shoots an exploding arrow that destroys block. Only works in minecarts and has a 7.5 seconds cooldown). · (In config file) You can now decide whether or not the special bows need to be entirely pulled back to apply the effects (full-pull-restriction, default is false). · You can also decide the railgun explosion's radius. Set it to 0 to prevent it from destroying blocks. · The most important part. You can now change the bows' names and lores in the bows.yml file (located in the plugin file)!!! !WARNING! When updating to a new version where something configurable is added to the configuration file (config.yml), you should delete config.yml and let the plugin create it again so every parameter will appear.

· New bow: Linear Bow (shoots linear arrows) · Trippple now normally consumes the 3 arrows (except in Creative mode!) · You now can't create the bows by renaming a normal bow with an anvil.

· Marked players (Marked Bows) now emit smoke particles around them (can be disabled in the config) · New bow: Cupidon's Bow (heals the target for 3 hearts) · Trippple Bow now consumes 3 arrows instead of 1. It cannot be used if you don't have enough arrows. · Lightning Bow'lt now works when hitting a player.
