SGChat | Hover Support | No Dependencies | PAPI Support

Changelog

[1.0.5] - 2025-11-18

Added

- Multi-language support - Language files moved to src/main/resources/lang/<code>.yml - Added placeholder language files: en, es, fr, de, pt, it (placeholders for translations) - Commands and system notifications are now translatable via lang/*.yml - New /sgchat subcommands: - /sgchat langs — list available languages in plugins/SGChat/lang/ - /sgchat validate-langs — validate missing keys across language files

Changed

- Messages now use language prefix automatically when retrieved via the messages manager - Update checker console and player notifications are now translatable and colored

Fixed

- Ensure translation files are loaded from plugins/SGChat/lang/ and warn when missing (no silent fallback to old messages.yml)

Removed / Notes

- The plugin no longer falls back to messages.yml; please migrate custom translations to lang/<code>.yml.

Changelog

[1.0.4] - 2025-11-15

Added

- Discord webhook integration - Optional webhook support to send server events to a Discord channel - Configurable username and avatar for webhooks - Chat relay to Discord - Optional: send player chat messages to the configured webhook (discord.send-chat) - Template configurable via discord.chat-message-template (placeholders: {player}, {displayname}, {message}, {server})

Changed

- Improved Discord embed handling for join/quit notifications - Embeds are used by default when discord.use-embeds is enabled

Fixed

- Fixed avatar fetch issues in Discord embeds - Crafatar UUIDs are now handled without hyphens and requests prefer a direct PNG URL - Added validation/fallback logic when building embed image URLs to reduce broken images

Removed

- Player avatar is no longer automatically attached to join/quit embeds by default (avoids broken/placeholder images)

Config Changes

Added to config.yml (under discord):

  # Chat relay: send player chat messages to Discord webhook
  send-chat: false
  # Template for chat messages sent to Discord (placeholders: {player}, {displayname}, {message}, {server})
  chat-message-template: "{displayname}: {message}"

Notes / Upgrade

- After upgrading, review and set discord.webhook-url and enable discord.enable: true to activate integration. - Restart the server after changing Discord-related settings.

Technical

- Uses asynchronous HTTP requests to avoid blocking the server thread when calling webhooks. - Embed JSON is built with safe escaping and optional author/thumbnail fields.

Changelog

[1.0.1] - 2025-10-05

Minor update with fixes, configuration improvements, and new features.

Added

- /clear command to clear the chat (permission: sgchat.clear). - Functional /unmute command with configurable messages (permission: sgchat.unmute). - Option to specify reason and duration in /mute <player> [time] [reason]. - ASCII banner displayed in console when the plugin is enabled (shows version, author, and Discord link). - CHANGELOG.md file with update history.

Improved

- Centralized all system messages (warnings, errors, confirmations) into messages.yml. - Chat formats, join/quit messages, and MOTD are now configured from config.yml. - MOTD is sent only to the joining player (not publicly broadcast). - Added support to disable per-group formats (chat.enable-group-formats) and the automatic mute system (chat.enable-mute). - Mute/Unmute messages now display duration and reason to both staff and the muted player. - /sgchat now displays a list of subcommands and requires the sgchat.admin permission. - /sgchat reload now reloads both config.yml and messages.yml.

Fixed

- Prevented double sending of join/MOTD/quit messages (removed extra class extending JavaPlugin and properly initialized managers). - Fixed issues caused by Component.toString() — now sends Adventure Components correctly formatted. - Fixed /unmute exception caused by missing getInstance() implementation. - Fixed duplicate listener and command registrations (now handled once via SGChatPlugin). - Corrected failed message and format conversions for proper display in both console and client.

Removed / Cleanup

- Removed duplicate or misplaced messages and keys from config.yml and messages.yml; cleaned and separated structure.

Update Notes

- Restart the server or use /sgchat reload after updating to apply changes. - Review config.yml and messages.yml, and verify permissions: - sgchat.admin → access to /sgchat - sgchat.reload → reload configurations - sgchat.mute / sgchat.unmute → mute management - sgchat.msg → private messaging - sgchat.clear → clear chat
