v1.1.1 — Config auto-update & update checker fix

Fixes

- Fixed update checker not detecting new versions on some hosting providers due to proxy caching. - Corrected bStats plugin ID.

v1.1.0 — Update checker & bStats fix

New features

- Automatic update checker. The plugin now pings Spigot on startup to check for a newer version. Operators with the veinminerx.update.notify permission receive a chat notification on join when an update is available. - Configurable in config.yml under update-check.enabled and update-check.interval-hours (default: 6 hours). - The check runs asynchronously and uses a lazy cache refresh — no fixed scheduler, no impact on server performance. - New permission veinminerx.update.notify (default: op).

Fixes

- Corrected bStats plugin ID.

How it works

1. Sneak (shift) and break an ore block with a pickaxe 2. All connected ore blocks of the same type are mined instantly 3. Drops, Fortune, and Silk Touch work exactly like vanilla - Your pickaxe never breaks — mining stops at 1 durability remaining - Unbreaking enchantment is fully supported (reduces durability loss chance) - Works with all ore types including Deepslate and Nether ores
