What changed

• Paintings and item frames are no longer fully unbreakable.
• They are now protected only from explosions.
• Normal break behavior is preserved for all non-explosion causes.

Technical fixes

• Added explosion-only checks for hanging entities:
• HangingBreakEvent -> cancel only EXPLOSION
• EntityDamageEvent -> cancel only BLOCK_EXPLOSION / ENTITY_EXPLOSION
• Removed invalid frame/painting handling from explosion blockList logic.

Dependency update

• CoreProtect API updated to 23.1 (from 22.4).

Recommended setup

• Use CoreProtect 23+ to avoid known 22.4 entity logging warnings.

Changelog

[2.0] – 2025-04-27

Added

• Guava-backed lookup cache (Cache<String,Boolean> placementCache) to dramatically reduce repeated CoreProtect block lookups.
• Localization support via config.yml (language: <code>) and external messages_<lang>.yml files for English, Russian, Spanish, Chinese, Hindi, Arabic, French, German, Japanese and Portuguese.
• Automatic resource extraction of all messages*.yml files from the plugin JAR into the data folder on first run.
• /ep command with three sub-commands:
  • status/info — shows plugin status and number of blocks protected in the last explosion.
  • language <code> — dynamically switch the plugin’s language at runtime without a server restart.
• Dynamic message loading (loadLanguageMessages(lang)) to reload translated messages immediately after /ep language is run.

Changed

• Explosion handling consolidated:
  • TNT chain reactions now explicitly allow TNT to break through, while all other blocks placed by players remain protected.
  • Unified logic for EntityExplodeEvent and BlockExplodeEvent into two succinct handlers.
• CoreProtect API check simplified to APIVersion() >= 7 (from >= 10) and proper plugin‐enabled test.
• Logging and user feedback moved entirely into configurable message files instead of hard-coded strings in code.
• Comments and documentation updated to English throughout the codebase.

Fixed

• NPE safety: all CoreProtect lookups and message loads guard against null and absent resources.
• TNT projectile: improved handling in ProjectileHitEvent to prevent lingering TNT entities from exploding unexpectedly.
