Life Insurance

LifeInsurance Plugin – Changelog / Update Highlights

Version: Updated build

1. GUI Improvements

• 🖼️ Expanded GUI to 18 slots for a cleaner layout.

• 💰 Buy Insurance slot is now clearly defined (slot 4) — clicking other slots does nothing.

• 🪦 Player Profile Head added (slot 9): shows the player’s current balance using Vault.

• 🟢🔴 Insurance Status slot (slot 17):

  • Lime Dye: Insurance active, shows remaining hours & minutes.
  • Red Dye: No insurance, inventory is not protected.

2. Insurance Purchase Logic

• ✅ Only triggers when clicking the buy insurance item (slot 4).
• 💸 Checks player balance using Vault and deducts the configured price.
• ⏳ Activates insurance for the configured duration.
• 📁 Saves active insurance to insurances.yml, so it persists across server restarts.

3. Death Protection

• 🛡️ Protects inventory and experience if insurance is active.
• 💀 After saving, the insurance is consumed automatically.
• 🔄 Expired insurance is removed from storage automatically.

4. Optional Kill Skull Feature

• ⚰️ When a player is killed by another player and kill-skull is enabled in config:

  • Drops the victim’s player head at the death location.
  • Head displays the victim’s name.

5. Economy Integration

• 💰 Fully compatible with Vault economy plugins.
• Displays player balance in GUI.
• Deducts configurable price when buying insurance.

6. Storage & Persistence

• 📁 All active insurances stored in a separate insurances.yml file.
• 🔄 Insurances survive server restarts.
• Automatically loads active insurances on plugin startup.

7. Configurable Options

• Price, duration, GUI title, item type, name, and lore fully configurable.
• Optional kill-skull feature controlled via kill-skull boolean in config.

8. Code & Safety Improvements

• Null safety checks for items and meta in GUI.
• Clear separation of GUI slots for buy, status, and profile.
• Insurance time displayed in hours and minutes for better clarity.
• Cleaned up storage logic to prevent config clutter.

---

Summary: This update makes LifeInsurance more user-friendly and visually informative: players can now see their profile, balance, and insurance status at a glance. It also introduces a kill-skull feature, GUI improvements, and ensures all insurances persist safely with separate storage.
