This hotfix makes the plugin persist itself after reloading PlaceholderAPI

me bacc with major overhaul! thanks TheGiv32 for the feature request!

What's New?

• [IMPORTANT] Command /whereami has been renamed to /whatbiome. The old one still works, but if you have explicitly set the permission to false, change the permission to playerbiomes.command.whatbiome
• [IMPORTANT] Configuration changes from 5.0.0 to 7.0.0! The plugin will automatically generate a new config.new.yml file for you. Please check it, edit the values, and rename it to config,yml!
• The plugin now supports complete localization! This can be done one of two ways:
  • Force a locale set in the config to all players on the server
  • Automatically fetch the player's locale and send the translated version of the biome name
• For the above to work, you have to supply the language file (as found in Minecraft Java assets/lang/ folder). Alternatively, the plugin can download vanilla language files as needed. Read the configuration file for more information!
• If the language file for the locale is not found and auto-download is disabled, the plugin will fall back to displaying the names as it used to (by formatting the biome's namespaced key directly).

This hotfix makes the plugin return the biome properly on paper and derivatives

Release 6.9.0-EOL for 1.16.2+ [COMMEMORATING 1000+ DOWNLOADS]

weheheheheaayy long time no see So, in the time I was gone, very recently, Spigot has changed something internally and getting the biome name via Spigot/Bukkit API no longer returns CUSTOM whenever there is a custom biome involved. Therefore,

What's New?

• The plugin no longer depends on JeffLib for placeholder registration and biome fetching on 1.21.3 and above (using Bukkit API)
• Unless there are breaking changes to PlaceholderAPI/Bukkit API, this release can be used for many more Minecraft updates to come.

This plugin was created in the intention of preserving support for all versions of Minecraft, and make it easier for me to rebuild it for newer versions without needing to dig into the code for every version. Atleast when I was searching for ways to get the player's biome (even if the biome was defined in a datapack), Spigot/Bukkit API did not give a way to get the custom biome name, instead it only returned CUSTOM. I was told by a developer ( @mfnalex ) that it was possible only through NMS, and that he had a library (JeffLib) that allowed me to skip the NMS BS and just get the namespaced biome directly.

The reason it is a plugin and not an expansion is because I use(d) the library (under his advice) to register the placeholders too. Now the reason has changed because it is no longer just an expansion, it also has a command and its own configuration.

I thank you all for downloading my plugin over a 1000 times. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making learning Java feel worth. Hope we meet again soon! (well maybe not very soon, I am sure the plugin won't need updates any time soon!)
