Assasins

1.2.0

New features

• Offline players can take part. /assassin start now includes everyone who has ever joined the server (online and offline). Use /assassin start online for online players only, or /assassin start <names...> for a custom list. The chain is always random.
• /assassin skip <player> removes a player (e.g. someone who never joins) from the event. His hunter automatically takes over his target, so the chain stays closed.
• /assassin add <player> puts a removed player back into the chain at a random place.
• /assassin list shows all participants, their targets, kills and who is online.
• /assassin top – a public leaderboard (permission assassin.top, enabled for everyone by default).
• Start options: days:30 (only players seen in the last 30 days) and duration:48h (the event ends automatically; supports m, h, d).
• Auto-skip of inactive players: auto-skip-offline-hours in config.yml (0 = disabled).
• Event survives restarts and crashes. The state is saved after every change. The event is no longer ended when the server stops.
• Rewards for offline winners are saved and delivered when the player joins.
• Tie-break: a tie is decided by kills of the player's own assigned target. If it is still tied, all tied players win and get the reward.
• Direction arrow on the action bar, and a normal compass in the inventory now points to your target.
• "Hunted" title and sound when a new assassin is assigned to you, and an announcement when only 3 hunters remain.
• Languages: English and Czech (language: en / cs). Any message can be overridden in config.yml.

Fixes

• Eliminated players can no longer earn kills (previously they could farm kills by killing each other and even win).
• Only participants of the event can score points.
• Anti-farm: killing the same player again within 10 minutes gives no points (anti-farm-minutes).
• Respawn protection: killing a player who died less than 30 seconds ago does not count (respawn-protection-seconds). This does not make the player invulnerable.

Notes

• Requires Paper 1.21+ (Spigot is not supported) and Java 21.
• New settings are added to your existing config.yml automatically; your configured reward is kept.
• Delete the old plugin JAR from your plugins folder when updating.
