ClearDropsPlus 1.3 - Smart Entity Cleanup Update

ClearDropsPlus 1.3 adds a new smart entity cleanup system and improves protection for custom items and player-owned entities.

Added

• Added Smart Entity Cleanup for animals and mobs
• Added separate global timed entity cleanup
• Added optional chunk-load entity cleanup
• Added per-group entity limits for farms and mob-heavy chunks
• Added separate animal limits for cows, pigs, chickens and sheep
• Added entity protection for named, tamed, leashed and saddled entities
• Added protection for villagers with professions
• Added protection for named villagers and named iron golems
• Added /cd entityscan to inspect entity groups in the current chunk
• Added /cd entityclear to clean entity overflow in the current chunk
• Added custom item protection for names, lore, CustomModelData and PersistentDataContainer items

Changed

• Entity cleanup is now separated from item cleanup
• Item cleanup and entity cleanup can use different timers
• Entity cleanup only scans already loaded chunks and never force-loads chunks
• Messages now visually separate item cleanup and entity cleanup
• Entity cleanup messages now show nearby block coordinates and chunk coordinates

Improved

• Better protection for custom items
• Better admin tools for checking farms and crowded chunks
• More readable config structure for entity cleanup
• More control over low-end server performance

Notes

The material blacklist still only applies to dropped items by material type.

Custom item protection is configured in config.yml under item-protection.

It is recommended to back up your old config before updating and compare it with the new default config.
