KinglyBosses 5.1.0-ALPHA-2

March 31, 2026

---

GUI & Interaction Enhancements

• Drag-and-Drop Reward System: Added support for dragging items directly into the reward editor slots (Top Rewards) for automatic saving.
• Advanced Equipment Editor: Implemented functionality to equip bosses by dragging weapons and armor into dedicated slots within the creation and edit menus.
• Hybrid Reward Logic: New system that allows toggling between physical item rewards and custom command execution via interactive chat.
• Dynamic Creation Menu: New bosses can now be configured with full equipment (Main hand, Off-hand, and Armor) during the initial setup process.

Boss Customization

• Custom Effect Integration: Added the option to define custom potion effects when creating or editing a boss using a simple comma-separated syntax in chat.
• Visual Equipment Persistence: Assigned equipment is now registered in the items configuration file, preserving custom names, lore, and enchantments.
• Stat Adjustment Logic: Refactored the base stats system (Health, Damage, Speed) with support for rapid increments via Shift-Click.

Technical Improvements

• Persistent Data Handling: Optimized the use of PersistentDataContainer for tracking item metadata within the interfaces.
• Automated ID Generation: Implemented a "clean" ID generator based on the boss's display name, removing special characters and preventing duplicates.
• Draft System: Integrated concurrent maps to store temporary drafts of effects and commands during the asynchronous creation process.
• Safety Patches: Selective inventory locking to allow interaction with the player's own inventory only in menus that require item transfers.

Changelog - KinglyBosses

Core Updates

• Base Version Migration: Successfully transitioned the plugin core to 1.8.8 to ensure legacy stability and performance.
• System Foundation: Established the V5-ALPHA core architecture, refactoring the BossManager for improved null-safety.
• Coordinate Support: Added support for both relative (~ ~ ~) and absolute coordinates in the /kboss spawn command.

GUI & User Interaction

• Version-Specific GUI: Completely redesigned the Graphical User Interface (Main, Config, and Edit menus) to be fully compatible with version 1.8.8.
• System Chat Integration: Implemented a standardized System Chat logic for consistent color formatting and automated messaging across all plugin interactions.
• Menu Security: Patched critical inventory exploits that prevented players from stealing UI items or breaking menus via shift-clicks.

Technical Systems

• Timer System Refactor: Modified the internal Timer class to handle group timers and respawn intervals more effectively within the new base version.
• Configuration Schema: Updated all .yml files to the current format, resolving bugs where world names were saved with incorrect quoting.
• Memory Management: Integrated a new memory-leak-free damage tracking system and optimized UUID-to-Player conversions.

Performance & Stability

• Spawning Optimization: The WorldBossSpawner now utilizes direct YAML path lookups instead of slow loops, significantly reducing server lag.
• Anti-Lag Measures: Improved spawning logic to ignore non-natural entities (spawners, breeding) and strictly respect spawnRandom settings.
• Thread Safety: Migrated to ConcurrentHashMap for safer handling of asynchronous chat events and data synchronization.
