MobManager

This release focuses on fixing a critical bug in the plugin's core spawn mechanics and adding widespread server version compatibility.

🐞 Fixes

• Critical spawn-chance Bug Fixed: Spawn chance values greater than 1.0 (e.g., 2.5) now correctly increase mob spawns as intended.
  • Previously: The plugin logic only decreased the spawn chance (for values < 1.0) and ignored any values > 1.0. This made the example in the default config.yml (ZOMBIFIED_PIGLIN: 2.5) non-functional.
  • Now: A spawn chance of 2.5 will correctly spawn 2 mobs guaranteed, with a 50% chance to spawn a third.

⬆️ Compatibility & Improvements

• Added 1.16.5+ Support: The plugin has been re-coded from Java 17+ (record) to Java 11 (final class) to ensure full backward compatibility.
• Fixed UnsupportedClassVersionError: This resolves the crash that occurred when attempting to run the plugin on servers using Java 11 (common on 1.16.5).
• Universal Version Support: Thanks to these changes and the api-version: '1.16' flag, this plugin now supports all server versions from 1.16.5 to 1.21+ with a single JAR file.

This is a global update to the plugin, introducing full multi-world support, a mob swapping mechanic, and numerous fixes to improve stability and performance.

IMPORTANT UPDATE NOTE

Due to a complete overhaul of the configuration file structure, old versions of config.yml (v1.x) are not compatible with this version.

For the plugin to work correctly, please completely delete your old config.yml file before the first launch of this new version. The plugin will automatically generate a new config.yml v2 with all the new features and detailed comments.

[+] Added

• Multi-World Support:

  • You can now configure mob spawning individually for each world on your server.
  • Added global-settings (default settings) and world-settings (world-specific settings) sections to config.yml.

• Mob Swapping Mechanic:

  • Added the ability to replace one spawning mob with another (e.g., a Skeleton with a Zombie).
  • This feature can be enabled, disabled, and configured for each world separately.

• New Command /ms swap:

  • /ms swap <world> enable|disable — to enable/disable the swap system in a world.
  • /ms swap <world> <from_mob> <to_mob|none> — to create or remove swap rules.

• Config Versioning System:

  • Added a config-version field to config.yml to track its version and assist with future updates.

[*] Changed

• Complete config.yml Rework: The file structure has been completely redesigned to support the new features, making it more logical and flexible.
• Expanded Existing Commands: All old commands (set, enable, disable, info) now accept an optional [world] argument.
• Improved Tab-Completion: Command auto-completion has been significantly reworked to support new arguments, including world names.
• Spawn Handling Logic: The spawn event interception and handling mechanism has been rewritten for better stability and compatibility with different server versions.
