Simple Combat v1.1 Release Notes

Platform & Multi-Version Support:

• Folia Support: Added native Folia compatibility (folia-supported: true) with cross-platform regional task scheduling (ServerScheduler).
• Bukkit & CraftBukkit Support: Removed direct Spigot-API lock-in, enabling full support for standalone Bukkit/CraftBukkit cores.
• Multi-Version Adapters (1.8 – 1.21.x+):
  • Version-adaptive display: automatically renders BossBar countdowns on 1.9–1.21+ and Action Bar countdowns on legacy 1.8.x servers.
  • Safe entity detection for lingering potions (AreaEffectCloud), primed TNT, tamed wolves, tridents, and wind charges without bytecode errors on legacy cores.
  • Enum-safe teleport cause handling to prevent NoSuchFieldError on older versions.
• Rebranding: Renamed to Simple Combat with /simplecombat command and convenient aliases (/combat, /sc, /ct).

Performance & Asynchronous Engine:

• Asynchronous Ticker: Session countdown tracking and template formatting now run on dedicated async worker threads, eliminating main-thread overhead.
• Asynchronous Reload: /simplecombat reload performs disk I/O and cache rebuilding asynchronously without TPS drops.
• Localized Message Caching: Pre-computed and cached colorized messages on startup/reload.
• Fast-Path Color Parsing: Bypasses HEX regex evaluation when # is absent.

Bug Fixes & Improvements:

• Fixed Combat Tagging for OPs: Bypass permissions (simplecombat.bypass.*) now default to false so server operators can test combat without unintended immunity.
• Bypass Safety Setting: Added enable-bypass: false in config.yml to prevent wildcard (*) permission holders from bypassing combat by default.
• Legacy Warning Removal: Set api-version: '1.13' to eliminate CraftLegacy initialization warnings on modern servers.
• Startup Console Banner: Displays server software, detected version, language, and status on startup and reload.
