VeinSpread

Welcome to the first public release of VeinSpread!

This plugin allows you to turn ordinary blocks into living, crawling veins — just like mycelium, sculk, or vines. It's lightweight, fully configurable, and designed to keep your server feeling completely vanilla.

✨ Features

• Organic Growth: Veins grow in winding lines with branching paths, not just simple circles.
• Full Control: Configure step speed, vein length, branching frequency, and direction inertia.
• Target Blocks: Define exactly which blocks can be "eaten" and what they turn into.
• Time Conditions: Make veins grow only at night, only during the day, or always.
• In-Game Management: Use the /vein command with tab-completion to change settings on the fly without restarting the server.
• Lag Protection: Built-in limits to prevent server lag (max tips per catalyst).

🔧 Technical Details

• Persistent Growth: Active veins are automatically saved to veins.json every 5 minutes and on server shutdown. Veins will seamlessly resume growing after a restart.
• Smart Chunk Loading: Veins gracefully pause at unloaded chunks and resume when a player loads the chunk.
• Localization: Full English and Russian support that adapts to the player's client language.
• Platform: Paper / Spigot / Purpur / Bukkit
• Minecraft Version: 1.21+ (Tested on 1.21.11)
• Java Version: 21
