v1.8 (2026-07-16)

🐛 Bug Fix: Chat Message Placeholders Not Resolving

• MessageUtil now resolves {curly-brace} placeholders (e.g. {boss}, {player}, {amount}, {rank}, {damage}) via .replace() before MiniMessage parsing.
• Added applyCurlyPlaceholders() helper that runs a simple string-replace pass on the raw message.
• Integrated PlaceholderAPI support: if PAPI is hooked, PlaceholderAPI.setPlaceholders(player, message) is called on every outgoing message.
• Added per-player PAPI resolution in broadcast() methods so each player receives their own placeholder values.
• New parse(message, placeholders, player) overload for player-contextual parsing.

🐛 Bug Fix: Boss Health & Attack Damage Not Applying from Config

• Updated ActiveBoss.setupEntity() to use Paper 1.21+ attribute names:
  • Attribute.MAX_HEALTH (was GENERIC_MAX_HEALTH)
  • Attribute.ATTACK_DAMAGE (was GENERIC_ATTACK_DAMAGE)
  • Attribute.MOVEMENT_SPEED (was GENERIC_MOVEMENT_SPEED)
  • Attribute.KNOCKBACK_RESISTANCE (was GENERIC_KNOCKBACK_RESISTANCE)
• Ensured setBaseValue(configHealth) is called before entity.setHealth(configHealth) so the server raises the cap before filling the health bar.
• Extracted applyAttributes() method for reuse.
• Added public refreshAttributes() method for live-reloading boss stats.
• BossManager.reload() now also reloads arenas via ArenaManager.reloadArenas().

🐛 Bug Fix: Arena Module Silent Initialization Failure

• Wrapped all world-dependent setup (BossManager, ArenaManager, AutoSpawnManager, hooks, commands, listeners, tick tasks) in a 20-tick delayed scheduler task in onEnable() so custom worlds have time to load.
• Added ArenaManager.loadArenas() which reads arena configs from BossDefinition and validates Bukkit.getWorld(worldName) with a null-check — logs a warning instead of silently failing.
• Added ArenaManager.reloadArenas() for hot-reload support.

🔧 Plugin Version

• Bumped from 1.5 → 1.8.

🥚 Spawn Egg CustomModelData

• /zoryth giveegg now sets CustomModelData on the spawn egg item.
• Added cmd: field to model: section in boss YAMLs (optional, default 0).
• ModelConfig parses and exposes the cmd value.
• Each boss YAML updated with a unique cmd value (1001–1013).
