v4.0.0 b6

This plugin is incompatible with LevelledMobs 3 and it's configuration files.

The wiki is accessible here: https://arcaneplugins.gitbook.io/levelledmobs-the-ultimate-mob-levelling-solution
Please be patient while we continue to work on this support resource.
In general, the functioning of the plugin remains the same as LM3.

Some of the new features incorporated into LevelledMobs4:

🆕 Modifiers section
| This new section of the rules will allow us to add other new planned features down the development road. We have moved the Player Level Modifier and the Random Variance Strategies into this section.
🆕 Strategy and Modifier Placeholders
| As part of a new feature, each Strategy and Modifier produces it's own placeholder tag which can be later combined together to produce any level of your choosing.
🆕 Combine multiple Strategies and Modifiers
| Now you can enable multiple levelling strategies at the same time and use the new construct-level setting to build a level using math and the numbers output from those strategies. By default we now use two strategies; but you can use as many as you want!
🆕 Superior 3rd Party Plugin Support
| Our already high degree of plugin support has been increased further with an entire file dedicated to defining any 3rd party plugin. You can search for any plugin via any information found in mobs through their PDC data table or through Metadata on that mob.
🆕 Using formula/math to construct attribute modifications or levels!

v3.12.0

A massive thank-you to PenalBuffalo for writing this update!

Changelog:

• when enabled (default) LM will store a hash against the current ruleset on each mob. If the rules change then that stored hash value will become invalid and when that chunk is loaded or a player is near the mob, the rules will be reevaluated

• fixed a bug when running command /lm reload it would start another instance of the async task scheduler
• two new rules relating to the chunk kill max system: disable-item-boost-on-chunk-max and disable-xp-boost-on-chunk-max
• when using the chunk kill max system and have disable-vanilla-drops-on-chunk-max set to true, xp drops are disabled as well
• if a mob has low remaining health and gets relevelled to a lower level, it will no longer die by having it's health reduced to 0
• overhauled some preset merging code
• fixed parsing of custom death messages in rules.yml
