Release 1.17.0

Compatibility

✔️ Minecraft 1.17
✔️ Java 16

Note: This version requires Paper/Spigot 1.17+ and Java 16 to run.

BentoBox now has a new API that enables Addons to be loaded using the server plugin classloader. This will mean that plugins will be able to access API and data directly in Addons. These new Addon/Plugin hybrids are called Pladdons. You will need to update BSkyBlock and other addons to use this version of BentoBox.

Upgrading

Upgrading from 1.16.5 must be done very carefully and is beyond the scope of BentoBox. Make sure you make a lot of backups and be prepared to use them.

Downloading

You can download the addons and BentoBox in GitHub or download from https://download.bentobox.world.

Release 1.16.1

Change Log

1.16.1 brings some new features and bug fixes to BentoBox. A number of the improvements are around languages (locales) so to see them you will need to delete your old language files so that BentoBox can recreate them. If you have customized your files, do not do this otherwise you will lose all your customizations.

Other notable changes are the addition of a new event in the API: IslandNewIslandEvent. This is fired after the player is teleported to a new island. This can be used by addons to run code that needs to be run only after the player has arrived on their new island. One example is with Boxed, where achievements are cleared for the player.

New Features or Improvements

• In 1.16.0, admins could set island settings using the command line. This release we added the ability to set the spawn island settings. (commit: 031d789).

• Added locale strings for the DamageCause enum. Used in InvincibleVistors (commit: d97d15d)
• Translate ja.yml via GitLocalize (#1711) (commit: 487fa6a)
• Added DamageCause into zh-CN.yml and zh-HK.yml. (#1721) (commit: b8d9b73)

Bug Fixes

• Avoid loading or enabling disabled addons. (commit: 1feaddf)
• Remove debug lines. (commit: 0769af0)

Release 1.15.5

Change Log

• Revert "Persistent entities should never be removed. (#1608)" (#1626) (commit: 054ed30) - this was preventing mobs from being removed when teleporting to an island or when mobs moves outside of the island because by default Bukkit sets all entities as persistent. We need to find another approach if this is desired.
• Translate tr.yml via GitLocalize (#1625) (commit: 93cb2d6) (Credit @OverBrave )

Release 1.15.4

Change Log

• Removes tamed animal ownership on new island (commit: aec2e11)

• Fixes #1602 - coarse dirt tilling is not effectively blocked on 1.16.x servers due to other hoe types (commit: e608a95)
• Caveblock reset/delete would crash server. Island deletion on 1.16.4 servers is now done using NMS for speed. (#1589) (commit: 98697b1) - This should enable CaveBlock caves to be deleted/reset without bringing the server to its knees. Other server versions use regular Bukkit API.

API changes/improvements

• Placeholders - see https://docs.bentobox.world/en/latest/BentoBox/Placeholders/
  • Added %[gamemode]_visited_island_uuid% placeholder. (commit: 72de030)
  • Added %[gamemode]_island_uuid% placeholder. (commit: 20ba834)
• API
  • Added deprecation JavaDoc to events that are moving to own class (commit: 0e7ab34) - a lot of BentoBox events are moving to their own classes instead of being inside IslandEvent or TeamEvent. If you use the API, shift to these new classes.
  • BETA - may change!!: Adds a persistent metadata API to User and Island classes. (commit: d7c7559) - See https://docs.bentobox.world/en/latest/BentoBox/MetadataAPI/
