⚠️ Important: If you are upgrading from HuskTowns v1.8.2, you must follow the legacy migration upgrade guide.

HuskTowns 2.0 is a major rewrite of HuskTowns that brings forth massive improvements to the data loading system, redesign chat interfaces, a simplified command structure and a whole host of other quality of life changes, new features and improvements.

  • The plugin has been rewritten from the ground up with a much more elegant internal code structure.
  • Massively improved data load times. Town and claim data is now saved as json objects in the database, which has undergone a schema redesign.
  • Redid all user interfaces and messages, bringing them in line with my other plugins.
  • Redid the command syntax and permissions listings for most commands. Please check the updated commands list.
  • Separated the config into multiple files to make it easier to read and edit; config.yml, levels.yml, roles.yml and rules.yml
  • Added town audit logs (/town audit).
    • Whenever a change is made to a town (new members, promotions, demotions, evictions, renamed, etc...) it will be logged.
  • You can now change the color of your town (/town color)
    • An interactive chat menu is also available to help you choose
  • Reworked how town plots work slightly
    • Town plots no longer have an "owner"; instead, they have a group of members, some of which are "managers", who can add additional members
    • The /town plot command has been updated as a result
    • Removed the ability for members to "claim" unoccupied plots, for the time being (this will be re-implemented eventually)
  • Added two new perks for leveling up a town; crop growth and mob spawner spawning rates will now increase in farm chunks as the town levels
  • Added a command for an administrator to assume ownership of a town, which will force-join a town and set them as the mayor (/town takeover)
  • Reworked the town bonuses system;
    • The person who applied the town bonus is no longer logged with the bonus, but rather in the town's audit log instead
    • Two additional town bonuses have been added to let administrators apply bonuses to the crop growth rate and mob spawner spawn rate boosts in farm chunks
  • Added a town spawn privacy admin bypass permission node, to allow administrators to teleport to private town spawns
  • Reworked the town claim list (now town "deeds") to provide a better visual overview of the number of claims made by a town
  • Added additional sorting options for the town list and improved its interface.
  • The plugin will now persistently save player preferences, including if they have town chat, auto-claiming and ignore-claims toggled.
  • When using the /map command, the plugin will now highlight the chunk the user is standing in
  • Slightly improved the way in which chunks are highlighted; particles will now always highlight slightly within the chunk borders
  • More commands, such as the town list command, can now be executed through the server console
  • Added brigadier syntax highlighting to commands via commodore
  • Added additional sub command list ("help") menus which display the command syntax
  • Added support for Plan (Player Analytics); the plugin will now provide an overview of town data on player and server pages.
  • Added a new LuckPerms context provider to the hook (husktowns:town-level), which is set to the level of the player's town
  • Updated support for BlueMap and Dynmap to their latest API version
  • Removed the default set of shortcut commands. You can define aliases in commands.yml at your discretion to replicate these if you miss them.
  • Removed the ability for towns to color format the town bio, greeting and farewell messages due to it conflicting with menu formatting
  • Removed the ability to auto-claim admin chunks
  • Removed two online player tracking features, for the time being (this will be re-implemented eventually):
    • Removed TAB completion for the invite command
    • Removed the Online Status of players in the town member list (now "census")
  • Fixed a number of claim protection issues, including the ability for outsiders to extract honey from protected beehives, among others
  • Placeholders: HuskTowns' PlaceholderAPI expansion ("HuskTownsPlaceholders") has been updated to v2.0, with a new set of placeholders.
    • If you're using this, please download the expansion update from the eCloud.
  • API: Added a new Developer API@v2 with vastly expanded capabilities, including the ability to edit towns and make claims through the API
    • The new API even provides consumer methods for easily editing towns
    • HuskTowns API@v1 has been deprecated but is still implemented. Most plugins built to use the old API should still work provided they don't make calls to old internal methods.
    • Consult the API docs for more information
  • API: Added three new API events: MemberJoinEvent, MemberLeaveEvent and MemberChangeRoleEvent

To update from v1.8.2, you must follow the legacy migration upgrade guide.
Enjoy!
