Bounty | Cross Server - Folia v3.0.5 — Cross Server & Folia Support

Working on API

New Features & Improvements

• New Tax System - Added a configurable tax system for bounty collections to help balance server economies
• Enhanced Sort System - Fixed sort order display and cycling to match configuration exactly

Tax System

The new Tax System creates a more balanced server economy by deducting a configurable percentage when bounties are collected:

• Tax can be completely disabled in config
• Tax information shows in bounty collection messages
• Special permission (ultrabounty.notax) for players who shouldn't pay tax

New Configuration Options

Code:

tax:
  enabled: true
  percentage: 28  # Tax percentage (0-100%)
  message-enabled: true  # Show tax details in collection message

messages:
  tax-applied: '&#f80000Tax (&#f80000%tax_percentage%%&#f80000): $%tax_amount%'
  bounty-reward-with-tax: '&#8af313Congratulations! You killed %target% and received $%bounty% as bounty reward. %tax_message%'

permissions:
  notax: "ultrabounty.notax"
