FallenKingdoms MiniGames v26.1.4

We’ve shipped a focused gameplay and stability update for v26.1.3 with a stronger nighttime flow and cleaner packet handling.

• Hostile night progression is now configurable and active from night start
  • Added configurable charged creeper spawns on a nightly schedule
  • Added a configurable hostile wave system during night for ongoing assault pressure
• Assault phase scaling
  • Spawn intensity now increases correctly during assault
  • Optional blood-moon/extra-wave behavior retained and tunable via config
• Gameplay control and performance safeguards
  • Added configurable wave interval, amount per wave, assault multiplier, and nearby mob cap
  • Improved mob selection logic for stronger, more natural night pressure
• NPC packet robustness (server stability)
  • Native NPC packet flow was hardened for modern protocol differences
  • Better fallback/retry behavior reduces blank, missing, or unstable NPC states
• Compatibility & config clarity
  • New config sections exposed under settings.charged-creepers and settings.hostile-night-spawns
  • Designed to work cleanly on long-supported versions (including legacy-compatible environments)

Perfect for teams who want harder, more consistent night assaults while keeping control over tuning.

• Fixed a crash in PlayerInteractEvent caused by invalid cosmetic icon configuration entries (especially legacy/legacy-color material names).
• Cosmetics now use safe material fallback logic, preventing malformed config values from breaking lobby interactions.
• Fixed related side-effects where team selection and other right-click items could become unresponsive after a cosmetic error.
• Improved cosmetic loading resilience: invalid cosmetic definitions are now skipped gracefully instead of aborting the full parse flow.
• Maintains all cosmetic and game system behavior while hardening against config mistakes.

FallenKingdoms 26.1.2 is now available.

This update introduces a brand-new tactical team feature: Kingdom Banners.

Each team can now choose one banner before the match starts. Once the game begins, the team receives a special Banner Power item that can be activated once per match by any teammate.

New Kingdom Banners:

- Stone Shield
Temporarily reduces incoming damage for the whole team. Perfect when your heart is under pressure.

- TNT Fury
Temporarily boosts TNT heart damage and gives extra TNT to the team. Ideal for coordinated assaults.

- Scouting Vision
Reveals enemies inside your base area and gives your team better awareness before a counter-push.

What changed:

• Added the new Kingdom Banners system
• Added a dedicated banner selection menu
• Added a lobby banner selector item
• Added an in-game banner activation item
• Added one-use-per-team banner logic
• Added configurable banner durations, damage reduction, TNT multiplier, TNT reward and scouting radius
• Added English and French default messages
• Added the {banner} scoreboard placeholder
• Added clean item handling to prevent banner activation items from dropping on death
• Updated plugin version to 26.1.2

Configuration:

Everything can be customized under:

settings.city-banners

You can enable or disable the system, choose the default banner, and tune every banner effect.
