PvPBox CUSTOM PLUGINS CUSTOM MAP & MORE v3.1.1

Changelog for Version 3.0.0​

Overview​

This release introduces PlaceholderAPI (PAPI) support to our plugin for the first time, alongside significant updates to several core systems, including the Kit Selection Menu. PlaceholderAPI is now a mandatory dependency, providing dynamic placeholders and enhanced customization throughout the plugin.

Key Changes​

PlaceholderAPI Integration​

PlaceholderAPI is now required for the plugin to function. Without it, key features such as the Scoreboard, Chat, and Kit Selection Menu will not work properly. PlaceholderAPI offers:

• Dynamic Placeholders: Access placeholders from PAPI or other PAPI-compatible plugins.
• Easier Configuration: Replace hardcoded placeholders with standardized ones.
• Cross-Plugin Compatibility: Leverage placeholders from a wide range of third-party plugins.

Configuration File Changes​

The plugin’s configuration file has been restructured to replace custom placeholders with PAPI-compatible ones. This includes changes for the Kit Selection Menu, which now uses PAPI to dynamically display kit-specific information, such as cooldowns, descriptions, and stats.

Important: You must update your configuration to use PAPI placeholders and install the required PAPI expansions.

​

Feature Updates​

Kit Selection Menu​

• The Kit Selection Menunow fully supports PlaceholderAPI. This allows for:
  • Dynamic display of kit details (e.g., name, description, cooldown time).
  • Integration with stats and progression systems using PAPI placeholders.
  • Improved flexibility for customization, enabling tailored menus for different player needs.

Scoreboard Configuration​

• In the config file, you can add a lot of lines as you want, before, it was restricted to the only features that you have. Now, you can add datas of PAPI.

Other Updates​

New Features​

• PAPI Integration Across All Systems:
  • Full support for Scoreboard, PlayerJoin/Quit events, Chat, Booster, Ping, Levelling System, /stats, PlayerDeath, Ratio system, and BoosBar.
• Dynamic Chat Customization:
  • Added support for dynamic message formatting with PAPI placeholders and customizable colors.

Bug Fixes and Maintenance​

• Resolved issues with placeholders in stats, ratios, and death event displays.
• Improved performance by optimizing placeholder logic.
• Added unit tests for Booster, Chat, Updater, and other key systems.

Performance Enhancements​

• Reduced JAR size for efficient loading.
• Updated dependencies, including Mockito, for compatibility.

​

Migration Instructions​

1. Install PlaceholderAPI: Download and install PlaceholderAPI on your server. This is now a mandatory dependency.
2. Adapt Configuration: Update your plugins/PvPBox configuration file to replace old placeholders with PAPI-compatible ones, including those for the Kit Selection Menu.
3. Install Placeholder Expansions: Ensure you install PAPI expansions relevant to the placeholders used in your setup (math, Player, statistic, and Server).
4. Verify Your Setup: Test all systems, especially the Kit Selection Menu, to confirm placeholders are resolving correctly.

Important Notes​

• PlaceholderAPI is mandatory for this update. The PvPBox plugin will not work without it.
• All old placeholders have been replaced. Configuration files must be updated to use PAPI placeholders.
• The Kit Selection Menu now fully supports dynamic placeholders for an improved player experience.
