CHANGELOG:
Check out the wiki for more information by clicking here.
- Updated Server Engine to Paper 26.1.2 (Build #70) [REQUIRES JAVA 25 - Not sure how to check your version or to update it? Check out this guide.]
- Optimized all internal plugins for full compatibility with version 26.1.2, including reliable SkyWars arena loading on the new 26.x world format.
- Enabled cross-version support for players joining from 1.9 up to 26.1.2.
- Replaced the leaderboard, lobby item and void plugins (DecentHolograms, ajLeaderboards, ItemJoin, VoidTeleport) with a single lightweight SkywarsAdditions plugin: lobby items, Top Wins / Top Kills (also a new Top Levels) leaderboard holograms and the lobby void teleport.
- Added solo / team arena opener NPCs in the lobby.
- Added daily & weekly quests that pay coins on completion: each player gets a random rotating selection (accept them, or enable auto-accept), with reset timers. Quests and the quest menu are now configured in their own, easy to edit SkywarsAdditions/quests.yml.
- Added /lobby, /l and /hub shortcuts. In a game they leave it; in the lobby they connect to a configurable BungeeCord lobby server (or the lobby spawn).
- Added a /help menu listing the main game, lobby and party commands.
- Reworked the announcements: refreshed the design and fixed duplicate broadcasts and the script reload warning.
- Reworked the play menu: a Quick Join button and a Map Selector that opens the arena list; added a Quick Play / Random button to the arena lists.
- The cosmetics menu was restyled: the category selector shows a description, how many options you have unlocked (with a percentage) and your currently selected option; each option shows its level requirement and coin cost; the rewards menu was restyled to match.
- The in-game leave item is now "Return to Lobby": right-click to start a 3-second teleport back to the lobby, right-click again to cancel.
- Now default server messages like advancements, death messages are not shown.
- Disabled the Minecraft 1.21.6+ player locator bar to preserve the competitive game experience.
- Parties now join games together from Quick Join and /sw join (solo/team), not only when picking a specific map in the menu; the party leader takes the whole party in and members are kept on a common team where possible.
Warning!!!
Before updating, make sure to back up your current server. After that, copy your modified files into the new setup most importantly, replace the SkyWars folder with your own version. Once done, start the server to ensure the database is saved.
