Release 7.0.0

Important

This is a major update and changes a lot of things. It is highly likely to break some things in your server integration of BlockBall and requires you to fix them.

Important

It is highly recommended to simply delete the /plugins/BlockBall folder to start over with BlockBall. The arena files are mostly compatible and will load as expected. The previous language file and signs will not work.

Changes

• #521 Removed the chat menu and replaced it with modern commands. (Tab completions, tooltips, etc.). The chat menu has been designed 9 years ago and was originally designed to make it easier to create arenas. These days, tab completion has improved enough to be the better choice.
• #521 Removed the commands: /bbjoin, /bbleave, /blockballstop. They are now integrated into the /blockball command which now has got the aliases /soccer and /football.
• #521 Added new options to the config.yml. Rename or delete your current one to access them.
• #490 Replaced old sign handling with MCTennis style sign handling. You need to recreate your signs when you install this update. Signs now simply execute the /blockball join command instead of being a custom implementation. Sign handling may be further changed in the future.
• #521 Remade the entire wiki to be similar to PetBlocks and MCTennis. https://shynixn.github.io/BlockBall/wiki/site/
• #522 Readded the API

Release 6.46.0

Caution

Your configured rewards for winning a match will no longer work if you install this update. You need to reconfigure it using the description in the changes sections. The arena files are compatible but the rewards section is ignored.

Changes

• #494 Replaced reward options with command options. You can now execute commands when a player joins, leaves, wins, looses, ends in draw, scores a goal. Delete your arena_sample.yml to let it get recreated. The file includes examples at the line joinCommands.
• #494 This feature is also very useful to move players to certain permission groups during BlockBall games and remove them after the game. (e.g. only showing them a scoreboard if they are in a certain permission group)
• #494 Removed support for BungeeCord gamemode. These days bigger server use the server software Velocity and a dedicated gamemode is no longer neccessary. You can achieve the same thing with minigame mode.
