2.4.7

2.4.2​

MC 1.20.2 Support

This release adds support for Minecraft 1.20.2 servers.


Performance

GD's permission lookups have been completely re-hauled by reducing the amount of LP queries done per action. Server owners should see a significant performance boost with these changes.


Config Protection

Previously, if a server owner attempted to modify a GD config while server was running and made a syntax error it would lead to errors in console or crash. With the new update, after server has successfully loaded, if GD detects a broken config during '/gdreload', it will automatically revert back to last successful config state. This should provide server owners a piece of mind when needing to change configs live.


Changelog

Code (Text):

* Add MC 1.20.2 support.
* Add workaround for spigot bug causing crops to be duped in certain conditions.
* Add proper NPC support with new `#npc` context that replaces `minecraftlayer`
* Refactor permission checks by reducing amount of LP queries per action.
* Fix permission lookups causing `default-groups` in flag definitions not to work properly.
* Fix gddebug not showing events called by GDHooks.
Note: For example, MythicMob spawns now properly show up in gddebug.
* Fix EntityChangeBlockEvent not checking blacklist.
* All main configs will now revert back to last successful loaded state when an error is detected.
* Invalidate cache after claim transfer.
