Reworked-BETA-1.3.4​

Reworked-BETA-1.3.3​

Welcome to ParadiseLand BETA-1.3.1, here is the list of new features, improvements, and bug fixes in this release!
PLEASE READ
This update is compatible with BETA-1.3.0 (for those in possession of it) and BETA-1.2.1 and the configurations will be updated automatically. Anyway, I strongly recommend you make a backup because I take no responsibility if you lose data.

The license won't work properly due to a Spigot issue :/

The online documentation is now available!

What's new

Added two new biomes, namely: Grown Plains, Rocks, and Mushroom.
So from this release, the count of all default biomes is 19!

Grown Plains [1.17+]

This is the first biome that does not exist in vanilla Minecraft. It is a safe zone because it has lighting and hostile mobs do not spawn here.

Rocks

Just rocks...

Mushroom

This biome is similar to the vanilla one but it is not in the middle of the ocean.

Major features

1. Trails and Bridges and statues
   
   
   
   
   
2. Configurations now update automatically from an older version
3. A lot of fixes

Welcome to ParadiseLand BETA-1.2.1, here is the list of new features, improvements, and bug fixes in this release!

PLEASE READ
This update is compatible with the old one, but I suggest you delete your "/plugins/ParadiseLand" folder and regenerate the world. In the other case, I take no responsibility if you lose the world, so make a backup.

What's new

Added two new biomes, namely: Cherry Grove and Snowy Ice Spikes.
So from this release, the count of all default biomes is 15!

Cherry Grove [1.20+]

Like the vanilla one, in this biome, you can find the new cherry tree, pink petals on the floor, and as a new iconic feature, the light block illuminates the gloomy night.

Ice Spikes

This biome is similar to the vanilla one but the ice spikes are small and pointed or huge and procedurally generated.

Major features

1. Beehives will spawn around the world in Spigot 1.18+!
   
   
   Bees are available from Minecraft 1.15, but I was forced to add this feature from Spigot 1.18 for a technical issue.
   Code (YAML):
   entities:
   bees:
   nest:
   # [1.18+ FEATURE]: the probability to spawn a nest on a tree (a value between 0 (never) and 1 (always)).
   frequency: 0.0
   # [1.18+ FEATURE]: the honey level of the spawned nest (min: 0 and max: 5)
   honey-level: 3
   
   
2. Added a new option to avoid the protrusion of ore veins by editing this new property in each biome file:
   Code (YAML):
   ores:
   frequency: HIGHER
   # True, if you want the ores to be generated outside the island shape.
   protrusion: false
3. A new option to generate ice spikes has been added. You can find it in any biome config file:
   
   Code (YAML):
   surface:
   ice-spikes:
   # The maximum number of ice spikes per chunk
   # > A value between 0 and 4.
   count: 0
   # Frequency to spawn an ice spike.
   # > A value between 0 (never) and 1 (always).
   frequency: 0.0

Minor features and fixes

1. From 1.19, leaves that spawn in water will be waterlogged.
2. Fixed some Bamboo blocks from falling.
3. Vines now spawn correctly around the swamp tree.
4. Fixed mob spawning on the snow block.
5. Fixed mob spawning on tree leaves and ice.
6. Fixed many solid blocks that were removed when creating caves.
7. Fixed incorrect spawning of small ore veins (now emerald ore blocks spawn correctly)

Welcome to ParadiseLand BETA-1.2.0, here is the list of new features, improvements, and bug fixes in this massive release!
PLEASE READ
This update is not compatible with the old one! The world and the folder /plugins/ParadiseLand MUST BE DELETED. I take no responsibility if you lose the world, make a backup.
RIVERS

MORE BIOMES!

1. Forest
2. Birch forest
3. Dark forest
4. Plains
5. Jungle
6. Savanna
7. Swamp
8. Desert
9. Badlands (mesa)
10. Taiga
11. Taiga plains
12. Snowy taiga
13. Snowy plains (tundra)

These biomes are based on Minecraft 1.8.8-1.12.2, and new biomes such as Bamboo Jungle will be added in future releases (You can do it yourself).

Improvements:

1. The island generator has been updated, it behaves differently and you can now add all the layers you want.
2. All mobs are supported from the default bukkit populator (i.e. frogs spawn automatically in swamps from 1.19+).
3. Fish and aquatic mobs were added in 1.13+.
4. Two new types of temperatures were added (COLDEST, COLD, MILD, HOT, SCORCHING).
5. In 1.17+ the bottom of the islands can be illuminated with the light block!
   
   
6. Other little things you can find in the generator/biome configurations.
7. New tree schematic files added.

Fixes:

1. Fixed stuck and dead animals during spawning.
2. Fixed BlockData configuration with more than one parameter.
3. Fixed the world spawn location under certain circumstances.
4. Other minor issues were fixed...

You can now run ParadiseLand from 1.8.8 to 1.19.4.

Welcome to ParadiseLand BETA-1.1.8, here you can find the list of improvements and bug fixes of this release:

• 1.19.1 and 1.19.2 are now fully supported;
• Added stored chunk cleanup during inactivity;
  in main.yml you will find the following configuration:
  Spoiler
  Code (YAML):
  async-placer:
  # Enable or disable the async chunks placer;
  # This feature cleans the database by placing stored chunks from the world's database.
  # !! It is beneficial with large worlds that require much time to load.
  enabled: true
  # The number of stored chunks that can be placed to the generated chunks.
  # !! Border chunks won't be placed
  # > Min value: 1
  # > Max value: 1000
  # NOTE: Doing an aggressive chunk placing will produce a server overload.
  # This means that if this value is greater than 100 (depending on your hardware)
  # more RAM and CPU could be used.
  chunks: 250
  # If false, the async placer will be executed when there are no online players.
  # > Default value: false
  # NOTE: If you want to set this property to true, set a very low number of chunks to place
  # otherwise, a server overhead and lag will occur.
  # For instance, you can do it while the server is in development and nothing cares about lag.
  forced: true
• Lake improvements: added sugar canes and underwater blocks;
  Spoiler
  Code (YAML):
  plantains:
