Towny 0.98.6.0
TownyChat 0.101

Welcome to Towny 0.98.6.0.
Towny 0.98.6.0 is the seventh release in the 0.98.*.* series!
This is primarily a hotfix release that patches an issue present in 0.98.5.0, update your server ASAP!
0.98.6.0 supports all versions of Minecraft 1.16 and newer.
This is a drag-and-drop update: just replace your old .jars with the new ones and Towny will take care of the rest of the update by itself.
0.98.6.0-specific changes.

The Following changes were made since 0.98.5.0, the remainder of the changelog is from 0.98.5.0.

  • Make StatusScreen colouring methods public in TownyFormatter.
  • Add allowedToWar Town setting.
    • Defaults to true, but set in the config.
    • Makes it possible for war plugins to know they should not allow certain towns to take part in wars, and for admins/other plugins to opt towns out of wars.
  • New Config Option: town.default_allowed_to_war
    • Default: true
    • Default status of new towns, (are they allowed to have a war/battle?)
    • This setting is not used internally by Towny. It is available for war/battle plugins to use.
    • Setting this false should mean your town cannot be involved in a war supplied by another plugin.
  • New Command: /ta town TOWNNAME toggle allowedtowar [on|off]
    • Toggles a town's allowedtowar setting on/off.
  • Update TownClaim task.
    • Changes it from using Thread to Runnable, add clearer comments, make code more readable.
    • Fix refunds for /t unclaim all, probably fixes a unclaim refund exploit.
  • Fix paintings and item frames being unbreakable, courtesy of Stealth2800 with PR #6427.
➕ Added (30)

➕ Added:

  • Make it possible to use /t deposit [amount] {townname}.

    • Doing so will allow a player to deposit money into any town bank.
    • This feature will require an admin to give the node to their players in the townyperms.yml, it is disabled by default.
    • Closes #6346.

  • Allow the TownyMap system to properly parse Unicode characters U10000 and greater.

    • Anyone using unicode characters for the TownBlockType map symbols should already be using the \u#### format in the config.
    • The value you use should be the HTML-code variable of the Unicode you want to use.
    • You can now begin using \u10000 and larger.

  • Add /res toggle adminbypass.

    • Bypasses the permissions tests that make ops/players with towny.admin able to act as admins.
    • Useful for staff that want to play like normal players.
    • Closes #3939.

  • Improve vanished-wont-affect-resident-last-online support, from using only Essentials, to supporting all plugins that use the "vanished" metadata on the player.

    • Also prevents setting last-online when a player logs out.
    • Plugins which work: SuperVanish, Essentials.
    • Plugins which still do not work: VanishNoPacket.

  • Add Founder to town.

    • Stores only the name of the original mayor, which means name changes aren't factored in, but that's too much work.
    • If founderName is null it will pull the existing mayor's name.
    • Founder is displayed in the town status screen next to Founded: 'Date'.
    • Closes #6306.

  • Add more comments to the Config's new world section, making it even clearer how to adjust world settings.

  • Add the ability to toggle a world's delete-entities-on-unclaim feature.

  • Add ability to disallow commands being run by players that have an active war.

  • Make /town plots output translatable.

  • Add warning on startup about PowerRanks.

  • Add support MC 1.19.3.

  • Support for y less than 0 for revert-on-unclaim.

  • Add DRAGON_EGG,CRYING_OBSIDIAN to revert-on-unclaim block ignore.

  • Improve tab completion for /n rank.

  • Add PluginIntegrations class.

  • Load chunk async for protection regen task, courtesy of Warriorrrr with PR #6385.
    • Requires you to be using Paper to take advantage.
    • Closes #6337.
  • Make bossbar chunk notifications configurable, courtesy of Warriorrrr with PR #6384.
  • Add min distance options for new towns, courtesy of Warriorrrr with PR #6398.

  • Reformat Contributing.md, courtesy of GNosii with PR #6254.
  • Improve javadocs with tags, courtesy of GNosii with PR #6304.
  • Delete unused es-419, courtesy of GNosii with PR #6351.
  • New TrustedTowns feature, courtesy of Kali0033 with PR #6276.
    • It is now possible for a town to add another town as trusted.
    • This means that anyone in the 2nd town can do any build/destroy/switch/itemuse as if they were a mayor in the first town.
    • Obviously this should only be given out under very limited circumstances, anyone added to the 2nd town after trust is given will also have full plot perm rights in the first town.
    • There is a confirmation warning the player that uses the /t trusttown add command.
