ClearEntity
Advanced Entity & Lag Management for Spigot 1.20.1+

Welcome to ClearEntity! This plugin is your comprehensive solution for scanning, clearing, and managing entities on your Minecraft server. Developed for Spigot 1.20.1+, ClearEntity also helps identify high-density entity zones and potentially lag-inducing special blocks, keeping your server performance optimal.

✨ Core Features
  • Comprehensive Entity Scanning: Scan and get a detailed count of all entities currently loaded on your server.
  • Targeted Entity Clearing: Precisely remove all entities of a specific type.
  • Lag Block Detection: Scan for special blocks known to potentially cause server lag (e.g., Hoppers, Droppers, Dispensers).
  • High-Density Area Detection:
    • Grid-Based Algorithm: Intelligently scans for both high-density entity and block areas using a grid system to avoid redundant scans and prevent server overload.
    • Configurable Thresholds: Define the scan radius and minimum entity/block count to identify problematic zones.
  • Teleport to Hotspots: Instantly teleport to identified high-density areas for manual inspection and resolution.
  • Multi-Language Support: Comes with built-in support for English and Chinese (中文).
  • Localized Names: Displays entity and block names in the configured language for user-friendly interaction.

Commands
All commands require the permission: clearentity.admin

Basic Commands:
  • /ce scan - Scans and provides a statistical overview of all entities in loaded chunks.
  • /ce scanblock - Scans for potentially lag-inducing special blocks as defined in the configuration.
  • /ce clear <EntityType> - Clears all entities of the specified type. (e.g., `/ce clear ZOMBIE`)
  • /ce reload - Reloads the plugin's configuration files (`config.yml` and `message.yml`).

Density Scanning & Teleportation:
  • /ce scansize <range> <threshold> - Scans for high-density entity areas within a specified range where entity counts exceed the threshold.
    • <range>: The radius of the scan in blocks.
    • <threshold>: The minimum number of entities of the same type to trigger a high-density report.
    • Example: `/ce scansize 20 30` - Scans for areas within a 20-block radius containing 30 or more entities of the same type.
  • /ce tp <AreaID> - Teleports you to a high-density area identified by the `scansize` command.
    • <AreaID>: The numerical ID of the area displayed after running `scansize`.
    • Example: `/ce tp 1` - Teleports you to the high-density area labeled as #1.
Note: All commands feature robust Tab-completion for easy use.


Permissions
  • clearentity.admin - Grants access to all ClearEntity commands and functionalities. Essential for server administrators.

⚙️ Configuration
ClearEntity is highly configurable via `config.yml` and `message.yml` located in the `/plugins/ClearEntity/` directory.

config.yml:
Code (YAML):

# Debug mode
# Enable to see more detailed console output for troubleshooting.
debug
: false

# Language setting (zh: Chinese, en: English)
# When set to 'en', vanilla item names are not translated by the plugin's system.
# The plugin will use Minecraft's default localization for English.
lang
: en

# List of block types considered potentially lag-inducing.
# These are scanned by the /ce scanblock command.
# You can add or remove Material names from this list.
# Common examples:
# HOPPER - High-frequency item transport
# DROPPER - Item transport
# DISPENSER - Item transport and interaction
# COMPARATOR - Redstone signal detection

:
 - HOPPER
  - DROPPER
  - DISPENSER
  - COMPARATOR
  - OBSERVER
  - REDSTONE_WIRE
  - POWERED_RAIL
  # ... add more Material names as needed

message.yml:

  • []All plugin messages, including command feedback and UI text, are managed in message.yml.
    []This file allows for full localization. By default, English and Chinese translations are provided.
  • Switch the language by changing the lang setting in config.yml.

Technical Highlights

  • []Efficient Grid-Based Scanning: Utilizes a hash map to partition the world into a grid. This prevents re-scanning the same areas, drastically improving performance and avoiding server crashes during large-scale scans.
    []Type-Grouped Processing: Entities are grouped and processed by their type, leading to more efficient scanning and clearing operations.
    []Distributed (Ticked) Scanning: Large scanning tasks are broken down and spread across multiple server ticks. This ensures that scans do not cause noticeable server lag or TPS drops.
    []Dynamic Tab Completion: All commands and their parameters support intuitive tab completion, making them easier and faster to use.
    []Robust Multi-Language Engine: Messages are externalized to message.yml, allowing for easy translation and addition of new languages.
    []Localized Naming System: Entity and block names are displayed in the server's or user's configured language (via minecraft_lang.yml), enhancing user experience.
