Important info: Start time might take a bit in case you are running a large server together while using SQL. This is due slight restructuring in the database to improve the efficiency of certain requests. Do not stop the server, just wait until things work again. It is doing everything automatically. You will notice that it is still processing due to temporary load on the database and that stats, shops etc. don't work. This is a one-time thing, you won't have to do this again in the future.

• /mbedwars locateplayer command (Thanks to @MetallicGoat )
  • See what a player is doing, in which arena he is active in and what the progress of the arena is. Also allows you to easily teleport yourself to him
• Disable teleport GUI during death spectate (Thanks to @MetallicGoat )
• You may now customize the TNT explosion radius (which was already possible for fireball etc., but forgotten for TNT)
• You may now require players to have enough space in their inventory for purchases instead getting the excess dropped on the floor (Thanks to @MetallicGoat )

Added configs:
