Happy Holidays! Here is the first AdventCalendar update of the 2024 season:

- Ensured support for 1.21
- Added the ability to customize claimed and unclaimed versions of gifts including:
- Removed the /ac editor command, as the feature has been delayed

You will need to remove your config so that the newer config will generate, or things will break

Prevents players from using hotkeys on the presents, which could cause the items to be duplicated if lagging. I'd also like to thank everyone for downloading and using my plugin this winter and for getting us to over 1K downloads, it means a lot!

Fixed a bug with slots required where it was counting armor and offhand, it should now be working as intended.

Fixed a bug where you couldn't run /ac force <player> from the console.

Added a new lines into the config for slots-required so that the user cannot claim the gift if they don't have enough space. If you are updating from an older version, you need to regen the config or add these lines manually, otherwise it will break!

Swapped the message and command order so that the claim message displays before the user gets claimed items.

By request, there is now a check in place to prevent players from claiming the calendar unless they have 1 free inventory spot. The error message that it sends can be customized in strings.yml. Please make sure to delete strings.yml or manually add the new line so it doesnt cause an error.

I also rewrote the code that does player head textures again in the hopes that the bugs for it finally stop!

Added a PlaceholderAPI placeholder %adventcalendar_total_claims% which can be used in any other plugin that supports PlaceholderAPI to show how many gifts the player has claimed! PlaceholderAPI is still not required if you don't want the features so don't worry!

I also removed a line I left over from testing that would print "LEFT" every time you clicked an item in the preview calendar... sorry!

This update should (hopefully) fix all of the annoying inconsistencies with player head rendering between different versions of spigot and paper.

This update also adds support for PlaceholderAPI placeholders for commands only. Placeholder API is not required, so if you don't want to use it you don't have to!

I also added the ability to claim items without the GUI closing by Right Clicking them instead of Left Clicking. This should hopefully make it a bit easier for testing out all of the gifts in the preview calendar.

As we approach the holiday season, it's time for an Advent Calendar update! This update adds some small (but needed) changes ahead of the 2.0.0 rework that will (hopefully) be done before December 2023.

Changes:

• Restructured Commands
  • I know if feels like I change the command structure like every update, but this one sets us up for long term success and i promise they wont change (much) again.
• Gifts now use NBT Data
  • This means that if you don't want to have the %day% in the name of your gifts, you don't have to! This was a much needed change.
• All strings now get processed with Iridium Color API
  • Kind of a nerd change but this enables support for hex color codes, as well as gradients and rainbows. Learn more here:
    IridiumColorAPI - Github
• Added the ability to change the month and day the calendar opens
  • Just in case you don't want your calendar in December, its the start of options that will make the use cases much more flexible if you wanted something like a summer calendar instead!
• More Detailed Admin Permissions
  • Just separates reload and preview into separate sub permissions under admin in case you want to restrict access to those things
