Added support for Minecraft 1.21.4.

2.19.1:

• Optimized packet latency, especially for 1.19+ which had a workaround for a bug which has since been fixed.

• Fixed an error which could occur since 1.20+ specifically when stacking an item next to an existing item. ("Failed to encode packet")

This problem was unfortunately missed during testing, because stacking items does not always cause this error.

This release supports the following versions: 1.8 <-> 1.21

- Fixed armor stands becoming visible on 1.20+ with "show-item-names: false".

Added support for Minecraft 1.20.1. (edit: Also working on 1.20.6).

* I've done my best to ensure backwards compatibility (1.13 and below should still work), despite several generations of protocol changes.
As I don't have the time to individually test every legacy version (1.8, 1.9, 1.10, 1.11, 1.12, 1.13) there is a possibility that things will break. If that happens, let me know and I will fix it as soon as possible.

* Note that Minecraft 1.14 itself has unresolved performance issues. You may want to keep this in mind before updating :)

Fixed errors under Minecraft 1.8 due to changes in last release which depended on new methods not present in older Minecraft versions.

Fixed a bug which caused the item pickup sound to play indefinitely if a player's inventory was full.

The plugin now has full support for Spigot 1.10 (tested on 1.10.2).
ProtocolLib update is recommended, and can be downloaded here: http://ci.dmulloy2.net/job/ProtocolLib/293/

Added support for QuickMarket.

Added API for preventing BetterDrops from replacing an item - if a dropped item has metadata for the key "betterdrops_ignore", it will be ignored by BetterDrops.

Fixed a bug with player heads / skull items, default offset has been corrected so that they will not intersect with blocks which they are standing on.

Left click pickup radius for click-pickup has been increased.

Made it less likely for drops to float in the air if they were dropped near the edge of a block.

Added an option to disable 3D drops, giving you regular items with customizable nametags.



In config.yml:

Fixed issue: Items would be teleported incorrectly or hover in the air if dropped onto soul sand or grass path blocks.

Added "item-whitelist" option to config.yml. If this list is not empty, only items in this list will become 3D drops.

For example:
With this configuration, only stone, eggs, and diamond pickaxes will become 3D drops.

Optimized custom item names and custom item directions, the plugin will be much less intensive if you have a lot of them configured.

Fixed drops falling off edges with wall-fix enabled.

Added "item-name-format" which will allow you to customize prefixes and suffixes (including colors) for all items.

Added option "force-click-pickup" to the configuration. This allows you to force players to pick up items by clicking on them.

New options:

Added /drops toggle. This command allows players to opt-out of seeing 3D drops.
Permission "betterdrops.toggle".

Added option "click-pickup" to the configuration. Enabled by default, this allows players to pick up drops by clicking on them.

Added workaround for ProtocolLib bug. If any other ProtocolLib errors occur, they will be caught and won't prevent the plugin from functioning.

Added support for ProtocolSupport.

Added support for 1.7 clients. They will not be sent 3D items.
This will probably not work on Spigot #1649.

Added possible fix for 3D items not being removed properly.

This means most items (not including tools/blocks) will be small again, unless I can find another way to prevent items from being rendered black.

Fixed another rare exception.

Added configurable "minimum lifetime" of drops, this will prevent 3D drops from interrupting miners by spawning them only after 20 ticks have passed.

Added limit for 3D drops in an area in order to prevent clientside lag.

(Two items have to be placed outside of the merge radius, then an item is dropped in the middle of the two items, forcing all of them to merge)

Added CrackShot grenade/bomb support.

Added option for configured custom names to override existing item names.
By default, an item's existing custom name will be used instead of the configuration's custom name.

Added configurable custom names for items.


Item amounts can now be shown on dropped 3D items, by default, it will show the number in brackets.

Added configurable directions for items.

Fixes:

Dropped items will now move, so if water carries them away, they will flow correctly.
Fixed errors sometimes thrown when the plugin is disabled.

Added custom item names support, if an item has an existing custom name when it's turned into a 3D drop, it will be shown instead.

It does not affect what other players see.
Toggled players will persist after restarts, their UUIDs will be saved to toggled-players.yml.
