ChunkSpawnerLimiter v5.0.0 Preview
The next major version is a significant performance and usability overhaul.

Key Changes:

• Requires Java 21+ and supports Minecraft 1.8.8 - 1.21.10.

• Better Performance & Simpler Config: A new, merged configuration with smarter defaults and automatic world detection.

• New "Mode" Setting: Replaces old options with a flexible system (e.g., enforce, prevent, kill) for handling mob limits.

• Future Plans: Potential region support (like WorldGuard) is planned for v5.1.0.

Better Task cancelling by @PanSzelescik in https://github.com/sarhatabaot/ChunkSpawnerLimiter/pull/84

Entities Feature

• Moved entity limit calculations to an async task to prevent server lag during chunk inspections.

Blocks Feature

• Faster Checks – High-limit blocks (like stone/dirt) now use a cache system for instant checks.
• Accurate Limits – Low-limit blocks (like spawners) still scan chunks to ensure precision.
• Reduced Lag – Cache automatically clears when chunks unload or blocks break.

Config & More debug

• Config option – Adjust cache.min-limit-for-cache: 50 in blocks.yml to balance speed/accuracy.
• More debug logs.

Starting with this version, all new versions will go up on Modrinth, instead of Spigot.
I will still keep this page up to date on major versions. But to get the latest fixes and changes I suggest you follow the Modrinth page instead.

* Fixed an issue with the block feature.

Full changelog at: https://github.com/sarhatabaot/ChunkSpawnerLimiter/releases/tag/v4.2.1

You can now limit blocks per chunk via a blocks.yml file.
By default this feature is disabled so make sure to enable it via the blocks.yml file.

2 new messages have been added to the config.yml:

• Added Info command: /csl info or /cslinfo. Permission csl.info
  
• Added Settings command: /csl settings or /cslsettings. Permission csl.settings
  
• Added Reload command alias: /csl reload
• Some minor optimizations

Info & Settings commands simply print out what you have in your config.

* Added reload command with /cslreload
* Permission is csl.reload.
* Fixed an error on server startup. See #3.
