Full Changelog: https://github.com/TobiasDeBruijn/HaroTorch/compare/2.4.3...2.4.4

HaroTorch v2.4.3

Changes
- Updated for Minecraft 1.18

HaroTorch v2.4.2
- Fixed a bug where /torch aoe could crash the server
- Fixed a bug where in 1.17.1 the highlighted torches would not dissapear ( /torch highlight)

HaroTorch v2.4.0

Changes
- Compatibility with Minecraft 1.17
- Reworked configuration file
- Added option for using a square rather than a circle for the HaroTorch. Set
shapeCircle to false in the configuration file to use this.

HaroTorch v2.3.1
- Fixed GitHub #11: Trapdoors can no longer be openend/closed when a torch is ontop of them
- Fixed a bug where blocks with a torch ontop could burn up
- Fixed a bug where a block with a torch on the side could be broken (This has some implications, since I just check if a torch is on the side, not if it is actually attached to the block, expect this to change in a future update)
- Added anonymous metrics: player count, memory usage, Minecraft version, OS, java version and timezone

HaroTorch v2.3.0
- GitHub #10
- Added a command cooldown
- Particles from /torch aoe are now client-side only.

Upgrade guide
To use the new command cooldown, add the following to your config.yml:

# Command cooldown in seconds. Default: -1. -1 to disable.
commandCooldown: -1

HaroTorch v2.2.3
- Fixed Github #7: Torches can now no longer be broken by piston movement
- Added an update checker so you'll know when a new version of HaroTorch is available
- Fixed Github #8: /torch aoe particle spawning in the nether. Particles will now spawn at the y height of the torch, and above and below it (rather than only above). This only applies when the torch is in the nether.

HaroTorch v2.2.2
- Version compatibility: Switched to using reflection rather than the classes directly. This means that the plugin should be compatible with most future versions without much change.
- Torch limits: You can now limit the amount of torches a player is allowed to place down.

Update guide
You'll need to change two files to be able to use the new torch limits.

Append the following to config.yml:
# How many torches are players allowed to place down
# Set to -1 to disable
torchPlaceLimit: 5

Append the following to en.properties:
torchLimitReached=You have reached the limit of torches you are allowed to place down! You have placed %PLACED_TORCHES%/%TORCH_LIMIT% torches!

If you are using a different language, make sure you update that respective language file too!

Java compatibility
As of this version, Java 8 support has been dropped. If you want to use HaroTorch v2.2.2+, you'll have to use at least Java 11.

Fixes Github issue #5.
- Magma cubes and ghasts could still spawn with a haro torch placed

HaroTorch Version 2.2.0

Changelog

- Added #3 : Config option to let non owners break a HaroTorch
- Added #2 : Config option to exclude mobs, Config option to only block Hostile mobs

I am actively working on adding more commands, improving existing ones, and rewriting commands from v1 which are currently missing. Make sure you check back here regularly

I've been a little busy (and lazy), so here is the 1.15.2 version of HaroTorch

Changelog:
- Optimization of 1.5

Hey people!

I've been doing some work on HaroTorch whenever I've had time, hereby the first results. I do not remember exactly what was in the previous version, but for what I remember, here's the changelog:

• Phantoms and Slimes are now affected
• ALOT of optimization
• Commands added: /ht list, /ht check, /ht aoe. See /ht help for an explanation!
• Changed the Torch to a white stained glass block. (why? this was a big request by the player's of Haro's server; will be configurable)
• Spawners are no longer affected
• The Wither is no longer affected

Incompatibilities with the previous update:

• If you had unplaced torches, these will no longer be placable.
• Old HaroTorches should continue to function, but cannot be moved

This should be the only incompatibility. There should none in the future either.

Enjoy the plugin
