New Features and Enhancements
Prestige System

• Prestige Command: Added a new /lifesteal prestige command which allows players to access a Prestige Menu.

Prestige Menu GUI

• Info Book: A book item that provides detailed information about the prestige system, including the maximum hearts without prestiging and the new maximum achievable hearts with prestige.
• Confirm Prestige: A lime shulker box item that allows players to confirm their prestige. The cost and reward for prestiging are clearly displayed.

Dynamic Messaging and Configuration Integration

• Dynamic Hearts Information: The info book in the GUI dynamically updates to display the player's current maximum hearts.
• Configurable Max Hearts: The maximum hearts achievable without prestige and with prestige are now configurable via maxHearts and maxPrestigeHearts in the config file.
• Cost Update in GUI: The cost of prestiging dynamically updates based on the player's current maximum hearts.

Prestige Mechanics

• Heart Deduction and Max Health Reset: Upon prestiging, the player's GENERIC_MAX_HEALTH is set to 10 hearts regardless of their previous health. This ensures a grind-based progression system.
• Incremental Heart Costs: Each prestige level has an incremental heart cost. For example:
  • From 20 to 21 hearts costs 10 hearts.
  • From 21 to 22 hearts costs 11 hearts.
  • The cost continues to increase by 1 heart for each additional level.

Validation Checks

• Prestige Eligibility Check: Ensures players have enough hearts to prestige. If a player does not meet the required hearts, they receive a message indicating the insufficiency.
• Max Hearts Override: The plugin overrides the default max hearts (set in config) to allow for the increased max hearts through prestige.

Recipe Configuration Fixes

• Custom Heart Item: The CUSTOM_HEART used in crafting recipes has been correctly referenced using the actual custom heart item created within the plugin, resolving previous errors.

Bug Fixes

• Duplicate Recipe Error: Fixed an issue where duplicate recipes were being registered, causing startup errors.
• Invalid Material Handling: Addressed an issue where invalid materials in the revive beacon recipe configuration caused errors.

Update Summary:

• Minecraft Compatibility: Updated to support Minecraft versions 1.19.4 to 1.20.6.
• Temporary Changes: Absorption hearts have been disabled temporarily due to ongoing issues with applying them correctly.
• Bug Fixes:
  • Fixed custom item issues where the wrong custom items were displayed in crafting recipes.
  • Corrected custom item issues when withdrawing items, ensuring the correct items are given to players.

Detailed Changes:

1. Minecraft Version Support:
   
   • The plugin has been updated and tested for compatibility with Minecraft versions 1.19.4 through 1.20.6. This ensures that players using newer versions of Minecraft can still enjoy the features of LifestealReborn without any compatibility issues.
2. Absorption Hearts:
   
   • Due to persistent issues with the application of absorption hearts, this feature has been disabled temporarily. We are actively working on a fix and will re-enable this feature in a future update.
3. Custom Items Fixes:
   
   • Crafting Recipes: Addressed an issue where the custom items displayed in crafting recipes were incorrect. The correct custom items should now be shown when players view and use the recipes.
   • Item Withdrawal: Fixed the problem where players were receiving incorrect custom items when using the withdraw command. Players will now receive the correct custom items as specified in the plugin configuration.

Notes for Server Admins:

• If you were relying on the absorption hearts feature, please note that it has been disabled in this version. We recommend keeping an eye out for future updates where this feature will be restored.
• Make sure to update your server to one of the supported Minecraft versions (1.19.4 to 1.20.6) to ensure full compatibility with the latest plugin features and fixes.

Thank you for using LifestealReborn! We appreciate your patience as we work to resolve these issues and improve the plugin. If you encounter any further problems or have suggestions, please let us know on our Spigot page or via our support channels.
