PlotSquared v7.0.0 Release Candidate 1

This is the first release candidate of PlotSquared v7.
If you are using FAWE, download it from https://ci.athion.net/job/FastAsyncWorldEdit-Pull-Requests/view/change-requests/job/PR-2075/ when updating your test server.

Notable changes for end users:

This is a release candidate for 7.0.0, this is not the final version of 7.0.0. Things may be subject to change. Make sure to test this release candidate on your test server and report any issues found on GitHub.

This major release doesn't include many notable changes for end users, as it focuses on upgrading MiniMessage for plugin developers.
However, a few long-term issues with messages have been ironed out by the MiniMessage update.
For example, `/plot help all` is now clickable.

Additionally, the release candidate adds support for 1.20 and 1.20.1

If you find something not working, compared to v6, please file an issue on the issue tracker: https://github.com/IntellectualSites/PlotSquared/issues/new/choose

Notable changes for developers
PlotSquared v7 makes use of the latest MiniMessage features and syntax. For more information, check the MiniMessage docs: https://docs.advntr.dev/minimessage/format.html
In v7, various, previously deprecated methods, have been removed in favor of successors, if available.
We published the following resources to provide additional information about the methods changed, to make the upgrade as easy as possible for plugin developers:
- Javadocs: https://intellectualsites.github.io/plotsquared-javadocs/
- An aggregated overview of all API classes and methods, that changed between v6 and v7: https://intellectualsites.github.io/plotsquared-diff/. Select the module required.
- Snapshots are available on ` https://s01.oss.sonatype.org/`. The distribution coordinates changed from `com.PlotSquared` to `com.intellectualsites.plotsquared`. Additionally, package names are now lowercased.

This is the last release of the v6. The next major version, v7, stay tuned!

Fixes:

We advice every WorldEdit user to update to 6.6.1.
Fawe users were not affected by this issue.

Click here for the full changelog: https://github.com/IntellectualSites/PlotSquared/releases/tag/6.6.1

Major features and improvements

- Implement extended world heights from Y-64 to Y319

The options `max_gen_height` and `min_gen_height` have been added to the worlds.yml under `world:` to set the new generation heights.
If you're upgrading from a previous version that didn't have these values, you initially should visit `max_height` and `min_height` in the same file and align them with the new generation heights, to utilize the new heights, if desired.

If the former values are setup to utilize thew new heights, (re)generating chunks, for example during a plot clear, does expand the wall and the floor blocks. However, that is not needed and players can simply break through the floor to build below Y0.

A note for FAWE users: Fawe needs updating to adapt the changes from this release. Plot clearing and similar hook-operations cannot perform outside Y0 -> 256 yet.
Feel free to join our discord server ( https://discord.gg/intellectualsites) to receive a notification once Fawe is updated.

API Note: Our sunset maven repository (mvn.intellectualsites.com) is scheduled to be deactivated on January the 24th.
PlotSquared does deploy to the central repository, but not all of our own dependencies were transferred yet, which is done by now.
Make sure to remove it from your build instructions to prevent errors when compiling your addons.

Full changelog: https://github.com/IntellectualSites/PlotSquared/releases/tag/6.1.3

Changes:

Fixes:
- Fix improper returning when checking unlink permission

Fixes:
- Fixed incorrectly mapped values for setting chunk-save requirement status for single worlds

Fixes:

Changes:
- Add quicker method for getting chunks (not requiring a slow stream done by CB); they're "handled much better by minecraft as of 1.14" (not really) meaning the required methods for testing if a chunk is allowed to be unloaded is not present. We instead must now rely on the ChunkUnloadEvent for setting if a chunk should be saved.

This is a public beta release of PlotSquared v6.0.0, the next major release version of PlotSquared. Keeping it short, we already wrote down a changelog going in detail about the changes, additions and issues it addresses, you can find it here.
Read over over it with caution, you may need to adjust a few things beforehand to guarantee a flawless transition, depending on your setup. If not stated elsewise, PlotSquared v6 handles the conversion for you.
As this is still a beta release, taking frequent backups is advised alongside reporting issues to the issue tracker so they can be addressed.
Like Minecraft itself, PlotSquared now requires a minimum Java version of 16 as well. If you didn't update/install Java 16 yet and are unsure how to do that, checkout this guide, it covers the most reputable OSs and host services.

This version contains the following changes:

Additions:

• The config option "enabled-components.
  disable-nashorn-script-engine" has been added.
  This is a temporary solution allowing PlotSquared v5 to work on Java versions 15 onwards in regards of 1.17 requiring Java 16.
  Enabling this config option sacrifices the "/plot debugexec" command and using javascript for prices in the worlds.yml
  PlotSquared v6, the next major release version, got this addressed properly without sacrifices. v6 will also be the version containing the 1.17 update.
  And no, you don't need to purchase PlotSquared again. This is a major update for the end user but following semantic versioning on our end.

This version contains the following changes:

Additions:

• Added a couple of new metrics to bStats.

Fixes:

• Fixed `java.lang.NoSuchFieldException: mustSave` on startup when server version >= 1.13.2
• Fixed `teleport.per-world-visit` from settings.yml
• Fixed [PS-188]

Changelog: https://wiki.intellectualsites.com/en/plotsquared/changelog/5-13-3

Before starting with the actual changelog, I'd like to leave a few notes about the future of PlotSquared and future updates.

Currently we are working on a new messaging system supporting hexadecimal/rgb color codes, color gradients and a variety of other improvements, you can read move about it here.
In the past we used GitHub to manage translations via pull requests but we switched to Crowdin Enterprise a few months ago, since it is easier to use for people who are not versed with git applications but want to help us translating PlotSquared into their language.

The following link leads to our Crowdin page: https://intellectualsites.crowdin.com/plotsquared
I've added a few languages as default. If a language is missing you would like to translate PlotSquared to, let us know in #off-topic and I will add it.
Please note: Values inside tags ( <value>, <command>, <gray>, etc.) are replaced with strings when used ingame. E.g. <prefix><gray>Use <command> <<list>></gray> will change to [P2] Use /plot list <mine> when you are using PlotSquared.
So make sure to put them on a spot matching your translation language. Do not change anything inside them, they have to remain in english/the default. Thanks for your support! And thanks to the few people who are already translating PlotSquared into their languages when I never shared a link to our crowdin.

We recommend using the latest version of Paper, as it includes several performance enhancements over Spigot. PlotSquared v5.13+ includes significant improvements which are only effective on Paper, most notably asynchronous chunk loading which reduces lag spikes during player teleports.


This version contains the following changes:

Fixes:
- Fixed an issue where PlotSquared would try to convert databases created in v5 from v4 to v5, which obviously fails, because they never used v4.
- Fixed an OfflinePlayerUtil breakaged caused by NMS Changes
- Fixed an issue where visiting merged plots with multiple owners didn't work properly.
- Fixed `/plot trust` and `/plot add` not displaying a message when trying to add or trust the plot owner.
- Fixed block ignition not being denied by default [PS-114]
- Fixed signs not being generated by default


Additions:
- Added 1.16.2 support.
If you want to use 1.16.2, use a WorldEdit build from here: https://builds.enginehub.org/job/worldedit?branch=master
If you are using FAWE, update your FAWE build from here: https://ci.athion.net/job/FastAsyncWorldEdit-1.16/
- Allow teleporting to merged plots with multiple owners using `/plot home`
