We've decided that because we have no longer time to support Quake, the better choice we could take to make the project continue (hopefully) is to make it open source (and therefore free).

You can find it's source code hosted here:
https://github.com/upperlevel/quakecraft

Thank to all the people that supported it over the years!

Previously the plugin would continue to run even when no economy plugin is present (escalating to lots of crashes and bugs later in the game). This is now prevented.

Fixes:

• A newly created sign is joinable without restarting the server.
• Fix the right-click issue when clicking a join sign with the leave-bed slot selected. Sometimes it causes the player to join and quit instantly (in the < 2.0 versions this was already fixed).
• Preload arena's chunks in order to make player join faster.
• Add Quake compatibility with Multiverse-Core world loading.

Features:

• Respawn cooldown, after respawning the players will be invincible for a certain amount of time.
• The shot is now fully configurable: speed, radius, max distance...

How to upgrade:
If coming from Quake 2.x less than 2.1.2 you only need to replace Quake.jar and the config.yml.

• %quake_player_kd_ratio%
• %quake_player_win_ratio%
• /q stats updated with the above placeholders.
• kills-to-win is now per arena and won't be loaded from config.yml.
• Fix issue with join-signs.

README - How to update from Quake 2.0 to Quake 2.1:

1. Open config.yml
2. Search for "stats:" using Ctrl+F or whatever
   - "&e- K/D ratio: &7%kd_ratio%"
   - "&e- Win/lost ratio: &7%win_ratio%"
   Add these two lines at the end of the message, make sure they're aligned with the others.
3. Search for "kills-to-win:" and remove the line.

By default all of your old arenas will have kills-to-win set to 20, if you want to customize it, issue the following commands:

• /q teleport <arena>
• /q setkillstowin <kills-to-win>

Huge update to Quake that lists:

• Bungee-mode support.
• SQLite, MySQL and MariaDB support.
• New powerups (invisiblity, dash-boost and more are coming).
• PlaceholderAPI support that leads eventually to LeaderHeads support.
• Spectator mode.
• Published DB schema in order for webdev to interface with it.
• Fix many issues regarding old Quake versions and optimized many aspects of the code.
  
• Supporting the new version of Uppercore (2.0) that now lives within the hosting plugin.

Fix a small issue originated in the last version.

In the previous versions arenas could be loaded before world management plugins, thus invalid positions may be loaded (because their worlds weren't loaded).
The bug has been fixed by loading the arenas one tick later Quake's enabling. When all other plugins are already loaded.

A change in the PalceholderAPI 2.6.0 casued bugs in the placeholder system.
Please use only the latest PlaceholderAPI versions as some older ones aren't supported.

When someone clicked the join-sign with the same slot as the lobby exit slot, sometimes, the player could get thrown out immediately.
A cooldown has been added to prevent this behaviour.

This is just a hotfix of the old quake, the real new version is coming soon
