This is an interim release to address the breakage caused by Multiverse v5 API changes.

Support for Multiverse pretty formatted world names in messages has been removed. It may be added back when up-to-date API documentation is released.

Note: The Minecraft sound names have been updated in the sounds.yml file. All other configuration and data files should maintain backwards compatibility with the previous version.

This release contains critical bug fixes and is recommended for immediate upgrade. Note there are changes to the language files in this release, so please backup and remove your language files to allow the plugin to install new versions, then reapply any customizations.

• Fixed bug that prevented chest protection from working
• Fixed bug that prevented chest items dropping

- fixes an issue where inventory items not placed in a death chest do not drop

Fixed an issue where using a custom language file prevented the plugin from loading.

• Moved subcommand help messages to configurable language files.

Note that language files and sound.yml have had additions / changes. It is recommended to backup and remove these files to allow the plugin to install new versions on server start or plugin reload, then reapply any customizations.

New beta version of SavageDeathChests is available for spigot/paper 1.16.x. Please report issues on github.

A new version (v.1.13.3) has been released. This is a maintenance release with no new features.

• Fixed an issue where chests could not be opened by clicking on chest if placed in location protected by other plugin
• Changed config settings for protection plugin override settings to make intent less ambiguous

This version fixes a bug that prevented opening chests by right-clicking the chest itself when placed in a location that was protected by another plugin.

The protection plugin override settings have also been changed to remove ambiguity.

(Changed check-on-place to ignore-on-place and check-on-access to ignore-on-access). Note that this reverses the logic, so previously false settings should now be true and vice versa. I believe this makes the settings intent less confusing.

Changes have been made to the config.yml file. Please backup and remove to allow plugin to install the new version of this file, then reapply settings.

This is a maintenance release that fixes two issues:

• Fixes a bug that prevented the plugin from loading when a user provided language file was used
• Fixes a bug that prevented player items from being dropped when require-chest is enabled and player does not have a chest in inventory

A new version (v1.13.1) has been uploaded. This version has been promoted from beta to release version.

The plugin will now consider the world spawn protection radius when placing a death chest, and a message added for circumstances where the spawn protection ultimately prevents a chest from being placed.

Additionally, a placeholder for 'less than one' has been added to the language files.

Please backup and remove the language files to allow new versions with these additions to be installed by the plugin.

This is a quick bug fix release. There was a bug that prevented the list command permission from working properly. This has been fixed, and a new help command has been added.

A new version (1.13.1-beta1) has been uploaded. This version brings many bug fixes, and the often requested list command. Note that the permission node for this command (deathchest.list) is not enabled by default, and needs to be explicitly set for users to be able to list their death chest locations. Administrators can also list other players chest locations by adding a username after the command, or list all players death chests by typing an asterisk (*) after the command. Anyone with the deathchest.admin permission node will have the list permissions by default.

As usual, the config.yml and language files have had updates, and should be backed up and removed to allow the plugin to install the new versions. The database schema has not changed, so existing deatchests.db files can be retained.

A new version (1.13.0-beta1) of SavageDeathChest has been published. Support for Factions and PreciousStones has been disabled until a 1.13 compatible version of these plugins is released.

All configuration files, language files and the database schema have changed. If you are upgrading from a previous version, it is recommended that you rename or delete the plugin data folder, and allow all new files to be installed.

New beta4 version with embedded libraries.

Many bug fixes since last version posted here. Beta 4 adds feature that prevents placing a chest adjacent to an existing DeathChest, thereby circumventing looting protection.

If upgrading, remember to backup/remove config.yml and messages.yml files to allow plugin to install new versions, then reapply changes.

Fixed a fatal exception caused by other plugins that use a fake chest inventory as a custom gui.

A couple of minor bug fixes, and a missing config option in the previous release. Backup and remove the config.yml file so the plugin will generate a new one, or add the following lines to the configuration file manually:

# prevent placing items in death chests
prevent-item-placement: true

This option makes death chests take only, refusing to allow players to place items in them.
