What's New?

This update adds a much more flexible animation system designed to make ProgressStructure easier to customize and more compatible across Minecraft versions.

New Features Added

• Configurable particle effects
  All animation particles can now be edited directly from config.yml.
  
• Cross-version particle aliases
  Particles can now use fallback names, for example:
  ["BLOCK_CRACK", "BLOCK_CRUMBLE", "BLOCK"]
  The plugin will automatically use the first particle name supported by the server version.
  
• Simple legacy animation mode
  A new optional animation mode was added that does not use Display entities such as BlockDisplay or ItemDisplay.
  
• Better support for older versions
  The simple legacy animation is useful for servers where Display entities are not available or should be avoided.
  
• Animation profiles system
  Admins can now create custom animation profiles in config.yml.
  
• Event-based animation customization
  Profiles can react to events like:
  animation-start, remove-block, build-block, remove-complete, animation-finish, and more.
  
• Custom actions per animation event
  Each animation event can run actions such as broadcasts, console commands, titles, delays, sounds, and particles.
  
• Performance control
  Block events support every-blocks, so effects can run every X blocks instead of every single block.
  
• English configuration comments
  The new configuration sections are documented in English so external users can understand what each option does.

Compatibility Improvements

• Improved compatibility with Minecraft/Paper 1.20.x.
• Improved compatibility with Minecraft/Paper 1.21.x.
• Improved compatibility with Minecraft/Paper 26.1.x.
• Particles are no longer locked to hardcoded old Bukkit names.
• Legacy simple animation can be enabled for servers that cannot use Display entity animations.
