Version 26.5.1-MC1.21.x

[+] Re-added support for MC 1.21.x

The previous release was built with Java 25 to support MC 26.1.2, which dropped compatibility with MC 1.21.x. This build is compiled with Java 21 and includes all features from the previous update for Paper 1.21.11.

Note: This is the final release for MC 1.21.x. Don't download this version if you want to use it on MC 26.1.x. Download the previous 26.5.1 version of this plugin.

Version 26.5.1

[+] Added support for 26.1.2
[+] Added the /troll blacklist <command> command, which disables and hides a command from all relevant troll GUIs. Use /troll blacklist to view all currently blacklisted commands. To remove a command from the blacklist, either click the button next to it or run /troll blacklist <command> again.

️Critical Bug Fixes
We have addressed critical issues reported in the last version to ensure maximum stability.

• Schematic Crash Fix: Fixed a critical bug that caused the plugin to soft-crash when executing schematic-based troll commands due to an incorrect directory path.
• Config Path Resolution: Resolved an issue where certain commands attempted to access incorrect configuration paths, leading to "Missing key" errors in the chat.

⚡ Performance & Optimization
We continue to refine the code base following the major overhaul in v26.2.1.

• Command Logic Optimization: Significantly improved the internal handling of commands. Execution is now snappier and reduces overhead on the main server thread.
• Memory Usage: Slight reductions in memory footprint during idle times.

We are excited to announce the release of TrollBoss Lite! This allows server owners to test the plugin's core features for free before upgrading to the full experience.

• 18 Free Trolls: Includes classics like Freeze, Burn, Launch, Bolt, FakeOp, and more.
• Full Core Features: Lite users still get the benefits of the optimized core, Adventure API support, and Discord Logging.

️Others

• Security: Greatly improved internal code security and obfuscation.
• Library Updates: Updated internal dependencies for better stability on modern Paper versions.

Major Overhaul & Performance
This isn't just an update; it's a complete transformation. We have rewritten a massive part of the plugin's core to ensure maximum stability and performance on modern servers.

• Rewritten Core: Large portions of the codebase have been refactored and optimized for better maintainability and speed.
• Performance Boost: Significant optimizations across the board to ensure the plugin runs smoother than ever, even with many players online.
• Database Migration: Moved from slow YAML files to a high-performance SQLite database for handling player statistics. No more lag when tracking your trolls!

Ultimate Customization (Adventure API)
We believe in giving you full control. TrollBossPlus now fully supports the Adventure API, allowing for stunning visual effects in chat and GUIs.

• Full Localization: Every single text message, item name, and GUI title is now 100% translatable and customizable.
• MiniMessage Support: Use modern color gradients, hex colors, and advanced formatting tags (like <rainbow>, <gradient>, <click>) in all language files.
• New Language: Added full support for Italian (IT)! (Now supporting EN, DE, FR, ES, IT).

Advanced Discord Integration
The Discord logging feature has been rebuilt from the ground up to be more robust and customizable.

• Fully Customizable Webhooks: You can now edit the content, colors, titles, and descriptions of all Discord embeds directly in the language files.
• Robust Error Handling: The plugin now intelligently handles invalid URLs or missing avatars without crashing or spamming errors. It silently falls back to defaults if your config isn't perfect.
• Smart Rate-Limiting: Built-in protection against Discord rate limits to ensure your logs always arrive safely.

️ Security & Stability

• Java 21 Support: Full compatibility with the latest Java versions and Paper 1.21+.
• Library Management: Dependencies (like Adventure, Libby, etc.) are now handled more efficiently.

Bug Fixes & Improvements

• Fixed a few issues with Discord Webhooks.
• Improved GUI responsiveness and layout.
• And countless other small fixes and polish!
