HiddenOre for 1.16.4

Thanks to Maxopoly and others at CivClassic, updated to Paper 1.16.4.

HiddenOre for CB 1.14.4

Thanks to Maxopoly, formal update to support 1.14.4 for HiddenOre.

HiddenOre 1.5.4 for Spigot 1.13.1

I am proud to release a feature-rich update to Spigot 1.13.1 for HiddenOre. This introduces quite a few changes on top of what was introduced in the final 1.12.2 release. Lots of config format options -- be sure to review the example configs extensively!

From README:

v1.5.4 No changes, just 1.13.1 build

v1.5.3 Some general fixes and improvements to block-level exploit tracking.

v1.5.2 Adding in CivClassic style "veins", which are basically just distributions of ore backed by persistent noise fields instead of the classic HiddenOre probability distribution functions. The outcomes are probabilistically compatible, but the generation is quite a bit different. Check out config-veins.yml for a hopefully clear example. Note that due to fundamental implementation differences, configurations made for CivClassic veins are not portable to this implementation, as their implementation refactors the configs and introduces veins as a separate flow, with only some of the tradition drop or generation capabilities; our approach to veins preserves all the existing feature-rich environment and simply implements veins as a probability distribution modifier to existing drop configs (Expanding the features in 1.5.1 for global drop config design as well).

v1.5.1 Adding in a few key QoL features for continued 1.13 support. Specifically (and see config.yml for examples and details) you can now specify drops in a global section, and pick those drops by name in the block drop configurations. You can also specify multiple blocks for whom the drop config should apply, all in the same block config. This should allow significantly improved "terseness" to configs, above and beyond what the prior subtype system allowed. Note you can mix and match global drops and local drop configs for a block, but you cannot mix single or multiple block types for a single block config.

v1.5.0 Added Minecraft 1.13 support. Note that you WILL need to REDO your config. Although your config will load as is it is unlikely to work as expected. Subtype support has been entirely removed and declarations of subtypes will be ignored. Spigot itself has renamed many materials to match their Minecraft normative style, and there is no backwards compatibility in HiddenOre. As of 1.5.0, no prior release of Minecraft is guaranteed active support, and will only be provided on a best-effort basis, if at all. IMPORTANT NOTE on config: All ItemStack serialization has been changed! There is a new v: specification. I've emulated it in the demonstration configs, but to avoid messy and unsupported prior version settings, re-export your serialized drops.

HiddenOre 1.4.2 for Spigot 1.12.2

Probably final release for Spigot 1.12, I am proud to release HiddenOre for Spigot 1.12.2 .

This includes a few new features and some fixes, especially vs the prior release.

From README:

v1.4.2 Added full multiple world support. Standard config is used as default for any world that does not have a specific config. A new section, worlds can be specified, each subsection is either the UUID or name of the world with a specific config. A single blocks subsection under the world identifier contains all the block configurations for that world. It is configured like the default, but within the world's blocks subsection. Check the configs for examples.

v1.4.1 Live use of new tracker shows its disk use is much increased. Added a configuration option to explicitly disable it. Added config example of Command "drops" and some fixes.

v1.4.0 New exploit tracker that tracks the actual blocks broken or exposed. This will fully prevent the "but I already checked that block" problem. Heuristic tracking is, for now, still active.

v1.3.2 You can now run a command on block break. If you use reward crates, could gift, or custom /give, etc -- runs as SERVER so be careful. Use %player% to inject the player name into the command, or %uuid% to inject the player's Minecraft UUID.

v1.3.1 Added a command for OPs only that generates all the drops configured. It has some quirks, but type /hiddenore generate to spawn the items.

v1.2.9 Support for dusting the caves in your map with ore based on your active config; kind of an addendum to v1.2.7's feature. Can be used to prevent the "boring caves" problem when a world is otherwise devoid of ore from the 1.2.7 feature. Don't use your final config, do use a Generate only config, and do turn off drops if generate fails.

v1.2.8 Support for altering drop chance based on 6 basic player effect states, generated by potion or beacon. Configurable by drop and biome (biome acts as override)

v1.2.7 Experimental feature to allow stripping a world of ores during the generation phase. Fully configurable per-world by name; you can set it to replace any set of materials with a single material. Also includes a new anti-bypass method to directly target that "initial return" that can still occur from generators and place-break-place-break cycles

HiddenOre for Spigot 1.10

HiddenOre

Brought to you by the developers from https://www.reddit.com/r/Devoted and https://www.github.com/DevotedMC -- check out our server at play.devotedmc.com and our website at www.devotedmc.com .

Massively configurable, low-impact plugin to allow post world generation ore balance, via either drops, or ad-hoc generation of ores into the blocks of the world on-demand. It works as a wonderful anti-xray plugin, and as a powerful incentive tool for mining.

Tons of new features over prior release.

Compiled for Spigot 1.10. No other dependencies.

Check the README for more details!

HiddenOre for CB1.9

HiddenOre stable release 1.0.9, for Spigot / Craftbukkit 1.9 but should be backwards compatible for 1.8.x as well (untested).

Allows RNG ore discovery, very useful especially with the lack of proper obfuscation in 1.9 to date.

Check the README for more details.
