V2.9.6 Release (In progress)

Change Log

New features (see the new config for new settings)

• Players can now have full control over their island guard settings via the /is settings menu. Access is governed by permissions: askyblock.settings.* for all access, askyblock.settings.allowPvP, etc. for individual settings. See config.yml for a list. Includes island-wide warning of PvP changes, warning when warping and looking at warp signs if PvP is allowed and cool down timer to prevent quick toggling.
• Allow/deny pressure plate use for island visitors or at spawn. Default is allowed.
• Allow/deny visitor horse riding on islands or at spawn. Default is not allowed.
• Allow/deny access to horse inventories if visitor horse riding is allowed. Default is not allowed.
• Added allow/deny spawn item drop/pickup.
• Allow/deny pistons from pushing blocks outside of the island protection area. Default is allowed. This "glitch" was been tolerated in the past because it enabled players to build bridges, but some admins wanted it locked down.
• Max islands - limits the maximum number of islands that can be made. Refuses new islands if max is met. Players with islands can still reset.
• Added option to limit Tile Entities (also called Block Entities) on islands because they can cause lag. These are blocks like hoppers, dispensers and item frames. This replaces the previous hopper setting (which still works) with a more general config. Hopefully 1.9 will fix the entity lag issue!
• Added option to block all commands when falling via *. Previously, each command had to be named individually.
• Improved schematic pasting: written books with colored text can be included in chests! Pasting should also be faster for some schematics. Added more comments in the config on schematic options.
• Korean translation updated
• Added Dutch locale
• /asadmin topten made async - will regenerate the topten list if it is corrupted or missing.
• New permissions: askyblock.island.go - required to use the /island go command. Players with askyblock.mod.excludetopten permission will be excluded from Top Ten list.
• Admin tp and tpnether changed so they try to teleport to player's home location first and then to a generic safe location.

Bug Fixes

• [Major] Wall Sign warps were lost when server was restarted.
• [Major] Experience for first completion of a challenge was not given to players. Recurring experience was given.
• [Minor] Simplified Chinese translation changed
• [Minor] Team spy permission was incorrect so Mods could not use it. It should be askyblock.mod.spy.
