    New in this release

    A small follow-up patch with one defensive hardening, one inventory-loss fix, and CraftEngine API compatibility.

    • 🔺 Island.setRange no longer silently corrupts island data. A misbehaving third-party addon was calling setRange with a value that disagreed with the game mode's configured distance-between-islands. On the next restart, BentoBox refused to load the affected islands and panic-disabled with Island distance mismatch, taking the whole island system offline. setRange now refuses any value that disagrees with the configured distance (and logs the calling stack frame), unless the game mode opts out via GameModeAddon.isEnforceEqualRanges() == false — the supported path for claim-resizing game modes like StrangerRealms.
    • 🐛 Team-accept no longer eats inventories under InvSwitcher. Players who accepted a team invite while standing in a non-BentoBox world (with island.reset.on-join.inventory: true — Boxed and AOneBlock ship with this) could return to that world to find their items gone. The on-join inventory/XP/health/hunger/money resets now run after the teleport into the island world completes, so InvSwitcher (and similar plugins) save the player's real inventory under the old world before the reset fires. Fixes the case reported against AOneBlock 1.25.0 / Boxed 3.3.0 / InvSwitcher 1.17.1.
    • 🐛 CraftEngine 26.5+ compatibility. CraftEngineHook.getItemStack(id) was using the pre-rewrite CustomItem<ItemStack> API and broke on recent CraftEngine releases. The hook now uses BukkitItemDefinition#buildBukkitItem() and works against CraftEngine 26.5.

    🔺 Island.setRange contract change. setRange was previously a plain setter. It now refuses values that would put the stored range out of sync with the game mode's configured distance (which would cause Island distance mismatch on the next load) and logs a warning naming the caller. Game modes that legitimately resize claims continue to work — they already override GameModeAddon.isEnforceEqualRanges() to return false. If you're maintaining an addon and you see warnings like Refusing Island.setRange(...) in the log, the warning identifies the exact caller — that's the call you need to look at.

    release17 мая 2026 г.

    New in this release

    A targeted patch for /bbox admin delete.

    • 🔺 Admin delete actually deletes the island now. Not instantly, but when the plugin runs its housekeeping or pure runs. Note that if there are live islands in the same region file, then it will remain in the deleted state until the region is clear. If you really need to delete the blocks, then use WorldEdit or manually remove them. In the next full release we'll add a cut to the Blueprint command to remove blocks.
    • 🔺 Seed worlds (<world>/bentobox) are no longer created. The seed-world infrastructure (createSeedWorlds, removeSeedWorlds, the in-memory copies, the on-disk folders) is gone. Any stale <world>/bentobox folders left over from earlier versions are safe to delete manually. These were not doing anything recently except taking up space.
    • 🔺 API: GameModeAddon#isUsesNewChunkGeneration() is deprecated for removal. Existing addons that override it keep working (the value is simply ignored) but will see a deprecation warning. Remove the override at your convenience.

    Internal cleanup that ships with the fix:

    • Removed DeleteIslandChunks, IslandChunkDeletionManager, CopyWorldRegenerator, the bentobox-deleteIsland MultiLib subscriber, and the IslandDeletion DB recovery loader.
    • WorldRegenerator slimmed to just regenerateChunk(Chunk); WorldRegeneratorImpl is now a small Bukkit-only delegate to World#regenerateChunk(int, int) used by CleanSuperFlatListener.
    • IslandDeletionManager#inDeletion(Location) now queries live island state (Island#isDeletable()) instead of a side-channel HashSet, so it can never drift out of sync.

    Compatibility

    ✔️ Paper Minecraft 1.21.5 – 26.1.2 ✔️ Java 21+

    3. Replace the BentoBox jar with this one.
    4. Restart the server.
    5. (Optional) Delete any stale <world>/bentobox folders in your world container — they are no longer used.
    6. You should be good to go!

    🔺 Reap timing. When /bbox admin delete finishes, the player's blocks are still on disk; the island is just marked deletad. The actual region files come out on the next housekeeping sweep (default: 24 h). If you need immediate cleanup, run /bbox admin purge deleted after the delete. But again, it will only be removed if the region files are clear.

    Release Highlights

    • ⚙️🔡🔺 Per-world team disable + admin team disbandall — Game modes can now opt out of the team subsystem entirely. Trust and coop remain available as the supported alternative, and a new admin command strips pre-existing members from every island in one pass.
    • 🔺 Setowner cap enforcement — Transferring island ownership now respects the recipient's concurrent-islands cap and island.number.<n> permission, closing a clean bypass that previously allowed admins (and team setowner) to push players over their limit.
    • 🐛 Safe respawn fallbackISLAND_RESPAWN no longer drops players at world spawn (0,0) when their home block has been removed; it now walks a fallback chain ending in SafeSpotTeleport to find a real safe spot on the island.
    • 🐛 Offline growth: vines & treesOFFLINE_GROWTH now correctly blocks every spreading plant (vines, weeping vines, etc.) and every tree growing from a sapling — not just kelp and bamboo.
    • 🐛 Dynmap marker Y range — Area/polygon markers now use the world's full min/max height instead of always rendering at y=64.
    • CraftEngine hook helpersgetItemStack(id) and getItemId(item) let addons render and recognise CraftEngine custom items without depending on CraftEngine directly.

    2. Stop the server.
    3. Replace the BentoBox jar with this one.
    4. Restart the server.

    6. You should be good to go!

    ⚙️🔺 Teams-disabled is opt-in per game mode. A new WorldSettings#isTeamsDisabled() method (default false) lets a game mode disable team commands in its world. Existing servers see no behaviour change unless a game mode adopts the setting. Trust and coop relationships are intentionally unaffected — they're the supported alternative when teams are off.

    🔺 Setowner cap is now enforced. Both /island team setowner and /[admin] team setowner refuse the transfer if the recipient is already at their concurrent-islands cap. Previously, admin setowner only emitted a warning after the bypass and /island team setowner had no check at all. Adjust the recipient's permission first if you really intend to allow more islands.

    🔡 Locale changes: New keys for commands.admin.team.disbandall.{description,confirmation,success}, commands.island.team.errors.teams-disabled, commands.admin.team.setowner.errors.at-max, and an updated commands.admin.team.kick.cannot-kick-owner message that points admins to setowner/disband. The dead commands.admin.team.kick.success-all key has been removed. All 22 bundled translations are in sync.

    New Features

    ⚙️🔡🔺 Per-world Team Disable + admin team disbandall

    [PR #2975] Closes #2965

    A new WorldSettings#isTeamsDisabled() (default false) lets a game mode opt out of the team subsystem on a per-world basis. When enabled, the action commands that add, remove or reorganise team members refuse to run with commands.island.team.errors.teams-disabled:

    • /island team invite and invite accept (TEAM invitations only — COOP and TRUST invitations remain accepted)
    • /island team kick, leave, promote, demote, setowner
    • /[admin] team add

    Read-only commands (/island team panel, info, invites, invite reject), trust/coop relationships (trust, coop, untrust, uncoop), and admin commands that operate on existing teams (kick, disband, disbandall, setowner, fix, maxsize) all remain available.

    A new admin command /[admin] team disbandall strips every member and sub-owner from every island in the current world in one confirmable pass. Trusted and coop players are intentionally untouched. Use it once after flipping isTeamsDisabled on to clean up pre-existing teams.

    🔌 CraftEngine Hook Helpers

    [PR #2970] [PR #2973]

    Two new helpers on CraftEngineHook, mirroring the equivalents on OraxenHook and ItemsAdderHook:

    • getItemStack(String id) returns an Optional<ItemStack> for the registered CraftEngine custom item — useful for rendering the correct icon and display name in panels and GUIs.
    • getItemId(ItemStack item) returns the namespaced ID of a CraftEngine custom item (or null) — useful for command handlers (e.g. Level addon's /is value hand) that need to recognise a held custom item.

    Both helpers let addons interoperate with CraftEngine without compiling against it directly.


    Bug Fixes

    🔺 Setowner Bypassed concurrent-islands Cap

    [PR #2966] Fixes #2908

    AdminTeamSetownerCommand previously allowed transfers to a player who already owned their maximum allowed concurrent islands and only emitted a warning afterwards; IslandTeamSetownerCommand had no check at all. Both now compute the recipient's current concurrent-islands count and permission-aware cap in canExecute and refuse the transfer when at or above the limit. The user path uses the existing commands.island.team.setowner.errors.at-max locale entry; the admin path uses a new commands.admin.team.setowner.errors.at-max that includes the count and limit.

    ISLAND_RESPAWN Sent Players to 0,0 When Home Was Unsafe

    [PR #2962]

    When ISLAND_RESPAWN was enabled and the player's home block had been removed, isSafeLocation() returned false and the respawn fell through to world spawn. IslandRespawnListener now walks a fallback chain — try one block above the home (covers slabs/stairs), then a quick sync check around the island protection center, then anchor the respawn at the protection center and schedule SafeSpotTeleport on the next tick to find a real safe spot. cancelIfFail(true) ensures the player isn't yanked elsewhere if the comprehensive scan also fails.

    OFFLINE_GROWTH: Vines and Trees from Saplings Were Ignored

    [PR #2968]

    OFFLINE_GROWTH previously only blocked kelp, bamboo and bamboo saplings on BlockSpreadEvent — vines, cave vines, twisting/weeping vines and any other spreading plant slipped through. Trees and mushrooms growing from a sapling didn't fire BlockGrowEvent at all, so they were never blocked. The listener now uses the source block location for BlockSpreadEvent (so plants growing outward from an island are correctly attributed) and adds a StructureGrowEvent handler for trees/mushrooms.

    Admin team kick on Multi-island Players

    [PR #2967]

    AdminTeamKickCommand previously iterated every team island the target was on and silently kicked them from each. With concurrent islands enabled, that's a footgun. The command now defaults to the single team island the target is on and, when there are several, requires an explicit x,y,z coordinate (with tab completion suggesting the candidates). Owner-islands are also excluded from kick targets — if the target only owns the matched island(s), the command refuses with commands.admin.team.kick.cannot-kick-owner and points the admin to setowner or disband instead.

    Dynmap Area Markers Always Rendered at y=64

    [PR #2972]

    DynmapHook was creating area markers without a configured Y range, so Dynmap rendered them at the default y=64 regardless of the actual world height. Both setMarker and the public addPolygonMarker now call area.setRangeY(world.getMaxHeight(), world.getMinHeight()) so markers cover the full vertical extent of the world.


    Other Improvements

    • Regression test for the island home location bug fix from 3.15.0 [PR #2969]
    • WorldSettings#isTeamsDisabled() Javadoc rewritten with explicit lists of which commands are blocked vs. unaffected

    New Features

    ⚙️🔺 Island Delete System Overhaul

    [PR #2933] [PR #2949]

    The system has been fundamentally redesigned for reliability and safety. Island resets in non-void worlds now always soft-delete (setting a deletable flag) rather than immediately destroying chunks. A new HousekeepingManager runs on a configurable schedule to sweep region files for soft-deleted islands and free disk space asynchronously.

    IMPORTANT: The server can store a lot of the world chunks in RAM and so the Housekeeping or Purging will not appear to do anything until you restart the server. Please do not report that an island is not deleting until you have restarted the server.

    The new /purge <days> command now identifies and deletes region files in one step — the previous behaviour only set the deletable flag in the database, leaving region files on disk until a separate /purge regions run. The new /purge deleted subcommand reaps region files for any island already flagged as deletable, regardless of age. /purge unowned now flags orphaned islands and prompts the admin to run /purge deleted afterwards. Again, the changes will not be seen in-game until server restart.

    For game modes that use non-void world generation (Boxed, AcidIsland, CaveBlock, etc.), AdminDeleteCommand now soft-deletes and defers physical cleanup; simple void/overworld game modes (AOneBlock, BSkyBlock, etc.) keep the existing DeleteIslandChunks path. Island database rows are removed at server shutdown after region files are confirmed gone, ensuring crash-safe recovery.

    The keep-previous-island-on-reset config setting has been removed — all resets now soft-delete by default.

    💎 Custom Blueprint Bundle Icons

    [PR #2941] Closes #2940

    The "icon" field in blueprint bundle JSON files now accepts three formats:

    • Plain material name (existing): "icon": "DIAMOND"
    • Vanilla namespaced material (new): "icon": "minecraft:diamond"
    • Custom item model key (new): "icon": "myserver:island_tropical"

    Custom model keys are applied to a PAPER base item using ItemMeta.setItemModel(), allowing resource-pack-defined icons to appear on island selection panels. A new getIconItemStack() API method returns the full ItemStack with model data applied; the existing getIcon() method returning Material remains unchanged for addon compatibility.


    Bug Fixes

    InvincibleVisitors: XP Orbs Blocked from Tracking Visitors

    [PR #2948]

    InvincibleVisitorsListener cancelled EntityTargetLivingEntityEvent for any entity targeting a visitor — including XP orbs. Since XP orbs use this event to home in on players, visitors could never pick up XP even when the EXPERIENCE_PICKUP flag allowed it. The fix skips cancellation when the entity is an ExperienceOrb; the flag listener remains responsible for controlling whether pickup is actually granted.

    BungeeCord Hex Colour Not Recognised in Legacy Conversion

    BungeeCords &#RRGGBB hex colour format was not being recognised in legacyToMiniMessage, causing hex colours from BungeeCord-formatted strings to fall through as literal text. The parser now handles this format correctly.

    Spurious defaultRank Warnings for PVP Setting Flags

    PVP-related setting flags were triggering incorrect defaultRank warning log messages on startup. These warnings were harmless but noisy; the condition is now correctly filtered.

    FAQ: Island Delete & Purge for Admins

    Island Delete

    Q: I ran /bbox admin delete <player> but the island is still visible. Why?

    It depends on your game mode. For game modes that use custom chunk generation — Boxed, AcidIsland, CaveBlock, and similar — the island is soft-deleted: it is marked as deletable in the database but its chunks remain on disk. The actual .mca region files are cleaned up later by the HousekeepingManager (if enabled) or when you run /purge deleted. Even after the files are deleted, Papers in-memory chunk cache means the island may still appear in-game until the next server restart. This is normal — do not report the island as not deleting until you have restarted.

    Q: Why soft-delete instead of immediately removing chunks?

    For worlds with non-trivial terrain (AcidIslands ocean, Boxeds generated box, CaveBlocks cave world), chunk regeneration is slow and expensive. Soft-delete defers the work safely: the island is immediately invisible to the gameplay systems (it can no longer be claimed or teleported to), and disk cleanup happens when the server has breathing room. It also means a crash before cleanup leaves data intact — the island stays deletable and is picked up by the next purge cycle.

    Q: My game mode (BSkyBlock, AOneBlock) deletes island chunks immediately. Why is it different?

    Void-world game modes use the DeleteIslandChunks / WorldRegenerator path, which regenerates the island area back to void immediately. Since there is no complex terrain to preserve, this is fast and safe. Soft-delete was not needed.

    Q: Can I recover a soft-deleted island before the region files are reaped?

    Yes — if the region files have not yet been deleted, you can clear the deletable flag via the database or an admin command and the island will be restored. Once the region files are gone, however, only a backup can save it. Take backups before mass deletes.


    Purge

    Q: What does /purge <days> do exactly?

    It scans every .mca region file in the current game modes world (overworld, and nether/end if island-nether/end is enabled) that is older than <days> days. It then filters out:

    • regions containing the spawn island
    • regions containing purge-protected islands (/purge protect)
    • regions containing islands whose owner logged in within <days> days
    • regions containing islands above the configured Level addon threshold (if installed)

    The remaining regions are shown in the server log with a summary, and you are asked to type confirm before anything is deleted.

    Q: What is the difference between /purge <days> and /purge deleted?

    CommandFilterWhat it deletes
    /purge <days>Region files older than N days, minus active/protected islands.mca files (plus player data for absent players)
    /purge deletedIslands flagged deletable in the DB (from resets, soft-deletes).mca files for those islands regions

    Use /purge <days> for periodic housekeeping of abandoned islands. Use /purge deleted to immediately reap region files for islands that have already been marked for deletion (e.g. after a batch of /is reset or /admin delete operations).

    Q: How do I delete orphaned (unowned) islands?

    Run /purge unowned. This flags every unowned, non-protected, non-spawn island in the world as deletable (with confirmation). Then run /purge deleted to reap their region files. Restart the server to see the changes.

    Q: I ran the purge but the island chunks are still visible in-game. What happened?

    Paper caches chunk data in RAM. The .mca files have been deleted from disk, but the cache still has them until the server shuts down cleanly. Restart the server — on the next start, Paper will find no region file and treat those chunks as empty/void. This is expected behaviour, not a bug.

    Q: What is the HousekeepingManager and how do I configure it?

    HousekeepingManager is an automated background task that runs the purge on a schedule without admin intervention. It has two independent cycles:

    • Age sweep — runs every interval-days days and behaves like /purge <days> using the configured region-age-days value.
    • Deleted sweep — runs every deleted-interval-hours hours and behaves like /purge deleted, reaping region files for any island already flagged deletable.

    Both cycles are disabled by default (housekeeping.enabled: false). Enable and configure them in your BentoBox config.yml under the housekeeping section.

    Q: What does /purge protect do, and when should I use it?

    It marks an island as purge-protected, permanently exempting it from all purge operations regardless of owner activity or region file age. Use it for community builds, showcase islands, or any island you never want auto-cleaned.

    Q: What is /purge age-regions?

    This is a developer/testing utility that artificially ages the per-chunk timestamps inside .mca files so they become candidates for /purge <days> without waiting real time. It is not intended for production use — it exists to make testing the purge pipeline practical.

    3.14.2 Bug Fixes

    Fix hex colour codes broken by BungeeCord round-trip

    [d3a04e25] Fixes #2943

    The &#RRGGBB hex colour format stopped working in 3.14.1. The root cause was a double-conversion: translateColorCodes serialises hex colours to the BungeeCord §x§R§R§G§G§B§B repeated-character format, but legacyToMiniMessage (called when rendering the message) didn't recognise that format — so &x was silently dropped and each following &R digit was misread as a named colour code (&2 → dark green, &3 → dark aqua, …), producing completely wrong colours. Fixed by normalising the BungeeCord format back to &#RRGGBB before processing.

    🔡 Accept underscore locale filenames instead of ignoring them

    [d2dd28e2]

    Locale files named with underscores (e.g. pt_BR.yml, en_US.yml) are not valid BCP-47 language tags and were silently ignored since 3.14.0, causing those translations to go missing. BentoBox now automatically renames them to the correct hyphen form (pt-BR.yml) on startup and logs a warning. If a correctly-named file already exists, the underscore copy is reported as a duplicate and skipped.

    Fix spurious "defaultRank below minimumRank" warnings

    [bdc20675]

    SETTING and WORLD_SETTING flags (such as the PVP flag) were incorrectly triggering a startup warning about defaultRank being below minimumRank. These flag types legitimately use -1 as a disabled state (Island.isAllowed treats >= 0 as enabled), so the rank-clamping check now only applies to PROTECTION flags.

    3.14.1 Bug Fixes

    Fix </green> leaking as literal text in flag setting tooltips

    [594aaf04]

    User.convertToLegacy was splitting mixed MiniMessage/legacy strings on \n before parsing, so a multi-line tag span like <green>foo\nbar</green> was processed as two independent lines — the second line had a closing tag with no opening, and MiniMessage rendered </green> as literal text in the lore. The whole string is now parsed as a single unit so the tag span stays balanced. The now-unnecessary <green>...</green> wrapper around [description] in the flag description/menu/setting layouts has also been dropped from every bundled locale file.

    Fix lava-tip hologram showing raw <orange> MiniMessage tags

    [2bba02bb]

    The 3.14.0 obsidian-scooping lava-tip locale entry used <orange>, which is not a valid MiniMessage named colour — Minecraft's named-colour set tops out at <gold>. MiniMessage left the unknown tag as literal text, so the hologram rendered <orange>Scoop this up with a bucket</orange> verbatim. Switched to <gold> to match the Minecraft colour palette and the rest of the locale conventions.

    Flag.Builder minimumRank API

    [PR #2936]

    New Flag.Builder.minimumRank(int) lets addons declare the lowest rank that may be selected for a PROTECTION flag (defaults to VISITOR_RANK, fully backwards-compatible). The auto-assigned CycleClick listener is constructed with the configured minimum so the settings-panel click-cycle won't let players select ranks below it. build() clamps defaultRank up to minimumRank (with a logged warning) so a misconfigured flag still has a selectable default. Adds Flag.getMinimumRank() and Flag.getClickHandler() getters. Binary-compatible — additive only.

    Internal: expanded test coverage

    Several internal subsystems received substantial test-coverage improvements (no behaviour change):

    • IslandsManager (51% → 64.6%)
    • LocalesManager (40% → 49.2%)
    • YamlDatabaseHandler (13% → 72%)
    • AddonsManager (26% → 46%)
    • BlueprintsManager, BlueprintClipboard, SafeSpotTeleport, WebManager, Util, ItemParser

    Documentation: CLAUDE.md now documents the MiniMessage ↔ legacy round-trip pitfalls that produced the two bugs above.

    A new chunk pre-generation system can warm island area chunks in the background, eliminating lag when players first visit. Disabled by default in config.yml.

    💡 Obsidian Scooping Lava Tip Hologram — PR #2915

    When scoopable obsidian forms (lava + water on an island), a small floating hologram now appears above the block to teach players they can pick it up. Removed when scooped or after a configurable duration. (See 3.14.1 fix above for the <orange> tag bug.)

    🔡 Flag State Placeholders — PR #2913

    New PlaceholderAPI placeholders expose the enabled/disabled state of every protection, setting, and world setting flag.

    [PR #2911]

    Blueprints have been switched from a zipped binary .blu format to plain JSON .blueprint files. This makes blueprints human-readable, diffable, and easy to edit in any text editor. Existing .blu files are detected and loaded automatically — no migration step required. New blueprint saves use the .blueprint extension.

    Includes filename length validation to guard against excessively long blueprint names on disk.

    ⚙️ Island Defaults Tab in Admin Settings GUI

    [PR #2912]

    A new "Island Defaults" tab has been added to the Admin Settings panel. This lets admins view and modify the default protection flag settings for new islands directly through the GUI, without needing to edit configuration files manually.

    🔡 Message Delivery Type Tags

    [PR #2910]

    Locale strings now support delivery type tags that control how messages are shown to players:

    • [actionbar] — display as an action bar message
    • [title] — display as a title
    • [subtitle] — display as a subtitle
    • [sound:name:volume:pitch] — play a sound alongside the message

    Tags are placed at the start of locale values and are stripped before rendering the text content.

    ⚡ Chunk Pre-Generation Manager

    [Commits]

    A new chunk pre-generation system can warm island area chunks in the background, eliminating lag when players first visit. The system defers work until after server load and runs asynchronously to avoid main-thread stalls. Disabled by default in config.yml — enable it if your server has the resources.

    💡 Obsidian Scooping Lava Tip Hologram

    [PR #2915]

    When scoopable obsidian forms (lava + water on an island), a small floating hologram now appears above the block to teach players they can pick it up. The hologram is removed immediately when the obsidian is scooped, or after a configurable duration.

    🔡 Flag State Placeholders

    [PR #2913]

    New PlaceholderAPI placeholders expose the enabled/disabled state of every protection, setting, and world setting flag. Useful for scoreboards, tab lists, and addon integrations.

    ⚙️ MythicMobs Hook: Configurable Delay & Callback

    [PR #2929]

    The MythicMobs integration now supports a configurable delay for mob spawning and a callback that fires once the mob has been spawned, enabling addons to interact with spawned MythicMobs entities.

    🔺 Minecraft 26.1.1 Region Purge Support

    [PR #2902]

    Island deletion's region file purge now handles Minecraft 26.1.1's updated world file structure, ensuring island chunks are properly cleaned up on the newer Paper builds.


    Bug Fixes

    Fix MiniMessage formatting on panel items

    [PR #2903]

    Fixed default italic being applied to panel items and corrected cross-nested tag handling in the legacy-to-MiniMessage converter.

    Fix bold and decoration leaking across legacy round-trip

    [PR #2918] Fixes #2917

    Fixed bold, italic, underlined, strikethrough, and obfuscated decorations leaking into subsequent text segments when MiniMessage content is round-tripped through legacy colour codes. A custom component walker now emits §r resets where Adventure's built-in serializer does not.

    Fix bold formatting leaking past prefix substitution

    [PR #2907]

    Fixed bold text from [prefix] substitutions continuing into the message body by appending a §r reset after the prefix.

    Fix extra blank line in confirmation prompts

    [PR #2927] Fixes #2919

    Fixed an unwanted blank line appearing in conversation-style confirmation prompts.

    Preserve addon placeholders across /bbox reload

    [PR #2931] [PR #2932] Fixes #2930

    Addon-owned and game-mode placeholders are no longer lost when running /bbox reload.

    Skip locale files with invalid BCP-47 tags

    [PR #2928]

    Locale files with names that aren't valid BCP-47 language tags are now silently skipped instead of causing errors or blank entries in the locale selection panel.

    Hide tooltip clutter in all panels

    [PR #2924]

    Banner patterns, potion effects, and other item-specific tooltip data are now hidden in all BentoBox GUI panels using the modern TooltipDisplay data component API.

    Fix locale corrections across 22 languages

    [PR #2905]

    Mistranslations, broken colour/formatting tags, untranslated strings, and typos corrected across all 22 non-English locale files.

    Preserve mid-text spaces in legacy/MiniMessage round-trip

    Fixed spaces being collapsed when converting between legacy and MiniMessage formatting, preserving intended whitespace in translated strings.

    Support MiniMessage in welcome sign locale entries

    Welcome signs on island creation now correctly render MiniMessage-formatted locale strings.

    Defer island saves while settings panel is open

    [PR #2926]

    Island data is no longer saved on every settings click. Saves are deferred until the settings panel is closed, and a click cooldown prevents accidental rapid toggling.


    Other Improvements

    New Release Highlights

    • 🔺 Paper 26.1.1 (Minecraft 26.1.1) support — BentoBox now recognises Paper's new year-based versioning scheme (26.x.x) and no longer shows a compatibility warning. The version parser has been updated to handle the new getBukkitVersion() format. BentoBox remains fully compatible with Paper 1.21.5 – 1.21.11 servers.
    • ⚙️ 🔡 PAUSE_MOB_GROWTH protection flag — Minecraft 26.1.1 introduces golden dandelions that can pause or unpause baby mob growth. A new island protection flag lets island owners control who can use this feature. Defaults to members only. Supports both main-hand and off-hand interactions.
    • 🔡 MiniMessage locale migration — All locale files have been migrated from legacy §/& colour codes to Paper's MiniMessage format (<green>, <bold>, etc.), with full backward compatibility for existing custom translations. The format of MiniMessage messages can be found here.

    New Features

    🔺 Paper 26.1.1 Support

    [PR #2897]

    Paper has adopted a new year-based versioning scheme starting in 2026 (e.g., 26.1.1 instead of 1.21.12). BentoBox's ServerCompatibility version parser has been updated to handle the new getBukkitVersion() format (26.1.1.build.14-alpha), which includes a .build.N suffix that the old parser couldn't strip. V26_1_1 has been added to the supported versions enum as COMPATIBLE.

    BentoBox continues to compile against the Paper 1.21.11 API and remains compatible with all currently supported 1.21.x versions.

    ⚙️ 🔡 PAUSE_MOB_GROWTH Protection Flag

    [PR #2898] [PR #2900]

    Minecraft 26.1.1 added the ability to use a golden dandelion on a baby mob to pause or resume its growth. A new PAUSE_MOB_GROWTH island protection flag controls who can do this. The flag defaults to members and above; visitors are blocked.

    The listener checks PlayerInteractEntityEvent for a player holding GOLDEN_DANDELION in either hand targeting a baby Ageable mob. Uses Enums.getIfPresent for the flag icon material so BentoBox remains backward compatible with 1.21.x servers where the item doesn't exist.

    Translations added to all 23 locale files.

    🔡 MiniMessage Locale Migration

    [PR #2894] See: https://docs.papermc.io/adventure/minimessage/format/

    All locale files have been migrated from legacy §/& colour codes and ChatColor API usage to Paper's native MiniMessage format. This enables richer formatting (gradients, hover text, click events) and aligns with Paper's direction of deprecating legacy formatting.

    Backward compatibility is maintained: existing custom locale files using legacy codes will continue to work. Multiple follow-up fixes ensured edge cases were handled correctly:

    • Mixed MiniMessage/legacy content no longer shows raw tags
    • Multi-line translations preserve newlines correctly in panel lore
    • Flag panel rank colours render correctly
    • Conversation prompts display properly
    • Rank display maintains backward compatibility with legacy locale files

    Bug Fixes

    Fix ItemStack quantity > 99 crash during serialization

    [PR #2895]

    Fixed a crash when serialising an ItemStack with a quantity greater than 99. The quantity is now clamped to a valid range before serialization.

    Deduplicate lock/ban notification messages

    [PR #2892]

    Fixed an issue where players would receive repeated lock/ban notification messages when standing at an island boundary, causing chat spam.

    Fix hex color codes breaking subsequent legacy color codes

    [PR #2893]

    Fixed a bug where hex colour codes (e.g., &#FF0000) would corrupt subsequent legacy & colour codes in the same string.

    • 🗺️ ⚙️ Web-map integrations — BentoBox now ships with built-in BlueMap and Dynmap hooks that display island markers and area overlays on your web map automatically. A public Map API lets addon authors target any web-map plugin.
    • ⚙️ 🔡 SPAWN_PROTECTION world flag — Prevents players from dying to the void at spawn. Configurable per game-mode via the world settings panel.
    • ⚙️ 🔡 WIND_CHARGE protection flag — Controls whether visitors can fire wind charges on islands. Defaults to blocked for visitors.
    • ⚙️ 🔡 Expel fallback command — A new expelCommand config key (default: spawn) specifies the command run when an expelled player has no island or spawn point to fall back to.
    • ⚙️ 🔡 Blueprint paste commands — Blueprint bundles can define a list of commands that run when the blueprint is pasted, enabling automation on island creation.
    • 🔡 Blueprint GUI pagination — The blueprint management panel now paginates so large blueprint libraries are no longer cramped onto a single screen.
    • ⚙️ 🔡 Admin max team-size command — A new /bbox admin setmaxteamsize <player> <size> command lets you override the maximum team size on a per-island basis without editing config files.
    • 🔡 Clickable home list — The /is homes list is now clickable; selecting a home name in chat runs the go-home command automatically.
    • ⚙️ 🔡 Force-field fling — Players are now flung away from island force-fields when they walk into them, rather than just being teleported (improves feel on flying game modes).
    • ⚙️ Obsidian-scooping abuse fix — Two new config knobs (obsidianScoopingCooldown and obsidianScoopingRadius) prevent rapid lava/obsidian duplication exploits.

    New Features

    ⚙️ BlueMap & Dynmap Web-Map Integration

    [PR #2861] [PR #2883] [PR #2884] [PR #2885]

    BentoBox now ships with hooks for BlueMap and Dynmap. When either plugin is installed, island markers and (for BlueMap) coloured area overlays are added to the live web map automatically, without any configuration required.

    A new generic Map API (world.bentobox.bentobox.api.map) lets addon authors register their own web-map implementations, so any mapping plugin can be supported in the future.

    Additional Map API polish after initial merge:

    • Map hooks now register before addons enable, so addons can create markers during onEnable(). Island population is deferred to BentoBoxReadyEvent when islands are fully loaded.
    • addPointMarker() now accepts an iconName parameter; Dynmap maps this to its icon registry (with fallback to "default") and all 85 built-in Dynmap icon names are documented in MapManager Javadoc.
    • Dynmap point marker labels support HTML markup (e.g. coloured owner names) via isMarkupLabel=true.

    ⚙️ 🔡 SPAWN_PROTECTION World Setting Flag

    [PR #2865]

    A new SPAWN_PROTECTION world setting flag prevents players at spawn from falling into the void. When enabled, the spawn area is treated as protected ground and void-death is suppressed. Useful for game modes where the spawn platform is exposed.

    ⚙️ 🔡 WIND_CHARGE Protection Flag

    [PR #2855]

    A new WIND_CHARGE island protection flag controls who can use wind charge items on an island. By default visitors are blocked, preventing griefing through knockback.

    ⚙️ 🔡 Expel Fallback Command

    [PR #2846]

    A new expelCommand setting in config.yml (default: spawn) specifies the console command run when an expelled player has no home island and no known spawn point. Previously such players would be stuck.

    ⚙️ Blueprint Paste Commands

    [PR #2852]

    Blueprint bundles now support an optional commands list. Each command is run (as the server console) when the bundle's blueprint is pasted, making it easy to trigger automation or economy actions on island creation.

    🔡 Blueprint GUI Pagination

    [PR #2867]

    The blueprint management GUI now paginates. Servers with large numbers of blueprints will see next/previous page navigation buttons instead of a single overflowing panel.

    ⚙️ 🔡 Admin Max Team-Size Command

    [PR #2851] [PR #2854]

    A new /bbox admin setmaxteamsize <player> <size> command lets server admins override the maximum team size for a specific island at runtime, without touching config files.

    🔡 Clickable Home List in Chat

    [PR #2879]

    The /is homes listing in chat is now clickable. Clicking a home name runs the go-home command for that home automatically, saving players from typing.

    🔡 Force-Field Fling

    [PR #2122] [PR #2880]

    Players who walk into an island force-field (locked island boundary) are now physically flung back rather than teleported, giving a more natural feel, especially on flying game modes.

    🔡 Bypass Lock Notification

    [PR #2869]

    Admins and players with the bypass permission now receive a notification message when they enter a locked island, so it is clear that the lock has been overridden.

    Geo-Limit Projectiles

    [PR #2863]

    Projectiles (arrows, tridents, etc.) are now included in the geo-limit settings panel, giving island owners granular control over which projectile types visitors are allowed to fire.

    Paginated Help Command

    [PR #2859]

    /is help now supports a page number argument (/is help 2) so large command lists do not flood chat.

    /island lock Command

    [PR #2858]

    A new /island lock shortcut command lets island owners toggle the island lock without opening the settings panel.


    Bug Fixes

    Lava Bucket / Obsidian Duplication

    [PR #2842] [PR #2856] [PR #2860]

    Fixed an exploit where players could rapidly scoop buckets of lava from obsidian to duplicate it. A per-player cooldown (obsidianScoopingCooldown, default: 1 minute) and a proximity radius check (obsidianScoopingRadius, default: 5 blocks) now prevent abuse. Both values are configurable in config.yml.

    Player XP Not Resetting

    [PR #2866]

    Fixed a bug where player XP was not being reset when joining a team or creating a new island via the no-teleport code path.

    Sugar Cane, Cocoa Beans & Nether Wart Protection Flags

    [PR #2870]

    Sugar cane was not registered under the HARVEST flag and was not protected against premature breaking. Sugar cane, cocoa beans, and nether wart were also missing from CROP_PLANTING protection. They now all respect the correct flag settings.

    Purge Unowned Islands NPE

    [PR #2843]

    Fixed a NullPointerException in the purge-unowned-islands command that occurred when an island's world was null.

    End/Nether Explosion Crash

    [PR #2844]

    Fixed a NullPointerException in StandardSpawnProtectionListener that occurred when an explosion happened in a standard End or Nether world that was not managed by BentoBox.

    Island Settings Comparator

    [PR #2864]

    Fixed an inconsistent comparator in the island settings panel that could throw a IllegalArgumentException under certain flag ordering conditions.

    Color Codes in Multi-Line Translated Strings

    [PR #2877]

    Fixed color/formatting codes being stripped from the second and subsequent lines of multi-line locale strings.

    Players Falling into the Void on New Island Creation

    [PR #2890]

    Fixed a bug where players could fall into the void immediately after a new island was created if the teleport destination hadn't solidified yet. homeTeleportAsync now performs a safe-spot check before teleporting and retries with exception handling if the location lookup fails, preventing void deaths on fresh islands.


    Configuration Changes

    Three new settings in config.yml:

    KeyDefaultDescription
    expelCommandspawnConsole command run when an expelled player has no destination
    obsidianScoopingRadius5Block radius (0–15) checked for nearby obsidian during bucket use
    obsidianScoopingCooldown1Minutes before a player can scoop obsidian again (minimum: 1)

    Internal / Developer Changes

    • Added a generic Map API (api/map) so addon authors can integrate with any web-map plugin.
    • Extensive SonarCloud quality pass: sealed classes, ChatColor removal, lambda/@Override style, variable-shadowing fixes, cognitive-complexity reductions (see PR #2875).
    • Removed unnecessary public modifiers from JUnit 5 test classes and methods (PR #2849).
    • Added CLAUDE.md project guidance file for AI-assisted development (PR #2848).
    • Resolved all previously failing and skipped tests; test suite is now fully green (PR #2872).
    • Added public API method for reading Why-debug flag messages from FlagListener (PR #2857).

    • Fixed /bbox purge regions not deleting nether/end region files, and corrected login-check logic and scan reporting
    • BentoBox teleports now use TeleportCause.PLUGIN instead of UNKNOWN, fixing compatibility with Essentials /back

    Compatibility

    ✔️ Paper Minecraft 1.21.5 - 1.21.1 ✔️ Java 21

    Upgrading

    2. Stop the server
    3. Replace the BentoBox jar with this one
    4. Restart the server
    5. You should be good to go!

    🔺 Config migration note: The VISITOR_TRIGGER_RAID world setting has been removed. It is replaced by the new per-island RAID_TRIGGER protection flag. Review your game mode configs after upgrading.

    New Features

    ⚙️ 🔡 🔺 RAID_TRIGGER Protection Flag (replaces VISITOR_TRIGGER_RAID)

    [PR #2801](https://github.com/BentoBoxWorld/BentoBox/pull/2801)

    The VISITOR_TRIGGER_RAID world setting has been converted into a proper island protection flag called RAID_TRIGGER. Island owners can now configure the minimum rank required to trigger a raid on their island (visitor, member, trusted, owner, etc.) via the island settings panel. Players attempting to trigger a raid below the configured rank will have their action blocked without consuming their Bad Omen effect. By default, only members and above can trigger raids — matching previous behaviour.

    ⚙️ 🔡 Economy Integration for Blueprint Bundle Costs

    [PR #2806](https://github.com/BentoBoxWorld/BentoBox/pull/2806)

    Admins can now assign a Vault economy cost to blueprint bundles. A cost editor is available in the admin GUI. When economy is enabled and multiple bundles are available, players will see costs displayed and must be able to afford a bundle before selecting it. A new config option charge-for-blueprint-on-reset (default: false) controls whether the cost also applies when resetting an island. Costs are silently skipped when Vault/economy is not installed.

    Placeholder Browser GUI and Dump Command

    [PR #2803](https://github.com/BentoBoxWorld/BentoBox/pull/2803)

    Two new admin tools for managing placeholders:

    • /bbox placeholders (alias ph) — opens an interactive GUI showing all registered placeholders organised by addon, with resolved values.
    • /bbox dump-placeholders — generates a Markdown file documenting every registered placeholder, useful for documentation and the BentoBoxWorld docs site.

    Panel appearance can be customised via BentoBox/panels/placeholder_panel.yml and placeholder_list_panel.yml.

    Automatic Update Notifications

    [PR #2834](https://github.com/BentoBoxWorld/BentoBox/pull/2834)

    BentoBox now checks for newer releases on startup and prints a coloured banner to the console if an update is available. The check runs asynchronously and fails silently on network errors. Development builds skip the check entirely.


    Performance

    🔺 Faster Island Loading — Spatial Hash for IslandGrid

    [PR #2840](https://github.com/BentoBoxWorld/BentoBox/pull/2840)

    The internal island grid has been rewritten to use a spatial hash map instead of nested TreeMaps. This reduces island loading from O(n²) to O(n) average-case, directly fixing the issue where servers with large numbers of islands would hang at "Loading islands from database...". Also corrects a bug that could cause large islands to be missed by coordinate lookups (relevant to plugins like Stranger Realms).


    Bug Fixes

    🔺 Addon Binary Compatibility and Class Loading Fix

    [PR #2836](https://github.com/BentoBoxWorld/BentoBox/pull/2836)

    Restores the ImmutableSet<UUID> return type on Island.getMemberSet(), which had been changed to Set<UUID> and was causing NoSuchMethodError at runtime for addons compiled against earlier BentoBox versions. Also fixes an IllegalStateException: Recursive update in AddonClassLoader that caused startup failures for addons with cross-addon dependencies (e.g. DimensionalTrees).

    Fix NETHER_PORTAL / END_PORTAL Flag Bypass

    [PR #2802](https://github.com/BentoBoxWorld/BentoBox/pull/2802)

    When Paper's misc.enable-nether (or enable-end) was set to false, BentoBox's portal handling bypassed the Bukkit event bus entirely, allowing visitors to use portals regardless of the protection flag. Events are now properly routed through Bukkit.getPluginManager().callEvent() so flag checks fire correctly.

    Fix Purge Regions

    [PR #2841](https://github.com/BentoBoxWorld/BentoBox/pull/2841) [PR #2804](https://github.com/BentoBoxWorld/BentoBox/pull/2804) [PR #2805](https://github.com/BentoBoxWorld/BentoBox/pull/2805)

    Several fixes to the /bbox purge regions command:

    • Nether/end worlds were not being detected correctly due to early evaluation before addon worlds loaded
    • The recent-login protection check had inverted logic and only checked the island owner rather than all team members
    • Region files in nether and end worlds were not being deleted
    • Scan reports now show how many islands are blocked by level thresholds vs. protection flags

    Fix Copper Golem Item Theft by Visitors

    [PR #2799](https://github.com/BentoBoxWorld/BentoBox/pull/2799)

    Visitors could steal items held by Copper Golems by hitting them. This has been fixed.

    Fix TeleportCause for Plugin-Initiated Teleports

    [PR #2800](https://github.com/BentoBoxWorld/BentoBox/pull/2800)

    BentoBox teleports (home, safe-spot etc.) now correctly use TeleportCause.PLUGIN instead of TeleportCause.UNKNOWN. This fixes compatibility with plugins like Essentials where /back would not work after a BentoBox teleport.

    Fix force-shown Integer in Panel Configuration

    [PR #2832](https://github.com/BentoBoxWorld/BentoBox/pull/2832)

    Setting force-shown: N in a panel YAML now correctly forces all rows 1 through N to be visible, rather than only the last row. The list form force-shown: [2, 4] is unaffected.


    Internal / Developer Changes

    A large batch of code quality improvements driven by SonarCloud analysis: sealed classes, removal of deprecated ChatColor API, lambda and @Override style fixes, variable shadowing, cognitive complexity reduction in TemplateReader, production code quality improvements, and replacement of deprecated EntityDamageByEntityEvent and LingeringPotion test APIs. Extensive new JUnit 5 test suites added for ClosestSafeSpotTeleport, SQLDatabaseHandler, BlueprintPaster, IslandTeamInviteGUI, DefaultPasteUtil, and others. Placeholder panel pagination deduplicated into AbstractPanel.
