Update 2.2.5
- Replaced old setup wizard with complete command-based setup system using /baa (BlueArcade Admin). Legacy setup wizard will be removed in future versions.
- Added comprehensive admin command suite. Some of the new commands include:
- Arena management: create, delete, enable, disable, list, info
- Arena configuration: setlobby, setname, setmode, setrounds, minplayers, maxplayers
- Game management: add, remove, list, enable, disable
- Game configuration: bounds, spawn, time, deathblock, finishline, floor, and game-specific settings
- Utilities: stick, pos1, pos2, clearselection, goto, teleport, reload
- Arena control: forcestart and forcestop commands to manually start or stop arenas
- Arenas can now be easily configured as standalone or party mode via commands instead of manually editing data files.
- Added JSON caching system for data files improving performance and reducing disk I/O.
NOTES:
- The setup wizard has been marked as deprecated and will be removed in a future version.
- Arenas created with the new command system cannot be modified using the legacy setup wizard.
- These changes are necessary to achieve plugin modularity. (https://trello.com/c/k6Fp9xnG/39-make-the-plugin-completely-modular)
