🔧 SpawnElytra v2.5.2 - Bug Fix Release

Sorry for the issues introduced in v2.5.1! This release fixes a Paper 1.21.11 startup crash and two gaps in the Bedrock virtual elytra protection.

✨ What's Changed

🚨 Paper 1.21.11 Startup Fix

• Fixed NullPointerException on startup when running Paper 1.21.11
• Paper 1.21.11 changed getConfig() to call the overridden reloadConfig() before DataManager was initialized — this is now guarded correctly
• Plugin now enables cleanly on Paper 1.21.11 without crashing

🛡️ Bedrock Elytra Item Protection

• Elytra items in the inventory could previously displace the virtual elytra mid-flight — this is now blocked
• Previously only *_CHESTPLATE items were protected; elytra items are now included in all three inventory guards:
  • Direct clicks on the chestplate armor slot (slot 38)
  • MOVE_TO_OTHER_INVENTORY / auto-equip actions
  • Cursor placement onto the armor slot

🛡️ Bedrock Hotbar Right-click Protection

• Right-clicking a chestplate or elytra in the hotbar (with inventory closed) while flying no longer auto-equips it to the armor slot
• This path was previously unhandled — it now cancels via PlayerInteractEvent

📥 Installation

Download SpawnElytra-2.5.2.jar and place it in your plugins folder.

🔄 Upgrading

• Drop-in update from v2.5.1 or v2.5.0 — no configuration changes required

🔧 SpawnElytra v2.5.1 - Bedrock Fix & Quality of Life

A Bedrock inventory fix, a built-in update checker, and a new debug mode config option.

✨ What's Changed

🛡️ Bedrock Elytra Inventory Fix

• Bedrock players could previously right-click or shift-click a chestplate from their inventory to displace the virtual elytra mid-flight — this is now blocked
• Three paths are now prevented for flying Bedrock players:
  • Direct clicks on the chestplate armor slot (slot 38)
  • MOVE_TO_OTHER_INVENTORY / auto-equip actions on any *_CHESTPLATE item
  • Cursor placement of a chestplate onto the armor slot

🔔 Built-in Update Checker

• Plugin now checks Modrinth for updates asynchronously on startup
• If an update is available: logged to console and sent to the first op to join after each restart
• Can be disabled via checkForUpdates: false in config.yml

🐛 Debug Mode

• Added debugMode: false config option
• When false (default): only important messages are logged — no more spam from save/load cycles
• When true: verbose save/load logging is restored (useful for troubleshooting)

📥 Installation

Download SpawnElytra-2.5.1.jar and place it in your plugins folder.

🔄 Upgrading

• Drop-in update from v2.5.0 — no need to delete your config
• New config keys (checkForUpdates, debugMode) default to safe values if missing
• To use them, add to your config.yml:

checkForUpdates: true
debugMode: false

Or simply delete your config and let the plugin regenerate it with all options included.

🔧 SpawnElytra v2.5.0 - Broader Compatibility

This update restores compatibility with older server versions and adds a new config option for the spawn radius.

✨ What's Changed

🌍 Broader Version Support

• Plugin now works on 1.20.1 and all newer versions including 26.1.x, 26.2.x and beyond
• Previously was locked to 26.1.x only — this is now fixed

📐 New Config Option: ignoreYInSpawnRadius

• Added ignoreYInSpawnRadius to config.yml
• When false (default): uses full 3D distance from spawn — players high above spawn leave the radius sooner
• When true: only horizontal distance (X/Z) is checked — players can fly as high as they want while staying in the radius

📥 Installation

Download SpawnElytra-2.5.0.jar and place it in your plugins folder.

🔄 Upgrading

• Drop-in update from v2.4.2 — no need to delete your config
• If ignoreYInSpawnRadius is missing from your config, the plugin defaults to false (old behavior)
• To use the new option, add this line to your config.yml:

ignoreYInSpawnRadius: false

Or simply delete your config and let the plugin regenerate it with all new options included.

🔧 SpawnElytra v2.4.2 - Compatibility Update
