In this update, the whole turn system was rewritten to be a lot more efficient and better.

NOTE:

This is marked as a Beta release, due to the shop containing some bugs allowing you to get infinite coins, as item selling is broken.

IMPORTANT: This does not affect the main gameplay and does not create any major unbalance in the game.

Summarized Change-Log

• Rewrote the internal turn logic to use singleton objects instead of per-instance turns.
• Fixed the shop's filtering system and some translations.
• Updated all dependencies that the plugin uses.
• Added offline mode to disable online features like translations and the database.
• Improved the replay system by adding a few more values.
• Improved the items with their names and descriptions.
• Changed the warp configuration.
• Improved the commands to integrate better with the client.

• You can now use the plugin without setting up a database.
• Updated a lot of dependencies and generally made it more up-to-date.
• Completely rewrote the whole plugin and moved from Java to Kotlin.

• Added replays which are saved under plugins/NeoBB/replays/ and provide basic insights.
• You now have more options with items in the shop.
  • Sell items with Q.
  • Buy 5 using RMB.
  • Buy maximum amount using Shift+LMB.
• Adjusted some item prices and did some general rebalancing.
• Massively improved block outlines, now using block displays instead of shulker boxes, meaning that the outline now 1:1 matches the block.
• The turning player will now glow.
• Fixed and improved the ranking system.
• Player rating is now displayed in the scoreboard.
• Added ranks, which are calculated based on rating.
• Improved and fixed translations so the game feels a lot more finished.
