Version: 1.1.1 Release Type: Critical Bug Fix

Critical Fixes - Folia Scheduler Compatibility

This release fixes a critical crash on startup caused by incompatible scheduler API usage with Folia.

Fixed:

• Folia Scheduler Compatibility - Replaced legacy Bukkit scheduler with Folia async scheduler
  • Previously, the plugin used Bukkit.getScheduler().runTaskTimerAsynchronously() which is unsupported in Folia (my mistake)
  • Folia's regionalized threading model requires use of its own async scheduler API
  • Error: java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException at CraftScheduler.runTaskTimerAsynchronously
  • Fix: Replaced with Bukkit.getAsyncScheduler().runAtFixedRate() using proper time units
  • Impact: Plugin now loads successfully on Folia servers without crashing

Technical Details:

• Changed update checker scheduling from tick-based to time-based (3600 seconds = 1 hour)
• Added java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit import for proper time unit handling
• Updated scheduler call at ProtectCordPlugin.java:90-97
• Maintains same hourly update check frequency

Compatibility:

• Fully backward compatible with v1.1.0 configuration and data
• No configuration changes required
• No breaking changes
• Tested on Folia 1.21.8
