SignEdit for Bukkit

Pre-Release Notes

Since Previous Pre-Release

• Fixed the server crash when right-clicking a sign (#37)
• SignEdit for Bukkit now properly takes over the native Minecraft sign editor for unwaxed signs in Minecraft 1.20+. (#35)
• PaperMC no longer causes SignEdit for Bukkit to say "Sign edit forbidden by policy or other plugin" or "Modified by another plugin" on PaperMC when using /sign ui and any existing line begins with a formatting code and there are no other formatting codes on the line.
• Fixed compatibility with other plugins that take control of right-click on signs (#36)
• Fixed documentation of /sign undo and /sign redo in /? signedit
• Added a machine translation for the new locale strings in Hong Kong Cantonese (zh-HK)

Known Issues

• /sign undo and /sign redo treat waxed signs as unwaxed signs.
• When using the Spigot server, /sign ui edits are not registered due to a bug (SPIGOT-7391). Either switch to PaperMC or use /sign set as a workaround.
• The new locale strings relating to waxed signs have not been proofread for the locales de, nl, zh-CN, zh-TW, and zh-HK.

Added

• Support for Minecraft 1.20 sign sides (front and back)
• Support for Minecraft 1.20 honeycomb wax on signs
• On Minecraft 1.20+, opening an editable sign (sign without honeycomb wax) by right-click will open a sign editor handled by this plugin.
• (Minecraft 1.20+ only) /sign wax and /sign unwax commands and permissions to apply and remove honeycomb wax from signs, respectively
• New locale strings:
  • wax_removed – Completed /sign unwax action
  • wax_applied – Completed /sign wax action
  • bypass_wax_before – Warning before a /sign text change that wax will be removed
  • bypass_wax_after – Warning after a /sign text change that wax was reapplied
  • bypass_wax_cannot_rewax – Warning after a /sign text change that wax was not reapplied because the player lacks permission to /sign wax
  • unwax_sign – /sign unwax pending action description
  • wax_sign – /sign wax pending action description
  • forbidden_waxed_sign_edit – Error when attempting to edit a waxed sign without permission to run /sign unwax

Changed

• The documentation of /sign undo and /sign redo has been clarified to indicate that they affect only the sign text, not the dyes or wax applied to the sign.

Fixed

• Failure and error when editing hanging signs and wall hanging signs from Minecraft 1.20 when using compatibility.edit-validation: Extra (#34)

  

• java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid page number (1) when using compatibility.sign-ui: EditableBook and saving a blank book

Under the Hood

• Tacked on some adapters to make the plugin compatible with Bukkit 1.20 org.bukkit.block.sign.SignSide
• Decreased the right-click event handling priority to the lowest level to avoid interfering with other plugins that handle right-click events on signs
• Permission processing moved from SignCommand.permitted(Player, String) to InteractionCommand.isPermitted()
• SignText.signChanged() renamed to SignText.signTextChanged() as part of clarification that only text changes count in /sign undo and /sign redo
• Started pulling org.bukkit.entity.Player out of constructor injections, as various classes are being used in wider scopes.
• Gradle 9.0 compatibility:
  • Replaced Gradle 8.2 deprecations with recommended replacements
  • Updated Gradle to version 8.2-rc-2
  • Added JDK toolchain resolver plugin to download Java 1.8
• Skip ProGuard for development builds
• Eliminated the dependency on commons-lang:commons-lang
