Plugin Update: Enhanced Chest System and Loot Distribution!

What's New?

• Updated Loot Tables:
  I've refreshed the loot tables to use the newest vanilla loot tables wherever possible. For example, in the jungle you'll now find loot from the updated jungle temple. Custom loot tables have also been improved – there are more items, more food options, more wood, and all the armor trims are now available across every dimension. Additionally, custom chests now include a wider selection of tools with more enchantment variety, and I've even swapped out wooden tools for gold ones for better balance.

• Increased Distribution:
  The probability of finding chests and spawners has been boosted by 2-3 times in all dimensions. This means chests are now easier to locate, and with the updated loot tables, the rewards will be even more enticing.

• Dynamic Loot & Performance Boost:
  Chests now populate their loot when they are opened instead of at the moment they're generated. This change not only improves performance by eliminating the need to calculate loot for every chest during chunk generation but also means that if loot tables are updated later, players will receive the new, updated loot instead of outdated items.

Enhanced Chest Modes

• Two Ways to Populate Chests:
  • Custom Loot Tables:
    Define exactly which items appear in your chests using either a compact or an expanded format. You can customize item display names (with color codes), set how enchantment levels are shown (either as numbers with a prefix or as Roman numerals), and even use filler items to adjust the rarity of valuable items.

• Minecraft-based Loot Tables:
  Use vanilla Minecraft’s loot generation with our updated loot table selections. Simply list the loot table names with their weights, and the plugin will automatically handle loot generation.
