Timbr Update 1.1.0

Fixed

• Corrected server version detection to ensure modern display features are identified reliably across supported Minecraft versions.
• Fixed an issue where breaking an axe during tree felling could trigger an unexpected server error.
• Mining Fatigue removal now affects only effects applied by Timbr, leaving potion and third-party plugin effects untouched.
• Improved compatibility with protection plugins by preventing unnecessary event spam and eliminating rare startup issues.
• Significantly improved tree detection performance while enforcing configured tree size limits correctly.
• Fixed version comparison for update checks, ensuring new releases are detected accurately.
• Added additional safety checks to prevent errors when plugin information is unavailable.
• Improved particle compatibility on older server versions with graceful fallbacks where newer effects are unsupported.
• Prevented rare issues caused by invalid item drops and introduced a hard limit on animated entities to safeguard server performance.
• Fixed animated tree remnants persisting after /reload. All temporary entities are now cleaned up properly during shutdown.
• Resolved several issues introduced during internal refactoring, improving overall stability.
• Corrected tree-felling calculations so the final log is always processed correctly, even if the player's axe breaks at the last moment.

Added

• Laydown Mode

  • Trees may now fall naturally and come to rest on the ground instead of disappearing immediately.
  • Branches and leaves that collide with the terrain can break into drops, whilst the remaining trunk stays intact until mined.
  • Added new configuration options for:
    • Fell mode (INSTANT or LAYDOWN)
    • Fall speed
    • Slide distance
    • Ground collision behaviour
    • Clear-path requirements

• Automatic Configuration Upgrades

  • Missing configuration options are now added automatically during startup without overwriting existing user settings.
  • Because configuration files should evolve, not self-destruct.

• Improved Plugin Compatibility

  • Added official soft dependency support for common protection plugins, ensuring a more reliable loading order.

Changed

• Internal systems have been reorganised to improve maintainability and reduce duplicated logic.
• Improved thread safety for tree-felling operations, resulting in greater stability under heavy server load.
