TreexClans

A major stability and security update. Back up storage.yml, data.db, ​​or your MySQL database before updating.

⚠️ Important Update Notes

• PlaceholderAPI is now mandatory. The plugin will not start without it.
• MySQL: Tables now use the treexclans_ prefix. Old tables will be renamed automatically upon the first startup.
• SQLite: data.db-wal and data.db-shm files will appear alongside data.db; this is normal—do not delete them.
• Upon the first startup, the plugin will automatically remove players who were listed in two clans simultaneously due to old bugs (check the console for details).

New settings and messages will be added to your config.yml and messages.yml automatically; your existing changes will remain intact.

New Settings (config.yml)

storage:
autosave-minutes: 5          # clan autosave interval
​​ table-prefix: "treexclans_"  # MySQL table prefix

base-teleport-delay: 3         # /clan base delay in seconds; 0 for instant

Security and Duplication Fixes

• Fixed a money duplication exploit involving /clan deposit and /clan withdraw with invalid amounts.
• /clan withdraw now checks for the withdraw permission (previously, the deposit permission was sufficient).
• Fixed an item duplication exploit involving the clan chest after a server restart.
• Permissions modified in one clan's rank menu no longer apply to other clans.
• The leader rank can no longer be modified via the permissions menu.
• Clan chat no longer processes formatting tags or clickable elements from player messages. - Muted players can no longer write in the clan chat, including via /clan chat <text>.
• The member limit can no longer be bypassed by sending multiple invitations.
• Invitations from a deleted clan are no longer valid for a new clan with the same name.
• /clan transfer no longer causes the server to hang.
• /clan kick and /clan invite no longer trigger for a player whose username merely starts with the specified text.

Data Saving

• Added auto-saving. Money and clan roster are saved immediately after changes; the chest is saved immediately after closing.
• Kicked players and those who left no longer return to the clan after a restart.
• Deleted clans are no longer restored after a restart when using SQLite/MySQL.
• Renaming a clan no longer creates a duplicate clan or causes the loss of addon data.
• storage.yml no longer becomes corrupted if the server crashes during saving.
• A single corrupted clan no longer prevents the plugin from starting; it is skipped, and an error is logged to the console.
• Clan base data in a world that hasn't loaded yet is no longer wiped.

Gameplay Changes

• /clan base is now a delayed teleport. It is cancelled upon movement or taking damage.
• The clan creation fee is charged only if the clan is successfully created.
• Renaming a clan no longer incurs the creation fee.
• /clan kick, /clan setrank, and /clan transfer now work with offline members.
• /clan accept checks if there is available space in the clan.
• The slogan now uses its own length and character settings from the slogan section (previously, it used prefix settings). - At the maximum level, clan XP now accumulates instead of resetting.
• Fixed the "last seen" timestamp for players who have been offline for more than 24 days.

Admin Commands

• /tc reload no longer breaks addon commands and only closes the plugin menu.
• /tc reset_storage requires confirmation (/tc reset_storage confirm) and actually deletes clans.
• /tc clan <clan> disband now works from the console.
• /tc clan <clan> rename validates the name and notifies you if it is already taken.
• /tc commands no longer throw errors when arguments are missing or numbers are invalid.

Other

• Fixed console errors related to /clan setrank for players not in a clan and the member menu displaying a player without a known username.
• Addons now load in the correct dependency order. Rank permissions from addons no longer reset after a restart.
• Configuration updates from older versions are now applied in a single startup.
• Optimized player clan lookups (placeholders, chat, damage).
