EssentialsX with 1.13 support is finally nearly here!

Important changes since 2.15.0

  • Support is currently only guaranteed for 1.13 and above.
    • The plugin may work on 1.12.2 and below, but 2.16-pre3 has not been extensively tested on these versions.
  • Item IDs have been removed! This means any permissions with item IDs will not be recognised.
    • To be precise, item IDs have been removed from permission checks, command costs and item lookups in /worth, /give, /item, more, /repair, and EssentialsX AntiBuild and Protect
    • On 1.12.2 and below, you can still use item IDs in /give and /item.
    • On 1.13+, you can set allow-old-id-signs: true in your config to allow players to retrieve items stored in [trade] signs that use IDs. You cannot create new signs with IDs, however.
  • On 1.13+, EssentialsX now uses items.json, a new item database format.
    • Plugins can now manually load in additional items into EssentialsX's database.
    • Some plugins that used to rely on EssentialsX's item database may require updates to continue working properly.
    • The items.csv file is ignored on 1.13 and above.
  • EssentialsX now requires Java 8 and will not run on older versions.
  • Deprecated economy plugins are no longer supported - these are BOSEconomy, iConomy 5/6 and MultiCurrency
    • This allows you to finally add EssentialsX as a dependency in your plugin without cloning and building it first.

Bug fixes

  • 16b2c3d: Clear any pending unconfirmed commands when a player logs in
  • de57a8c: EssentialsX Protect now disables emergency mode if Essentials somehow loads after it
  • 8aa764f: Allow /nick off for players who can only change their username's colours
  • a44775c: Prevent usernames being duplicated in the /ignore list
    • This fixes issues with plugins that added users to player's ignore lists without removing them, which meant removing them from the list wouldn't work properly.
  • 52d814f: Playtime is now accurately reported in /whois in 1.13
  • 3ef0f20: Tipped arrows are supported by the old item database
  • 37acdc1: Fix typo in comment above milk-bucket-easter-egg
  • 3c6a869: Only spawn mobs with iron armour if specified
  • f569b89: Round down an account's balancec when converting to a double
    • This works around a money duplication exploit in outdated versions of ChestShop, but you should still update ChestShop as the problem was properly mitigated across all economy plugins
  • bad0272: Allow /eco take to subtract a player's exact balance
  • 935b5cf: Use the Bukkit setUnbreakable method where available instead of the Spigot one
  • 575a11b: createKitSuccess messages now correctly refer to kits.yml instead of config.yml
  • 9576ea2: Use reflection to detect which item pickup listener to use
    • EssentialsX should now start up on Glowstone, though support is not guaranteed - please report any issues with EssentialsX on Glowstone on our issue tracker
  • ba95958: Use internal method for setting/updating the currency format
    • The plugin should now run on Java 9 and above.
  • 7dd52da: Add a Bukkit version utility class
    • This can be used to replace the inconsistent usages of ReflUtil which break on Glowstone.
  • ec83a5f: Add support for newer EntityPickupItemEvent in AntiBuild
  • 7b67b3b: Don't send empty line join/quit messages
    • Finally, you can now set custom-join-message/custom-quit-message to "" and EssentialsX won't send any message at all!
  • a18ce40: Add hide-displayname-in-vanish config option to hide nicknames of vanished users
    • This avoids revealing when players are in vanish rather than offline.
  • 579f554: Fix nickname not being set properly when disabling AFK mode

Other features added since 2.15

  • b29f98c: Add world-specific /back permissions
    • You can revoke essentials.back.into.<world> from players to prevent them using /back to teleport into the specific world.
    • This permission defaults to true, meaning by default all players can teleport into all worlds.
  • 030eb33: Block ignite only for PvP, not for PvE
    • Players in god mode can now ignite mobs with bows, which was not previously possible.
  • 2ff29da: Add a message when trying to jail someone in a jail that doesn't exist

  • 4873beb: Add config option to require a permission before updating a player's compass direction
    • If compass-towards-home-perm is enabled in the EssentialsX config, then the permission essentials.home.compass is checked before changing the player's compass target.

  • 504a7ae: 1.13 mobs are now supported

  • 81397d9: Make the "internal error" messages and the compass directions translatable
  • f97c5fc: Make /realname's output message translatable

  • a3eb587: Add essentials.nick.allowunsafe permission

  • a2a95ed: Add acacia, birch and dark oak trees to /tree and /bigtree
  • 280d121: Add a UserWarpEvent class for when users teleport to a defined warp
