## 7.0.13 * Update to 1.21.4 * Remove max-stack-size bypass in stack command * Fix a falling block metadata leak. (May still be problematic on Spigot, use Paper.) * Fix flame enchant being blocked as entity damage on the arrow itself. * More Paper-specific performance enhancements for hoppers. * Fix block-windcharge-explosions config option not doing anything. * Improvements to fishing rod protection. * More aggressive vehicle protection (vehicle-destroy now needs to be allowed for various non-destructive damage). * Move decorated pot usage from interact to chest-access.

* Add support for 1.21.4. * Fix block-windcharge-explosions config option.

This is the earliest release of WorldGuard on Modrinth. For earlier versions, please see our [CurseForge page](https://dev.bukkit.org/projects/worldguard). * Add support for MC 1.21. * Add wind-charge-burst flag which is checked along with `use` (for the interaction) or `pvp` (for the knockback). * Add breeze-charge-explosion flag for breeze charges (i.e. from the mob, not player wind charges). * Add moisture-change flag and config options. * Fix an error if a player logged in to an unloaded world. * Fix chest boat usage always being counted as ride. * Consider potions thrown by mobs as mob-damage. * Workaround spigot no longer sending block change events when a book is placed on a lectern. * Improve accuracy of target blocks in blacklist/build-perms events. **Known Issues**: Spigot still doesn't throw events in all cases for knockback from both wind charges and maces ("smash attacks"). These are small edge cases but should work immediately in WorldGuard if Spigot does start throwing events for those cases.

Please plan accordingly.

## WorldGuard 7.0.2 (superceded) **This version is compatible with:** - CraftBukkit/Spigot for 1.14.4 or 1.15.2 ([Paper ](https://papermc.io/)recommended) - THIS VERSION IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH VERSIONS PRIOR TO 1.14 **Changes** - Update to MC 1.15.

## WorldGuard 6.2.2 (for MC 1.12.2) This is the last release before MC 1.13 versions.

## WorldGuard 6.2.1 (superceded) If you are upgrading from a version earlier than 1.11 (1.10 or below), please read the following: - Due to changes in Spigot libraries, if you used the LWC plugin, you will likely get an "UnsatisfiedLinkException" error when starting your server. This will prevent WorldGuard from working properly. It is highly recommended you update to the unofficial LWC build and remove your LWC "lib" folder. If you get anything error related to "org.sqlite.core.NativeDB", try: making /tmp/ executable, switching to oraclejdk, and/or running with "-Dsqlite.purejava=true". These are not WorldGuard issues and we cannot fix them for you. - If you used a third-party plugin that added custom flags to WorldGuard, it may stop working with 6.2. It is highly recommended you backup your region files. Although WorldGuard will attempt to preserve the flags, they will likely be non-functional. Now that WorldGuard natively supports a custom flags API, third-party plugins will have to update to the new API before they work again. ** ** **This version supports only Minecraft 1.12.** It may partially function as far back as 1.8, but it is recommended to use version 6.2 for Minecraft versions 1.11.2 and below as you will encounter errors when running commands. **NEW DOCUMENTATION:** There is [new documentation](http://docs.enginehub.org/manual/worldguard/latest/). Developers: There is a page on using the new custom flag API. ## Changes in 6.2.1 - Flower pots are more strictly protected (via build, not just interact). - Added a config options (mobs.block-armor-stand-destroy) that does exactly what it says. - Added a firework-damage flag that does exactly what it says. - Add a wither-damage flag (protects from the explosion of the wither itself, not the skull projectiles) - Fix errors spamming console if invalid chest (3 or more connected chests) were connected to a hopper. - Improved readability of flag list when invalid flag is entered. ## Changes in 6.2 - Added 1.11 blocks. - Add config option to prevent teleport and spawn flags from being set outside of their region. - Added custom flags API. - Added custom session handler API. - Add transient property to regions for API. - Changed potion-splash flag to include throwing lingering potions. - Removed the construct flag. It has been deprecated for a very long time. - Fixed ender crystal protection. - Fixed some backwards compatibility issues. - Fixed mobs not igniting in regions due to Spigot changes. ## Changes in 6.1.2 - Added support for new blocks in 1.8, 1.9, and 1.10. - Added protection from nether portals being created in protected region (enable via config `nether-portal-protection`). - Added protection from slime block piston contraptions pushing into or pulling from regions. - Added `chorus-fruit-teleport` flag, works similar to `enderpearl` to prevent teleportation. - Added protection from pulling armor stands, items, and entities from protected regions. - Changed order of greeting and farewell flags on adjacent regions. When leaving a region with a farewell flag and entering one with a greeting flag, the farewell message will be shown first now. - Changed /heal command to also fill food/saturation meters. - Changed fall damage prevention to also prevent flying into walls with elytra being fatal. - Fixed fire-spread flag only preventing destruction, now prevents spreading too as per its name. - Fixed creepers targeting players being able to blow things up in certain cases. - Fixed armor stands being removed by /stoplag. - Fixed some issues with fireballs being able to explode when ghast-fireball was set to deny. - Fixed a lot of other minor issues. ## Changes in 6.1 - Added `exit-via-teleport` flag (default allow) to control exiting an exit=deny region via teleportation. - Added a `fall-damage` flag to control player damage caused by falling. - Added a `time-lock` flag to lock players' time of day.

Unset to restore to normal world weather. - Added `-s` to the event debugging commands to show a stack trace rather than attempt to detect the causing plugin. - Added support for using the `-e` argument (sets an empty value for the flag) in the flag set command when the type of flag is of the 'set' type. - Added NPCs from the Citizens plugin to a whitelist so they are not protected. - Added support for Spigot's BlockExplodeEvent. - Changed tripwire to fall under the `use` flag. - Changed enderchests to fall under the `use` flag. - Changed vehicles and animals so they are not included in the `interact` flag. - Changed the display of custom blacklist messages to no longer include a period at the end. - Changed protection logic to consider connected chests. - Changed the heal and feed flags to increase values for players who are invincible (or in creative mode) but not decrease them. - Changed PvP protection to consider both attacker and defender locations. - Fixed missing protection data for some 1.8-added blocks. - Fixed compatibility issues with MC 1.7. - Fixed inverted daylight detectors not being protected. - Fixed spawn eggs not being included in protection. - Fixed piston blocking not working due to a bug in Spigot. - Fixed the blocking of certain invalid entity damage events. - Fixed creeper explosions not being blocked in certain situations with explosion related flags set. - Fixed "stickiness" with some position-related flags, sometimes resulting in rubber banding in the exit flags. - Fixed armor stands so that they are treated more like item frames than mobs. - Fixed blocks (e.g. sugar canes) adjacent to physics blocks (e.g. sand) not updating. - Fixed a NullPointerException that occurred sometimes when generating the scheduler section of the report function (`/wg report`). - Fixed the "no XP drops" configuration not functioning following a previous release. - Fixed changes to region ownership sometimes not triggering a region database save. - Fixed bucket protection displaying the "deny effect" even if bucket use was not prevented. - Fixed CommandFilter matching emoticons and other unwanted characters. - Fixed an exception occurring sometimes during game mode changes. - Fixed primed TNT being checked twice for TNT flags. - [WorldEdit](https://modrinth.com/project/1u6JkXh5) should be updated to version 6.1.7 or newer.

Support for 1.3.2 (and below) is still provided in this release. - Added support for new and existing explosion types. - Added support for blocking withers with the following settings: mobs: block-wither-explosions: false block-wither-block-damage: false block-wither-skull-explosions: false block-wither-skull-block-damage: true - Added support for blocking item frames (and their use) in protected regions. - Added item frame destruction region flags (if you wish to disable item frame destruction completely). - (Re-)added support for priority R-tree region indexes. This means quicker region lookup, and better support for servers with thousands of regions. - Improved /region info output for -g group flags. - Allowed removing of -g group flags with /region flag. - Allowed /region flag to set group and value at once. - Deleting a region flag now also deletes group flag. - Fixed detection of attack by projectiles to be more accurate. - Fixed support for saving non-string flags in the MySQL region support. - Fixed spurious comma in "Flags:" /region info output. - Fixed players who are not in god mode not receiving damage in PVP areas from enderpearls. - Players will now be told that they are in a no-PvP area if they are in one and attempting to attack someone, or that the player they are attacking is in a no-PvP area, if that is the case instead. - Fixed an issue where region.getId() was lowercase'd each pass of a for loop in MySQLDatabase.updatePoly2dPoints(). - Fixed mob damage from projectiles not being properly blocked in regions whereapplicable. - Changed default region wand to leather (#334). **Warning:** You should update WorldEdit to the latest version.
