Update v1.0.6

✨ New Features

• Allowed Worlds System: Added a new active-worlds configuration setting in config.yml. You can now easily restrict contests so that players can only earn points in specific worlds (e.g., your survival world and not your lobby). (<by default, all worlds are allowed if the list is completely empty>).
• Command Alias: Added /nbc as a quick, native shortcut for the /nbcontest command!

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue where the /nbcontest reload command wasn't properly updating the world restrictions in the active event manager.
• World name verification is now case-insensitive (treating World and world identically) for better compatibility with world management plugins.

v1.0.5 - Advanced Scheduling Update

✨ New Features

• Calendar-Based Scheduling: You can now schedule events on specific days!
  • Code (Text):

    DAILY
    (runs every day)
    Code (Text):

    MONDAY
    to
    Code (Text):

    SUNDAY
    (runs only on specific days) []Mix and match! Have a daily event at 6 PM and a special event every Friday at 8 PM.
  
  Targeted Farming Contests:
  • You can now specify which crop to farm for a scheduled event! Example: Potato Contest on Saturdays, Wheat Contest on Sundays. If no type is specified, it remains random as before.

Improvements

• Scheduling Logic: Completely rewritten scheduler to handle complex daily/weekly patterns. Config Format: Updated
  Code (Text):

  auto-events
  configuration to be more structured and readable (backward compatibility maintained for simple lists).
• Optimization: Scheduler check frequency optimized for better server performance.

Bug Fixes
