SpacePvP Update: New Localization System

Added support for 18 languages: UA, EN, RU, DE, PL, FR, IT, JA, KO, CS, SK, ZH, ES, AR, BG, NL, RO, BR, TR.

⚠️ Important for existing users:
If you already have a translation configured in the old messages.yml file, you need to move it to the new system, as the old file is no longer used:

1. In config.yml, set the desired language in the language field (e.g., en_US or uk_UA).
2. Copy your text from the old messages.yml.
3. Transfer it to the corresponding new file in the langs/ folder (e.g., langs/en_US.yml).
4. Reload the config with /spacepvp reload.

Configuration example in config.yml:

Minor bugs have been fixed to ensure smoother performance and eliminate inconsistencies.

➕ Small Additions
New minor features and enhancements have been added to polish existing functionality and improve customization.

Several useful features have been added to improve gameplay experience and give server owners more flexibility:

️ Arena Creation & Regeneration
You can now create arenas that regenerate automatically after a battle. If an arena is in use, the system will pick another free one if available.

Queue System Improvements

• Players no longer choose specific arenas — one is randomly selected.
  
  
• New permissions to control queue access:
  
  • spacepvp.queue.arena — join the queue for the arena
    
    
  • spacepvp.queue.randomlocation — join the queue for random location battles

Note:
WorldEdit or FastAsyncWorldEdit is required for version 1.8-beta.

Updates: Towny Check, New Placeholders & Click Settings

Several useful improvements have been added to enhance both gameplay and server management:

️ Towny Region Check
A check for Towny towns has been added — teleportation is now blocked into Towny towns to prevent abuse and maintain fair play.

New Placeholder: %spacepvp_total_games%
Displays the total number of games played on the server. Great for stats pages, scoreboards, and leaderboards.

⚔️ New Placeholder: %spacepvp_kd_ratio%
Added PlaceholderAPI support for %spacepvp_kd_ratio%, which shows the player's Kill/Death ratio.

️ Configurable Click Types
You can now configure which click types (left-click, right-click, shift-click, etc.) will open the inventory preview. This allows more flexibility in customizing user interaction.

‍ New Placeholder: {player_displayname}
A new {player_displayname} placeholder is now available. It works just like {player_name}, but supports nicknames with colors and formatting.
If your server uses colored nicknames, consider replacing {player_name} with {player_displayname} for better display.

Additionally, {player} was replaced with {player_name} in the following messages for consistency:

• points_given
  
  
• points_take_insufficient
  
  
• points_check
  
  
• points_taken
  

️ Interface Update & New Features
We’re bringing several improvements to the PvP experience, including a more polished GUI, a glowing item effect, and a brand-new Win Streak Bonus system.

✅ Fixes & Improvements:

• Fixed minor bugs related to GUI fillers
  Smoother, more reliable interface visuals.
  
  
• New GUI Item: EmptyListItem
  When there are no players in the /pvp list queue, a special placeholder item will now appear instead of leaving the slot empty.
  
  
• ✨ Item Glow Support in GUI
  You can now make GUI buttons/items glow with an enchantment-like effect:
  

# Should the item have enchantment glow?
glow: false

Set to true to activate the visual enchantment glow.

Win Streak Bonus System
A new system rewards players with extra points for consecutive wins.
By default, it includes the following tiers:

• Bronze — 3 wins → +1 point per kill
  
  
• Silver — 5 wins → +2 points per kill
  
  
• Gold — 10 wins → +5 points per kill
  

⚙️ Fully customizable:
You can remove, edit, or add tiers freely:
config.yml
enable_win_streak_bonus: true

win_streak_bonuses:
bronze:
required_streak: 3
bonus_points: 1
silver:
required_streak: 5
bonus_points: 2
gold:
required_streak: 10
bonus_points: 5
platinum: # Example custom tier
required_streak: 15
bonus_points: 10

Points System for Battles
New Feature: Winners of battles now earn points, which can be used to create a shop where players can exchange their points. You can create the shop using commands and the placeholder %spacepvp_points%.

Available Commands:

• ➕ /pvp points give (player) (amount) — give points to a player.
  
  
• ➖ /pvp points take (player) (amount) — take points from a player.
  
  
• /pvp points check (player) — check how many points a player has.

Permissions:

• spacepvp.command.points — permission to use the points commands.

Preventing Abuse with Twink Accounts: A setting has been added to prevent points from being awarded to players with the same IP address.

Configuration:

• ✅ The points system and IP address check can be disabled in the config.

No need to add this to development, as players will be able to create their own shops using the command and placeholder.

⏳ Playtime Requirement for PvP Commands

• New Setting:
  A new option has been added to restrict the use of /pvp commands for players who have not reached a required amount of playtime.
  
  
• Configuration:
  enable_playtime_requirement: true
  # Required playtime in seconds to use PvP commands
  required_playtime: 86400
  # Time display format: SHORT, LONG, CUSTOM
  time_format_type: LONG
  # Custom time format (use {days}, {hours}, {minutes}, {seconds})
  custom_time_format: '{days}d {hours}h {minutes}m {seconds}s'
  # Format settings for the LONG option
  long_time_format:
  days: d
  hours: h
  minutes: m
  seconds: s

  Players with the permission spacepvp.playtime.bypass

I recommend using:
AntiRelog,
