PvP tagged should now block placing blocks when tagged It seems the PvP tagging plugin configs have been updated, settings moved and changed places over quite a few plugin updates. I re-made the entire config from scratch, which allowed me to enable the setting to block placing blocks when PvP tagged. Thanks for the report @PhilipG_ Please make a #│bugs report if anything broke with this, as I did have to start a fresh config.
Anti Border Hopping has been re-enabled.
Border hopping is when a player gets in PvP and tries to run into a safe zone to escape
Also blocks end pearls, resets the PvP tag back to full time, shows a hologram to you when It happens and pushes you back.
PSA I got an email saying that Ive nearly filled my backup box I use for snapshots. Turns out I didnt update my cleanup script to limit world backups I kept. So for a short period, I currently have 80 days of world backups... 3.2TB worth of world backups... So in a one time only misshap, you can request a rollback of an area up to 80 days ago, before I clean up all these old worlds! This goes for all worlds, on all servers. Make a #│support_ticket if something drastic happened that only a rollback can solve, this is a one time thing! I cant constantly keep this much data in the future!
Bear in mind, that its very rare we rollback, usually if something went wrong with the server. But you can always make a request just incase you fall into the 1%.

Fully re-written teleport to be async for better server performance and faster teleports, this is all /warps/homes and /tpa requests, the logic for safe teleport location has been entirely re-written accounting for dangerous blocks or lack of free space which can be bypassed with same /tpbypass command.

Yesterday I updated the shop rent plugin, massive thanks to @andrewandy for fantatsic development!
Supports all later versions of Minecraft server for when we update

@Changelog Alerts
Figured out the underlying issue why back wasnt being reset on PvP kill! Ignore the earlier update where I disabled dback, this has been brought back, as it wasnt the issue, we have conflicting plugins taking over the player kills player event and so the commands were not being run.
Titles back when getting a PvP kill
Sound back when you get a PvP Kill
Back & dback reset when you get killed in PvP
Sadly ive had to use the PvP tagging plugin to manage the commands run when you kill, which has a worse placeholder for the item used to kill with, it just displays the material name instead of the item name, ive made a request to have this resolved or to allow me to use the old placeholder.

Old World Restoration: We've added an update to allow @Admin to restore the old 1.7.4-1.12 parts of the world up to 1.17 fresh terrain!
Everything in the Red circle on the live map (You have to toggle it on) is "old world", outside of this is 1.18.
When parts of the old world are restored they will generate all the structures, new biomes and changes up to 1.17! If you squint at the island I re-generated in the screenshot you can see all the 1.13 sea updates were generated when I restored the island to its fresh terrain!
Due to the significant changes in terrain generation in 1.18, restoring parts of the old world generated before 1.18 isn't possible as 1.18 generates an entire new world that wont blend in.
The 1.18 parts of the world still work with //regen so they too can be refreshed if needed.
️ To request land regeneration please make a #│support_ticket@Changelog Alerts(edited)
