Bukkit

• Version 4.12.2:
  • Added: changes for metrics reporting
    • report number of thrown blocks from blockphysics
    • report if any block filters by explosion type
    • report if modified explosion yield by type
    • new command acp stats to print to console same data reported to mcstats.org.
• Version 4.12.1:
  • Fixed: Crash on start with "java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.mcstats.Metrics.addCustomData " (Ticket 32).
    • ONLY USE this version if you see this error
    • Using it along with another plugin that uses the older (R6) verson of Metrics might cause problems, too, but haven't tested that
  • Added:
    • crystal explosions statistics, still in work adding a few more metrics
    • check for SafeCreeper at same time
      • implemented Modify_Prime() API.
      • report warning when SafeCreeper is nerfing same explosion
• Version 4.12:
  • Added: New nerf_crystal node for ender crystals
  • Fixed: "no push" bug on minecarts with default config (Ticket 31)
  • Extensive rewrite/simplification of code to make addition of new controlled explosions easier. Let me know of any bugs that my testing didn't find.
• Version 4.11:
  • Added: New optional config nodes nerf_fireball.skull and nerf_tnt.minecart and associated commands.
  • Fixed:
    • fixed bug that nerf_unknown.entitydamage was not being used
    • can now set different base power (there is a velocity factor) for TNT minecarts.
• Verison 4.10.1:
  • Fixed: entitydamage.depth logic reversed. Fixes Ticket 30
• Version 4.10:
  • Added: New nerf_unknown node.
    • Same controls as other explosions
    • except fire & power, which are set by the plugin generating the unknown explosion.
• Version 4.9:
  • Added: New explodeabove option for depth, reverses behavior
• Version 4.8:
  • Added: .blockphysics [true|false] causes destroyed blocks to be thrown from explosion center.
    • Yes, there are command options to turn it (all) on/off.
    • It can an slow down chained TNT calculations.
    • Haven't yet tested for TNT cannons
  • Updated: nerf_tnt.* now applies to TNT minecarts from 1.5 update
    • yes, requires 1.5. Also works with 1.5.1
    • caveat: can't set power of TNT mine carts; no ExplosionPrimeEvent. It seems they are quite strong
  • Added: reporting to mcstats.org. Turn off by setting opt-out to false in config/PluginMetrics/config.yml
• Version 4.7:
  • Added: .power config node now allows overriding each explosion radius/power
• Version 4.6.1:
  • Compiled with Java 1.6, so fixed if you are still using 1.6. Error details here.
• Version 4.6:
  • Improved:
    • standard explosion smoke visuals even when nerfed (Ticket 26)
    • Randomized drop locations when blocklists active
  • Fixed
    • ignore space in string material names for blocklists
    • set creeperYield when command used (Ticket 28)
    • display yields when no # supplied in command
  • Better? Added internal default for denigrated "damageblocks"

• Version 4.5:
  • Fixed: NPE on special explosions by other plugins (Ticket 27)
  • Added: command allowbeds (or just "beds") to set nerf_beds
• Version 4.4.2: compiled against 1.4.5-R1.0 Bukkit release
• Version 4.4.1
  • Fixed: recompiled with Bukkit development build >= 2505 to fix Ticket 25. Only needed if you work with Bukkit dev builds in your server.
• Version 4.4:
  • Fixed: not writing default config.yml when no plugin/Anticreeper3 directory (nod to @xColourTheory)
  • Added: nerf_beds to control exploding nether beds (nod to @iPedro2)
  • NOTE: built with beta build 1.4.5R0.2; download 4.4.1 to fix Ticket 25 for you servers that use Bukkit dev builds.
• Version 4.3.1:
  • Fixed: recompiled with Bukkit development build >= 2505 to fix Ticket 25. Only needed if you work with dev builds in your server.
• Version 4.3:
  • Fixed: nowhitespace bug in blocklist parsing
  • Changed: Unattributed explosions now check nerf_lightning.entitydamage (instead of nerf_tnt)
  • Added: nerf_wither.destroyblocks to control its ability to "walk through walls" (Ticket 24), separate of the spawn explosion
  • Changed: damageblocks now named explodeblocks to clearly differentiate from destroyblocks, but configs are backward-compatible
  • Added: nerf_dragon config node to control dragon's ability to sail through blocks
    • supports explodeblocks (yes, it is actually generating a bunch of 0-yield explosions)
    • supports blocklist/whitelist
  • And commands for all of the above
• Version 4.2:
  • Added: made topainting apply to item frames as well as picture frames
  • Added: handle unattributed explosions (usually, some other plugin) damaging entities
    • for now, uses nerf_tnt.entitydamage. entry. Could be separated to a new config item.
  • Fixed: bug when setting damageblocks using command line.
  • Added: command-line block filters now accept Bukkit Material names or ID numbers; either works.
    • I found this convenient, but remember that trees are "LOG" and planks are "WOOD", etc.
    • Cannot set subtypes in this way (such as birch or jungle wood); for that must use "17:2" form.
• Version 4.1:
  • Added: blocklift and blockplace commands for endermen control
  • Tested against 1.4.5-R0.2
• Version 4.0:
  • Added: in-game commands to print, set, and save configuration. Yay!

• Version 3.7:
  • Added: Full configurability of Wither boss explosion under nerf_wither
• Version 3.6.3:
  • Tested against 1.4.2-R0.2. No changes (yet).
• Version 3.6.2:
  • Fixed : entitydamage.depth check was reversed; still caused damage when depth=0. Ticket 23
• Version 3.6.1:
  • Fixed : uploaded wrong zip file. Sorry! This version will still report as 3.6
• Version 3.6:
  • Added: .fire attribute: set whether or not any explosion should start fires
    • Fixed: Nerfed fireball explosions used to not set fire to nearby blocks.
  • Changed: respect .entitydamage all the time, no matter if not nerfed nor filtered.
  • Added .entitydamage.depth: to control how deep altered explosion damage applies
• Version 3.5.1:
  • Fixed Ticket 20: crash (NPE by EntityDamageByEntityEvent) on TNT explosions.
• Version 3.5.0:

  • Added: nerf_lightning.entitydamage functionality (Ticket 15)
• Version 3.4.2:
  • Fixed: Removed dead code causing config file rewrite when interacting with other plugins (Ticket 16) Thanks to @daeger for the report and testing!
• Version 3.4.1:
  • Added: nerf_fireball.blocklist.
  • Fixed: (Ticket 14) All blocks were always being saved when .damageblocks= true and .blocklist not empty.
• Version 3.4.0:
  • Added: refined entitydamage configuration: mob, item, player, painting, and dropped items. Ticket 13]
• Version 3.3.2:
  • Changed: increased TNT chain delay relative to Ticket 12.
  • Fixed: .entitydamage=false not really working (only checked when nerfing block damage or filtering blocks). Yay!
• Version 3.3.1:
  • Fixed Ticket 12: "Only TNT chains" config doesn't trigger TNT.
  • Changed: Now respects .entitydamage=false and .effects=false even when damageblocks=true. If you really want to do it, OK! Also didn't really make sense when your blacklist had one type of block in it (ex. TNT) and it was a whitelist, so the only thing damaged is that.
• Version 3.3.0:
  • Added new feature to nerf enderman behaviors
  • Fixed bug: nerf_*.whitelist was not being checked; instead old style block_whitelist was being checked for both which defaulted to false.
• Version 3.2.2
  • Fixed: example config file inside zip at AntiCreeper/config.yml to new format
  • Fixed: some config booleans that should default to True were defaulting to false
• Version 3.2.1

  • using new event and configuration system of Bukkit, but no functional changes
• Version 3.0.0 : First release by Filbert66
  • New feature (tickets 1,3) with creeper/TNT nerf height/depth limit in variable "nerf_depth".
  • New feature (ticket 4): "creeper_yield" integer variable. Set to percentage (0-100) of blocks 2B leftover from un-nerfed creeper explosions
  • Fixed (ticket 5): nerfed explosions no longer destroy paintings
  • New feature (ticket 3, 5): new "tnt_list" or "creeper_list" of block IDs to NOT destroy. Flip to destroy only what's on the list by setting new "block_whitelist" to true.

• Changelog: Version 2.5
  • Added yml configuration file.
  • Ghast nerf.
  • Multi-world (Currently it just turn on/off ALL protection in that world. Sorry about that, YAML is a bit new to me )
• Changelog: Version 2.0
  • Added sounds.
• Changelog: Version 1.5
  • Added AntiCreeper with AntiTNT
• Changelog: Version 1.0
  • Releasing the plugin.

• Nerfed lightning still sets fire to things, so that can still cause damage. Recommend AntiFire.
• Fireballs "thrown" by a player (using some plugin) directly onto a hanging (picture or frame) knock it off the wall because the "breaker" is a Player. Bukkit doesn't communicate the difference between breaking by hand and breaking by thrown item. Still am able to nerf explosion damage from it, though.
• Exploding beds are special; have no blocklist or entitydamage config nodes.
• Unmodified minecart explosions (fire, yield, physics) use MC default fire & power since there is no ExplosionPrimeEvent. To avoid this set a blockfilter as blacklist with one innocuous block (ex. flower).

Fixed in 4.12: Setting effects false appears to disable entity "push" effects.

Fixed in 4.11: Can't set power of TNT mine carts; no ExplosionPrimeEvent
