🎣 Modded Mobs, Ores and Fish

A resource can now track a modded mob or item instead of a vanilla one, through MythicMobs for mobs and ItemsAdder for blocks and items.

This fixes modded content that shares a vanilla type underneath. A MythicMobs mob that is secretly a pig used to count for the pig collection as well, so killing it fed both. Now it only counts for the resource you set up for it, and killing a real pig only counts for the vanilla one. Same for ItemsAdder ores, wood and fish.

Use mythicmobs-types for mobs and itemsadder-ids for blocks and items. Both plugins are optional, and without them nothing changes.

📁 Subcategories

A collection can hold a group inside it now, so Fishing can contain a Pirate Dimension Fish group, each fish inside it with its own counter, tiers and rewards.

• The group shows as a greyed out locked icon until a player catches one of its items, then it opens normally
• Each entry inside unlocks on its own, and the rest stay locked
• Back buttons walk the whole way out: a tier menu goes to the group, the group goes to the collection
• Works the same in Mining, Farming and Hunting, with mythicmobs-types in place of itemsadder-ids for mobs

A ready to copy example is in the categories.yml header comment.

🖼 ItemsAdder Icons

Menu icons can be ItemsAdder items, so players see the real custom fish, ore or crop model instead of a plain vanilla stand in. Put itemsadder: 'namespace:item' next to a resource's material. Custom model data numbers work as icons too.

A wrong id falls back to the plain material and logs one warning, and without ItemsAdder everything looks as it did before.

🏝 Island Membership Lock

Island level rewards can now be held behind a stay on the same island, so nobody hops onto a high level island, claims everything and leaves.

• Until the wait is done, the island level collection is not discovered at all and nothing in it can be claimed
• Changing island, or having none, starts the clock again from zero. Every new island needs its own full wait, even for a player who has claimed tiers before
• Once the wait is done the reached tiers unlock for good, and can be claimed later even after leaving
• Claimed tiers stay claimed forever, so a player who claimed level 5 on one island can never claim level 5 again on another
• On a new island with a higher level, only the extra tiers wait out that island's own clock
• /collection island <player> shows the island the plugin sees and how long the player has been on it

Turning it on: add island-membership: 48h to your island level resource in categories.yml, right under material:, then run /collection reload. It is off until you do.

The plugin reads which island a player is on from island.placeholder in config.yml, which defaults to SuperiorSkyblock2's %superior_island_uuid%. Every player's clock starts the first time the plugin sees them after the update, so everyone waits once.

📦 Upgrading

Stop the server, replace the jar in plugins/ with zCollections-1.5.2.jar, start it again. Progress carries over with no reset, and config.yml, menus.yml and the language files update themselves while keeping your edits. categories.yml is never touched.
