EliteEssentials | Everything Your Server Needs and More!

1.1.13 - 2026-02-20

Added

• Custom help entries via custom_help.json - server admins can now add help text for commands from other plugins to /eehelp
  • Each entry has command, description, permission (everyone/op/custom node), and enabled fields
  • Ships with disabled examples so admins can see the format immediately
  • Reloads with /ee reload
• Added all missing commands to /eehelp: /playtime, /joindate, /mail, /afk, /ignore, /unignore, /gc, /chats, /repair, /trash, /vanish, /clearchat, /mute, /unmute, /ban, /unban, /tempban, /ipban, /unipban, /freeze, /invsee
  • Each entry respects its config enabled flag and permission checks
• Console broadcast options for monitoring player communications (all disabled by default)
  • chatFormat.broadcastToConsole - logs all player chat to console as [CHAT]
  • groupChat.broadcastToConsole - logs all group chat messages to console as [GC]
  • msg.broadcastToConsole - logs all private messages (/msg, /reply) to console as [MSG]

Improved

• Rewrote spawn-on-login system to eliminate the visible teleport flash
  • teleportOnEveryLogin now rewrites the player's save file on disconnect instead of teleporting after join
  • Players load directly at spawn with no teleport, no screen flash, no delay
  • Works correctly with per-world spawns and cross-world spawn (mainWorld setting)
• New players now land at the correct /setspawn location via Hytale's native spawn provider
• Removed teleportOnFirstJoin and teleportDelaySeconds config options (no longer needed)
• /setspawn message is now customizable via messages.json (spawnSet key with {world} and {location} placeholders)
• Fixed a server crash caused by spawn marker entity conflicts during chunk loading
  • Removed startup spawn provider sync that triggered SpawnReferenceSystems crashes

Fixed

• Fixed alias permission bypass that could allow privilege escalation through aliased commands
  • Added Gate 2 permission enforcement: aliases now validate the player has the target command's actual permission before dispatch, not just the alias's own permission
  • Prevents scenarios where an alias with "everyone" permission could invoke admin-only commands
  • Covers all known EE commands via a permission map; unknown commands (other plugins) still pass through to the target command's own permission check via CommandManager
  • Debug logging shows when Gate 2 blocks a command
