Pets+

[1.3.0] - 2026-02-17

Added

- MySQL Support - Implemented a robust MySQL persistence layer as an alternative to the default JSON storage. Allows for cross-server synchronization and improved data management for large servers.

- Database Configuration - Added a comprehensive set of database connection settings to config.json, including host, port, credentials, and table prefixing.

- Table Auto-Creation - The plugin automatically creates the necessary `pets` table on first connection if it doesn't exist, ensuring a seamless setup process.

 

Technical Improvements

 

- General bug fixes - Resolved syntax errors and removed duplicate method definitions in PetManager to improve code stability and maintainability.
