NeoEssentials — Changelog

Minecraft 1.21.1 – 1.21.11 · NeoForge 21.1.179+

1.0.2.5+build.1072 — 2026-03-06

🐛 Fixed: PowerTool System

• Powertools now fire on block right-clicks — previously they only worked when clicking in empty air. Now firing on any right-click (air, block, mob) as expected.
• /powertooltoggle now actually works — the handler was checking a dead legacy toggle class instead of the real per-player toggle. Fixed so the command now properly enables/disables all powertools for the player.
• Dead PowertoolToggleCommand class replaced with a compatibility shim to prevent double command registration.

1.0.2.5+build.1065 — 2026-03-05

✨ New: Tablist Dedicated Config File

Tablist settings now live in their own file — config/neoessentials/tablist.json — instead of being buried in config.json.

• Auto-deployed on first start, fully documented with descriptions and examples for every setting
• Backwards compatible — if you have a tablist section in your existing config.json it is still read automatically; no migration needed
• New groupColors setting to colour player names per permission group in the header/footer (e.g. admins in red, VIPs in aqua)
• & colour codes work everywhere: header, footer, playerFormat, afkSuffix, groupColors
• Reload in-game: /tablist reload

New commands:

• /tablist info — shows the full path to tablist.json and current status
• /tablist config — live summary of all active settings (frame counts, refresh rate, hide-vanished, AFK settings)

All placeholders supported: {player}, {displayname}, {online}, {max}, {ping}, {world}, {tps}, {time}, {server_name}, {x}, {y}, {z}, {balance}, {prefix}, {suffix}, {group}, {newline}, {bar}

🌍 Translation Key Audit

• ~120 missing translation keys added to en_us.json covering Whois, Helpop, List, ChestShop, Vault, and extra moderation messages
• Auto-merge on load — when the server's lang file is older than the JAR's, new keys are merged in automatically without overwriting any admin edits
• Duplicate keys removed and _langVersion tracking updated

🐛 Fixes

• Stale/duplicate translation keys in en_us.json cleaned up
• /tablist reload now resets animation frame counters immediately (no waiting for the next cycle)

1.0.2.5+build.1057 — 2026-03-05

✨ New: ChestShop System

Sign-based chest shops, fully integrated with the mod's economy and permission systems.

Creating a shop:

1. Place a chest
2. Place a sign on/next to the chest and write:

   Line 1: Your name  (or leave blank — auto-fills your name)
   Line 2: 5          (quantity per trade)
   Line 3: B 10:S 5   (buy price : sell price)
   Line 4: diamond    (item, or ? to assign by right-clicking)
   

3. Shop is live immediately!

Using a shop:

• Right-click sign → BUY items
• Left-click sign → SELL items
• Own sign → shows shop info

Admin Shops: Write Admin Shop on line 1 for unlimited stock (requires neoessentials.shop.create.admin)

Auto-fill item (?): Write ? on line 4, then right-click the sign holding the item you want — the sign updates automatically.

Commands: /chestshop list, /chestshop info, /chestshop convert, /chestshop remove, /chestshop reload (alias: /cshop)

✨ New: Vault API

Three Vault providers implemented and integrated:

• Economy — backed by NeoEssentials economy system; fires deposit/withdraw events
• Chat — prefix/suffix respects LuckPerms and FTB Ranks when installed
• Permissions — routes through external permission adapters automatically

🐛 Fixes

• Vault economy format() now uses live currency symbol from config
• Vault chat prefix/suffix now correctly uses LuckPerms/FTBRanks when installed
• Various NeoForge 1.21.1 API compatibility fixes (event classes, ItemStack methods, stats API)
• Duplicate keys in config.json fixed
• JSON syntax error in config.json fixed

1.0.2.5+build.908 — 2026-03-03
