ParticleNativeAPI

Version 4.3.0 comes with:

• fixes for PaperMC 1.20.6
• added transparency param for ParticleTypeColor

Version 4.2.0 comes with:

• update for 1.20.6
• added new particles
• since 1.20.6: changed behavior of ENTITY_EFFECT (marked as not present in 1.8 and 1.13 lists)
• since 1.20.6: removed AMBIENT_ENTITY_EFFECT (marked as not present in particle lists)

Version 4.1.0 comes with few changes:

• updated for Spigot 1.20.2
• added 2 new particles: CHERRY_LEAVES and EGG_CRACK

Version 4.0.0 comes with HEAVILY refactored API:

• basically changed how particles are now accessed and being sent (check how-to-use doc for more info)
• many, many API changes

Because of so many changes, I suggest looking into migration-v3-to-v4 doc to get around how to adapt to new API.

I may support 3.x.x versions for a while, but only for limited time (few months I think at most).

Version 3.3.2 comes with support for MC 1.19.3

Version 3.3.1 comes with few internal non-API changes:

• reorganized most of code to make running unit tests in a more sophisticated way

Version 3.3.0 comes with few changes:

• updated for MC 1.19
• added 5 new particles
• added 2 new particle types
• some internal non-API changes

Version 3.2.1 comes with small change:

• fixed detecting synthetic methods on name inferrence
• bumped compile target from 1.7 to 1.8 (well, it's high time)

Version 3.2.0 comes with few changes:

• updated for MC 1.18
• added BLOCK_MARKER particle
• BARRIER & LIGHT were removed in MC 1.18, but maintained forward compatibility using BLOCK_MARKER
• some internal non-API changes

Version 3.1.0 comes with few new features and internal (non-API) changes:

• added new particles from MC 1.17
• added new particle types: ParticleTypeDustColorTransition and ParticleTypeVibration
• added new sendPacketIf variants of collection and location-radius related methods accepting PlayerPredicate, now packets can be send to selected players from player collections (or around location with radius) in a very efficient manner using lambdas! (API is still compatible with Java 7)
• fixed presence of very small redundant local variable in ParticleTypeItem from MC 1.7
• HUGE internal classes reorganization, internal ASM code is now much more readable and maintainable

Version 3.0.0 comes with MANY changes:

• refactored entire API into multi module project (api, core, plugin), by this, API can be used without runtime plugin dependency!
• added MANY unit tests to make sure API works exactly like intended
• fixed ParticleTypeNote near green color using unexpected xOffset
• extended domain package from com.github.fierioziy to com.github.fierioziy.particlenativeapi to avoid class errors with my future plugins

For more informations, check updated README at plugins' github.

Version 2.0.3 comes with improved packet method + ParticleTypeBlock 1.7 optimizations:

• now packet method with doubles is being overridden instead of method with floats (a little bit faster)
• ParticleTypeBlock in 1.7 is now a little bit faster due to removed one unnecessary check around meta parameter
• overall reorganized code around packet method in particle types in all versions

Version 2.0.2 comes with:

• added 10 new particles from 1.16
• ParticleTypeRedstone from Particles_1_8 will now work up to 1.16 (ParticleTypeDust is not backward compatible)
• packet method from ParticleType that accepts floats is now deprecated and will be removed in a future

Version 2.0.1 comes with few changes:

• particles lists now can use sendPacket methods and should be used instead of ServerConnection
• ServerConnection is deprecated now (will be removed in a future in terms of standalone object)
• sendPacket methods that iterates over players are a little bit optimized

Version 2.0.0 comes with moved all the code from package me.fierioziy.* to com.github.fierioziy.* to be synced with github domain and Maven.

• it will be probably last update prior to MC 1.16 release,
• simply replace all me.fierioziy with com.github.fierioziy in the code.

Version 1.3.1 comes with:

• fixed META-INF for Maven deploy,
• plugins that imported this API using Maven will now properly reference internal ASM classes (for any reason would you do it).

Version 1.3.0 comes with some restructuring changes:

• removed few useless packet method overloads and added more appropriate ones,
• added support for Player collections in ServerConnection,
• some typo/javadocs changes.

Version 1.2.0 comes with few fixes and huge rename changes:

• documented code a little bit more
• fixed ParticleTypeRedstone displaying wrong colors,
• fixed invalid color check in ParticleTypeNote,
• any ParticleType with "Dir" is renamed to ParticleType with "Motion" at the end,
• all create[Dir/Colored/Note] methods renamed to packet[Motion/Colored/Note] (so at first glance you see it returns packet, duh),
• ParticleNativeAPI's getInstance method renamed to getPlugin

Added compatibility with MC 1.15
