HuskTowns 1.5.1 - Hotfix

This hotfix update fixes a single but important issue with the previous version. It's important that you update!
• Fixed it not being possible to properly disband a town
All you need to do is drag and drop the new version with HuskTowns 1.5 to update. Apologies for the inconvenience. If you're updating from HuskTowns 1.4 please check the changelog and information for the previous release.

HuskTowns 1.5 - Town flags, settings menu & much more!

HuskTowns 1.5 introduces the brand new town flags system to HuskTowns, a new town settings interface and makes a myriad of tweaks and improvements!

• Added /town settings to allow you to easily change settings for your town
• Added the new town flags system!
- Let you define rules for what can happen inside town claims
- There are 8 flags to set:
▫ Explosion Damage - Whether explosions can break stuff (e.g TNT, End Crystals, Creepers, Withers)
▫ Fire Damage - Whether fire can destroy stuff
▫ Mob Griefing - Whether mobs can grief stuff (e.g Enderman)
▫ Monster Spawning - Whether monsters can spawn
▫ Public Build Access - Whether members of the public can build in the claim
▫ Public Container Access - Whether members of the public can open containers in the claim (e.g Chests, Hoppers, Furnaces etc)
▫ Public Interact Access - Whether members of the public can interact in the claim (e.g Doors, levers, buttons, etc)
▫ PvP - Whether players can engage in combat in the claim
- Can be set for all three types of claims (regular, farms & plots)
- Players can easily set these with the interface on the new /town settings menu
- Flags can also be set in configuration for outside of claims, unclaimable worlds & admin claims. The defaults for towns can also be set.
- Each flag also has a permission node attatched to it (allowed by default) so if you don't want players changing flags in their towns you can prevent it.
- Or, can be set with the /town flag command
• Added the ability for mayors to unclaim all of their town claims at once with /unclaim all
• You can now view some statistics about HuskTowns on your network or server with /husktowns stats
• You can now reload the system caches with /husktowns status reload (Only do this if you need to as it takes some time and features will be disabled while stuff processes).
• Sneaking (holding SHIFT) while right clicking with the claim inspection tool will now highlight the borders of all nearby chunks
• The claim list's appearance has been improved
• General refactoring and performance enhancements, particularly to pulling information from the database
• Timestamps for things like claims and town founding information now show the time as well as the date
• Improvements to the reliability of the caching system cross-server
• Bump some dependencies (VaultAPI, HuskHomes)
• Made improvements to the way in which TAB completion is handled
• /town help is now more helpful, displaying a new dedicated list of the subcommands for /town
• Added debug command /town verbose [chat_message_type] to view action-vs-flag checks being performed in your world (use action_bar as the chat message type to avoid being spammed on busy servers!)
• API: Fixed an issue where fetching the members of a town through the cache would not work properly
• This also fixes some TAB completion issues

Config and upgrade notes (Important!)
If you are updating from a previous version of HuskTowns, please note that the old explosion settings and pvp settings (minus the friendly fire option, which has been moved to general options) have been removed as these are now handled with town flags - the ability to set the explosion setting based on surface level is no longer available - sorry about that.
I recommend regeneration the config file for this release AFTER YOU HAVE UPDATED (not before - otherwise it might not upgrade you correctly) to clean it up, though it's not required - you should just be able to drag+drop.
