ModernTags 2.2.0 adds update management, vanilla-style spectator visibility for modern tags, and bStats metrics, alongside tag rendering fixes.

What's New

  • Update management — Check for updates at startup, download them manually with /moderntags update, or enable automatic downloads. Downloaded updates are installed when the server restarts.
  • Invisible player tags in spectator mode — Viewers in spectator mode (GM3) can now see invisible players' tags with the modern renderer, just like vanilla names. Tags remain hidden from ordinary viewers.
  • bStats metrics — Added standard usage statistics. Metrics can be disabled in plugins/bStats/config.yml.

Startup checks are enabled by default; automatic downloads are disabled:

updates:
  check: true
  auto-download: false

Permission change: moderntags.admin replaces moderntags.reload and allows both reloads and update downloads. It is granted to operators by default; update any custom permission grants.

Fixes

  • Fixed the default player name briefly appearing when reloading ModernTags or when a player dies.
  • Fixed spectators being unable to see other spectators' tags.
  • Fixed missing legacy prefixes and suffixes after reloading while a player is invisible.
  • Fixed shared legacy tag updates making a tag visible again for viewers from whom it was hidden.

Dependencies

  • Updated MyLib to 7d2ccd9fd9 for update management.
  • Added bStats 3.2.1.
