YoTPA

Changelog v1.5.0

New Features:

• Automatic update checker — notifies OPs and admins on join when a new version is available
• Minecraft 1.21.x – 26.1.x support
• Support JDK 25 development toolchain with Java 21 bytecode output for full backwards compatibility

Improvements:

• Kotlin upgraded to 2.3.0 for proper JDK 25 toolchain support
• Async update check runs off the main thread — zero server tick impact

Server Compatibility:

• Fully Tested: Paper 1.21.x – 26.1.x
• Should Work: Purpur, Pufferfish, and any Paper fork
• Requires: Java 21+ (1.21.x servers) / Java 25+ (26.1.x servers)

Breaking Changes:

• None. Drop-in replacement for v1.4.0.

Migration from v1.4.0:

1. Stop your server
2. Replace YoTPA-1.4.0.jar with YoTPA-1.5.0.jar
3. Start your server — existing config.yml and messages.yml are fully preserved
