## [Changes] - Improved error handling, plugin now also includes `/em debug`, so debugging shows will now be a lot easier! - Added show locking. Imagine you've accidentally made a show loop through a repeating commandblock, which spawns 50.000 entities every tick. You can now (un)lock that show using `/em (un)lock <category> <name>` or through the editor - Changed default Console Command effect message to be less confusing for new users ## [Bug fixes] - Fix ParticleLine using `TrailDuration` parameter instead of `ParticleDuration` parameter - Fix all particle effects correcting TrailDuration to 1 instead of 0 when null > Folia seemed to have a few problems in the last few releases, so beta9 doesn't support Folia. I will try to bring Folia support back though.

## [Changes] - Added `--deep` flag to the `/em stop` command to stop child shows which got activated by the main show ## [Bug fixes] - Fixed bug where using the suffix `.yml` and using no suffix would lead to different results when using the `/em stop` command

## [Changes] - Added Fountain Fan effect - Added extra exception checks to avoid unexpected behavior ## [Bug fixes] - Fixed the "Click to copy current value" text actually not copying

- Fixed a lot of effects not working because of scheduler change

- Fixed exception being thrown when TravelLocation was null on ParticlePath effect - Better exception handling for particle effects

## [Bug fixes] - Fix Particle Line effect to actually spawn particles - Fixed Folia compatibility - Removed FoliaLib dependency

## [Changes] - Added /em import command for presets - Added /em export command for presets - Changed falling block system to use display entities instead, the affected effects are: - Falling Block - Fountain - Fountain Line - Fountain Path - Fountain Dancing - Fountain Bloom - Changed particle effects to have more customizability, the affected effects are: - Particle - Particle Emitter - Particle Line - Particle Path - Some parameters may only show based on the value of other parameters, this reduces the amount of unnecessary parameters in the editor - Added /em loop to manage show looping through commands ## [Bug fixes] - Fix update version for spline type change - Fix bug where light level on Light effect didn't work - Fix Folia support
