# MimiKoth v1.18.4 — Performance & Stability Update This update focuses on **performance improvements, stability enhancements, and hologram-related fixes**, providing a smoother and more efficient experience when managing multiple KOTH events. --- ## Performance Improvements - **Optimized BossBars** — Reduced redundant player synchronization and unnecessary title, progress, and visual updates. - **Improved Hologram Performance** — Minimized repeated text generation and placeholder processing, especially for inactive KOTHs. - **Optimized Scoreboards** — Prevented unnecessary updates when titles and displayed information remain unchanged. - **Refined Task Scheduling** — Separated capture detection from visual updates to reduce unnecessary processing. - **Better Multi-KOTH Performance** — Improved efficiency when multiple KOTH events are active or inactive simultaneously. ## Bug Fixes & Stability - Fixed hologram flickering and disappearing when multiple KOTHs are located close to each other. - Improved hologram cleanup to prevent accidental removal of displays belonging to neighboring KOTHs. - Improved hologram handling during chunk loading and unloading. - Improved internal hologram lifecycle management to reduce duplicate entities. ## Compatibility - Added support for **Minecraft 26.3**. --- ### Additional Notes - No configuration changes are required. - Existing configuration values remain unchanged. - Performance optimizations preserve existing countdowns, capture mechanics, and visual behavior. - Thanks Ashu!

# MimiKoth v1.17.0 - Folia Support, TAB Fix, KOTH Flares & More! A new major update is here! We have resolved critical performance issues, fixed scoreboard flickering conflicts, and introduced exciting new interactive mechanics: ## What's New: - Folia & Multi-Platform Support: Fully compatible with Folia, Purpur, and Paper using asynchronous chunk loading and regional thread schedulers. - KOTH Flares: Invoke KOTH events using a custom-configured glowing item. Command: /koth flare <koth> <player> [amount]. - Flickering Fix (TAB Compatibility): Resolved the scoreboard flickering issue when using external scoreboard/TAB plugins. - MiniMessage & HEX Support: Native support for gradients, rainbows, and direct hexadecimal colors (e.g. #ffaa00 or <#ffaa00>). - Scoreboard PlaceholderAPI: Fully evaluates PAPI placeholders on the sidebar (in both active and idle worlds). - Update Checker: Lightweight, asynchronous check for updates at startup (can be toggled in config.yml). We highly recommend updating to ensure optimal performance and a flicker-free scoreboard! :3
