2 years ago Hey there,
Thanks for opening this issue! It's definitely strange that this is happening, as it definitely should not be. I'll investigate this thoroughly, as it could be an accidental breaking change on the Spigot, or Paper side of things.
For your later point regarding the torches not working after a plugin update, this is a known issue due to package renaming internally. I renamed the plugins package root from nl.thedutchmc to dev.array21, without thinking of the potential side effects of this. In a future update the storage format will likely switch to json or some other standard format, of course with an automatic conversion process.
Thanks again for bringing this issue to my attention, I appreciate it!

Describe the bug HaroTorch has been working flawlessly for us on our 1.17 server since we added it, been nearly a year I think. We just updated to Paper 1.18.1 and updated HaroTorch to 2.4.3, but now it seems HaroTorch isn't working anymore. They'll place just fine, torch file is created on the server, particle effects work, etc, no indication that anything is wrong, but mobs continue to spawn like it wasn't even there. I've tried changing various settings and restarting the server, even removed a few other plugins just in case, but nothing seems to make a difference. I'm stumped.
To Reproduce Unknown. Was working on Paper 1.17, but not on Paper 1.18.1. Nothing else really changed.
Version Minecraft version: Paper 1.18.1-152 HaroTorch version: 2.4.3 Java version: openjdk17-17.0.1+12.1 OS version: FreeBSD 13 (figured this may be important to know as I've had other plugins fail due to issues with FreeBSD's database tools)
Additional context We were on the older version of HaroTorch prior to updating to Paper 1.181 (from 1.17). After the upgrade, HaroTorch would not load and generated errors on the console. I saw there was a newer version so I downloaded and installed. Of course I didn't read the note about the config format change or the update process, so when the new one loaded but none of our existing torches worked, I just nuked the entire config folder and started fresh. Wasn't till another few days later that players informed me the torches still weren't working, even after replacing them all with newly crafted ones. I've checked for file-system permission issues and plugin conflicts, but haven't found anything helpful.
