✦ New Features
1. FFA Warmup
- Configurable PvP cooldown at the start of FFA matches
- Players can't damage each other for X seconds, giving everyone time to spread out
- Perfect for arenas with fewer spawns than players
- Set ffa-warmup: 5 in config
- Teams mode is unaffected
2. Draw Instant Teleport
- Draws (time limit or mutual kills) now teleport players back instantly by default
- No more waiting around to "collect items" when there's nothing to collect
- Configurable via draw-end-delay
- 0 = instant
- Set your own value in seconds
- -1 = same as normal end delay
3. Per-Creator Parties
- Queue key is now kit:mode:creatorUUID, every party create is unique
- Join a specific player's party with /flexparty join <playerName>
- Click-to-join broadcast uses /flexparty join <creatorName>
- Tab completion shows active party creators
- /flexparty info now shows the creator name per party
- New message: party-not-found
4. Customizable Join Broadcast
- The party announcement message is now fully configurable
- Hide the command text and show only "Click to Join" by setting command-suffix: "" under announcement: in config
- Or customize it with the %command% placeholder
✦ Changes
Simplified Join Command
- /party join risk-inventory and /party join <kit> [ffa|teams] have been removed
- These paths were accidentally creating new parties instead of joining existing ones
- Now /party join <playerName> is the only way to join, just type the host's name or click the broadcast message
- All party settings (kit, mode, player count, risk inventory) are chosen by the host when they create the party through /party create
✦ Bug Fixes
- Fixed /party join paths accidentally creating new parties instead of joining existing ones
- Fixed empty lore lines, if a lore line in the config was set to "", it was showing as a blank line in the GUI. Empty lore values are now hidden automatically
✦ New Config Options
Auto-migrated on reload, no manual edits required.

v1.3: Update v1.3
24 May 2026
DuelsFlexParty v1.3.0
Party Alias Override, Time Limits, Whitelist/Blacklist & Critical Fixes
Party Alias Override, Time Limits, Whitelist/Blacklist & Critical Fixes
✦ New Features
1. /party Command Override
- /party now overrides the Duels plugin's built-in /party command
- Toggle with party-alias-override in config
- Lets players use the shorter alias without conflict
2. Match Time Limit System
- Set match-time-limit in minutes (0 = off)
- If nobody wins within the time limit, the match ends as a draw
- Prevents stalled or AFK matches from running forever
3. Whitelist & Blacklist Command Restriction
- Command restriction now supports both modes via command-restriction.mode
- blacklist = block only listed commands (existing behavior)
- whitelist = allow only listed commands, block everything else
- Operators bypass all command restrictions during queue and match
4. Fully Customizable Help & Usage Messages
- All help and usage messages are now editable in config
- %cmd% placeholder support for dynamic command names
- Match your server's branding and language
5. Configurable Item Drops on Death
- Item drops on death are now configurable via death-spectate.drop-items
- Decide whether eliminated players drop their items or vanish them
6. Configurable Match End Delay
- Set match-end-delay in seconds to control the wait before players teleport back
- Lets you tune the post-match window to taste
✦ Changes
- Spectator-on-death removed eliminated players are now teleported back to spawn immediately (see Bug Fixes for why)
- /flexparty spec leave command removed no longer needed with spectator mode gone
- Risk inventory selected button changed from green wool to red wool for better visual feedback
✦ Bug Fixes
- Fixed teammates being able to kill each other during match end delay (2v2 friendly fire exploit)
- Fixed spectators spawning at world spawn instead of staying in the arena (feature then removed entirely)
- Fixed teammates spawning scattered in Teams mode, now grouped using spawn clustering
- Fixed item drops being cleared even in risk-inventory matches
✦ New Config Options
YAML
party-alias-override: true # override Duels' /party command
match-time-limit: 0 # minutes, 0 = no limit
match-end-delay: 5 # seconds before teleport back
command-restriction.mode: blacklist # blacklist or whitelist
death-spectate.drop-items: false # item drops on deathUpdate now to lock down command abuse, end stalled matches cleanly, and fix the 2v2 friendly fire exploit.
All new options have safe defaults, existing setups continue working untouched.

- GUI toggle button in party creation screen (slot 20)
- Command: /flexparty join risk-inventory [ffa|teams]
- Config toggle: risk-inventory.enabled: true/false

- Blocks commands like /tp, /home, /spawn, /warp while in queue or match
- Configurable list in config.yml → blocked-commands
- Add or remove any command from the list
- Custom deny message: messages.command-blocked
3. Kit Mode Toggle
- Enable or disable kit selection entirely: match-modes.kits: true/false
- When false, risk-inventory is forced and the kit selector is hidden from the GUI
- Works just like the existing match-modes.ffa / match-modes.teams toggles
4. Customizable GUI
- Auto-hide disabled options: gui.creation.auto-hide-disabled: true makes buttons for disabled features (FFA, Teams, Risk Inventory, Kit) automatically vanish from the menu

- Default slot layout:
- teams-mode: 11

- risk-inventory: 20
- kit: 22
- decrease: 30
- count: 31
- increase: 32
- create: 40
- Change any slot number to rearrange your party creation menu
5. WorldGuard Region Restriction
- Restrict party create/join to a specific WorldGuard region
- Config:
YAMLworldguard: enabled: false required-region: "lobby" - Soft dependency, works without WorldGuard installed (restriction silently skipped)
- Custom deny message: messages.not-in-region (supports %region% placeholder)
6. Spectator Mode on Death
- Eliminated players enter Spectator mode in the arena (like the Duels plugin) instead of teleporting to spawn
