• rewrite structure of config file
  
  Version 1.11.2
  

• 
  
• Added 1.8 mobs Enderman, Cave Spider, Silverfish
  
• Added passive mobs Chicken, Cow, Pig, Sheep, Squid
  
  Version 1.11.1
  

• 
  
• Fixed an exception that would occur if the player dies without being damaged first (such as by a rogue plugin)
  
  Version 1.11.0
  

• 
  
• Added support for MC 1.8.1 death messages (by removing them)
  
• Added new MC 1.8.1 items
  
• Added support for STARVATION DamageCause
  
  Version 1.10.0
  

• 
  
• Added support for SUICIDE DamageCause, mainly for the /suicide and /kill default commands.
  
  Version 1.9.1
  

• 
  
• Added support for world names in death messages. Use %w in your messages and it'll get replaced with the world.
  
  Version 1.9.0
  

• 
  
• Now supports per-world messaging! Set options.serverBroadcast to FALSE to force HeroicDeath to only send its messages to the world in which the death occurred.
  
• Add the name of a world to options.worlds.quiet to prevent ANY HeroicDeath message from being sent to that world (even if options.serverBroadcast is true!)
  
• Add the name of a world to options.worlds.loud to send ALL HeroicDeath messages to that world (even if options.serverBroadcast is false and the death didn't occur on that world)
  
• Fixed yet another projectile bug, this should be the last time for now!
  
• Added 1.7 items to the default-generated heroicdeath.items file (took long enough!)
  
  Version 1.8.4
  

• 
  
• Fixed a bug with projectile detection.
  
  Version 1.8.3
  

• 
  
• Added config option "options.useDisplayName" to allow admins to choose whether or not to display a player's set display name.
  
• Removed references to deprecated event EntityDamageByProjectileEvent
  
  Version 1.8.2
  

• 
  
• Made HeroicDeathEvent cancellable; cancelling the event prevents broadcast of the message. This is important if another plugin wants to selectively disable death messages.
  
• Made DeathCertificate in HeroicDeathEvent modifiable via a setter. This is important if another plugin wants to selectively change the death message.
  
  Version 1.8.1
  

• 
  
• Improved damage type detection. This is kind of advanced; basically I only record a damage type if it would put your health at or under 0. Now I additionally throw it out after 20 server ticks (1 seconds) as stale data, allowing a new damage type to be overwritten, and I further won't allow a damage type to be written if it has a pending record, UNLESS that pending record is for Lava or Lightning (whose readings are frequently thrown off by fire).
  
  Version 1.8.0
  

• 
  
• Added Lightning messages.
  
• Removed explicit references to ISO-8851-1
  
  Version 1.7.3
  

• 
  
• Added world to data log.
  
• Removed death dupe bugfix (long-since implemented in CraftBukkit)
  
  Version 1.7.2
  

• 
  
• Bugfix: Fixed TNT showing up as Creeper death.
  
  Version 1.7.1
  

• 
  
• Added Wolf messages.
  
• Added author to plugin.yml
  
  Version 1.7.0
  

• 
  
• Updated to RB 602 - WON'T WORK ON CB 560-
  
• Added DamageType.VOID; use the ":void" label in "heroicdeath.messages" to customize your void deaths.
  
  Version 1.6.1
  

• 
  
• Bugfix: Changed HashMap in HeroicDeathItems to use the item as a key and not its name, thanks MadJawa.
  
  Version 1.6.0
  

• 
  
• Added support for mob-specific death messages, like the creeper already has
  
• If a monster does not have any specific death messages defined, it will use a random "Monsters" message
  
• To add mob-specific messages, edit your "heroicdeath.messages" file and add a new label with the mob's default name. If you changed the mob names in your config.yml, use its default name for your label, and use %a to insert your localized mob names! Example:
  [SPOILER]
  :Skeleton %d got boned by %a :Spider %d was wrapped in silk by %a :Zombie %d's brains tasted good to %a :Creeper %d was %a bombed %d hugged a %a
  [/SPOILER]
  [*]Valid labels are :Ghast, :Slime, :Zombie, :PigZombie, :Spider, :Skeleton, :Giant, :Creeper (you should already have :Creeper)
  [*]Bugfix: Fixed creeper messages for users who changed the default name of the creeper mob.
  [*]Added the new 1.3 items to the heroicdeath.items file. If you want these to be added to your items file, just delete it and it'll be recreated from default. Keep in mind that the heroicdeath.items file only specifies *custom* item names; if it encounters an item that isn't in the file, it'll use that item's default name.
  [/LIST]
  Version 1.5.1
  

• 
  
• Fixed duping bug for admins who are running CB <521
  
  Version 1.5.0
  

• 
  
• Added support for customizing monster names. Upon next reload, your config file will be extended with the default monster names, which you can then edit as desired.
  
  Version 1.4.4
  

• 
  
• Bugfix: Fixed creepers returning the generic monster message.
  
• Changed name of custom event thrown by HeroicDeath to "HeroicDeathEvent"
  
  Version 1.4.3
  

• 
  
• Added an "events.only" configuration option for plugins that use HeroicDeathEvent: set this option "true" to disable HeroicDeath messages (and send only events on death). Again, not a required update for server admins unless you want to run a plugin that supports this.
  
  Version 1.4.2
  

• 
  
• Added Dutchy's implementation of a custom "HeroicDeathEvent" event that is called when a player dies, containing the DeathCertificate. Other plugin developers can use this to easily receive more detailed information about a player death than is provided in ENTITY_DEATH alone.
  
  Version 1.4.1
  

• 
  
• Bugfix: Removed Stupidly Long Constructor to fix WARNING logs in CB Jenkins build 45+ (Bamboo 400+ I believe)
  
  Version 1.4.0
  

• 
  
• Updated for compatibility with new CraftBukkit event handling in 349+
  
• DO NOT download this version if you are using a CraftBukkit bamboo build of 348 or below!
  
  Version 1.3.1
  

• 
  
• Bugfix: Fixed an unhandled null in death reporting, only reachable when a user dies with no known cause.
  
• No config changes, download JAR only to upgrade. Tested against bamboo builds 211, 231, 254, and 302.
  
  Version 1.3.0
  

• 
  
• Added support for logging. Death data and death messages can be logged.
  
• Death data log stores Victim, Killer, Murder Weapon, Cause of Death, Location, Timestamp, and Death Message
  
• Death messages log just stores death messages (intended for ease of reading), but can optionally be timestamped
  
• As always, users upgrading only need the .JAR and defaults will be chosen, but it is recommended to add the following block to your config.yml to configure logging options:
  [SPOILER]<<code>>

1. Logging Preferences:
   1. data: true to log a serialized object representing all the relevant information associated with a death
   2. messages: true to log death messages (as output to the server) to a separate file
   3. time: Whether or not to timestamp messages (if logging messages), and what timestamp format to use for data/messages
      1. stamp: true to timestamp messages
      2. format: Uses format strings from Java SimpleDateFormat. Read all here: http://download.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/docs/api/java/text/SimpleDateFormat.html
   4. files: Filenames to store data/messages in. A server admin could ostensibly change this value daily/weekly/monthly for collection of timed logs
      1. data: Data storage filename
      2. messages: Messages storage filename log: data: true messages: true time: stamp: true format: MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss z files: data: death_data.log messages: death_messages.log<</code>>[/SPOILER]

[*]Example Data Log output:

[SPOILER]<<code>>#HeroicDeath Data Log - This file stores serialized data on player deaths in the following order:

1. Victim|Killer|Murder Weapon|Cause of Death|Location|Timestamp|Death Message
2. Murder weapon is in the format TypeIDxData, so Red Wool would be 35x14
3. Location is in the format (x, y, z), and represents where the victim died. SquallSeeD31|Monster||ENTITY_ATTACK|(-112.0,66.0,184.0)|02/09/2011 22:18:09 PST|SquallSeeD31 got shot by a dispenser.

   [/LIST]
   Version 1.2.0
   

• 
  
• Added support for Dispensers! As always, a default message will be used if you do not supply custom messages.
  
• Use the ":Dispenser" label to add dispenser messages in your heroicdeath.messages file.
  
• Due to Bukkit limitations, it is not possible to know who triggered the dispenser, so the only usable token is %d
  
• Format Example:
  
  :Dispenser %d got shot by a dispenser. %d did not need a dispenser there. %d was dispensed of.
