Releases: NighterDevelopment/SmartSpawner
SmartSpawner 1.6.4
Hotfix & compatibility update following v1.6.3
Bug Fixes
- Resolved plugin crash introduced in v1.6.3 when running on Minecraft 1.21.4 and below.
- Fixed hook integration with the Residence protection plugin.
- Enhanced explosion protection logic to correctly handle non-destructive explosions.
Wind Charge, Breeze Wind Charge, and player mace wind-burst blasts appear in the block list
but never actually destroy blocks. Spawner data is now always preserved for these explosion
types, regardless of theprotect_from_explosionsconfig value.
New Integrations

- Added support for SimpleClaimSystem 2.
(Thanks to Xyness, the plugin author, for the contribution.)
Performance
- Optimized the selling process for improved throughput and transaction security.
SmartSpawner 1.6.3
New Features
/ss near [radius] Command
Added a new command that scans for nearby spawners within a specified radius and highlights them through walls. All discovered spawners are displayed in a dedicated GUI for easy management.
Collect XP Button in Storage GUI
A new Collect XP button has been added directly to the spawner storage GUI, allowing players to collect accumulated experience without opening a separate menu.
Centralized Discord Logging Configuration
Discord logging is now fully configurable through a dedicated discord_logging.yml file. Each embed can be individually customized, giving server administrators complete control over the appearance and content of Discord notifications.
Language Changelog Files
Added language changelog files to make it easier for users to maintain and update their custom language translations across versions.
New API Events
- SpawnerTakeAllEvent - Fired when a player clicks the "Take All" button in the spawner storage GUI.
- SpawnerDropAllEvent - Fired when a player clicks the "Drop All" button in the spawner storage GUI.
Bug Fixes
- SimpleClaimSystem (Paid Version) - Fixed a crash that occurred when using the paid version of SimpleClaimSystem. SmartSpawner now only hooks into the free version of SimpleClaimSystem. (#185)
- Memory Leak in Sell Operation - Fixed a memory leak caused by
itemToRemovenot being properly cleared during sell operations in the spawner inventory. - ExcellentShop Sell Prices - Fixed sell prices not being loaded correctly when ExcellentShop is used as the price provider.
- Spawner Loss on Stack Limit Reduction - Fixed a bug where reducing the maximum stack limit would delete spawners that exceeded the new limit. Spawners are now properly preserved when the limit changes.
- Spawner Item Floating Near Bedrock - Fixed an issue where broken spawner items would float upward into a cave pocket above the player when mining near bedrock with no block directly behind the spawner.
Improvements

SmartSpawner - Version 1.5.6.2
Critical Dupe Patched
- Fixed item duplication exploit caused by race condition in VirtualInventory synchronization with storage GUI
Technical Details
The exploit involved using two game instances with swarm mode (custom mod) to create a race condition between spawner inventories. This has been completely patched by:
- Synchronizing inventory operations across all connected clients
- Adding transaction verification before committing item changes
- Implementing proper locking mechanisms for concurrent access
All users running v1.5.4.3 or lower should update immediately.
