Hey all!
I've been working hard the last few weeks getting everything in line for the server, we're progressing slowly but it should start picking up in a few weeks now that I've finished updating our older plugins.
Just to recap, here's what I've done
This has been my focus for a while, and now that these plugins are up to par, I'll be free to work on making some more in the near future, hopefully getting another 2-3 out in the next month.
We've also updated to a new anti-cheat plugin, as well as upped our x-ray protection, this should help ensure that everyone on our server has a fair playing field no matter their playstyle.
As far as features go, we've added some recently as well!
Eclipses free-for-all PvP arena has been completed and is now open to add, use /pa ffa join in order to play. The kits are still needing to be balanced, and we'll try to get that done soon.
And here are some screenshots of it

As a reward for creating this arena, Eclipse has received a 500x500 territory in the main world, any town can create an arena and receive a similar reward, if you're interested feel free to contact me.
As mentioned previously, NPC shops have been added back, with more coming soon. Many shopkeepers such as the florist, baker, butcher, and blacksmith's assistant have been given shops such as these, where you can buy and sell items to the server. Please note these prices are meant as a 'last resort', you should always check player shops, they will almost always have a better deal than these guys.

Guards at spawn have also been buffed, receiving more HP, armor, and damage. They will in the near future be buffed again to compete with the end-game armor many have acquired. Speaking of NPCs, we've also added back NPC talking, simply download and apply our NPC resource pack, then right-click any NPC at spawn. Be sure your sound is on!
A long awaited addition, banks are ready to be added, but for some reason they aren't working anymore. I'll announce it later when they actually work..

A preview of something pretty cool that Shopkeepers will be receiving soon, are scratch cards! These are currently still being developed, and will be released when rewards and card tiers can be finalized.
Scratch cards are special items that when used, will spawn a map in your inventory, but it isn't just any old map! If you hold shift, and move your mouse around, it will 'scratch' away part of the map, allowing you to win rewards, or not.
Shopkeepers will be able to purchase these in bulk and sell them to others on the server, or use them themselves.

Lastly, we will be holding a Halloween event on the 29th through the 31st, we'll reveal some more info a few days before the event takes place!
Here are a few rewards you'll be able to receive during the event
Hope to see you all on!

Just to recap, here's what I've done

- Rewrote titles plugin to sync between servers
- Rewrote server messages plugin to cover more death messages as well as function better
- Created NPC plugin to re-add talking NPCs as well as NPC trading at spawn
