EagleFactions-v1.0.0 (1.16.5)

🎉🥳 Welcome Eagle Factions 1.0.0 🥳 🎉

After many years in development Eagle Factions finally hit that version number. The 1.0.0 version.

Project started in the middle of 2016 where much was going on in my life and among other things I decided that I would want to start my journey with Java and so I began to develop Eagle Factions - a factions plugin for Sponge.

I loved to work on it everyday when I was coming back home after work. I can't describe the feeling I got when I saw first users who downloaded EF and were having fun with it, but that feeling was amazing.

I still remember all of you who talked with me on Discord about the plugin, about your reports, and feature ideas/requests. I learnt a lot and I am so much thankful for this experience. I would not be able to do it without you. ❤️

So, I want to thank everyone who participated in this project's journey, either by reporting issues, giving ideas or just by using it on your servers. This means sooo much for me! ❤️

I hope you are doing well and I wish you all the best! ❤️

👉 And of course, version 1.0.0 does not mean that EF will no longer be developed. Ports to newer MC versions will arrive soon and you are still welcome to report issues or suggest new features.

🙌 Now, let's go to the release notes below!
