    Fly
    • /fly on will now show your speed (ie: your donation level)
    • Attempting to hold CTRL while flying will cause your player to stop moving
      • I wanted to just cancel the sprint event but there's a bug in spigot that ignores the cancel. As a workaround I slow your player to a crawl until you stop sprinting.
    • Donation level is now acquired a different way that should be more reliable.
      • Please send imdeity a forum convo if /fly shows an incorrect donation level.
    Res Info
    • Donation level is now acquired a different way that should be more reliable.
      • Please send imdeity a forum convo if /res info shows an incorrect donation level.
    Town Info
    • /town info now contains a link to the town's portal page.
    Horses
    • You can no longer test ride a horse if you're already in a vehicle.
      • hopefully this eliminates the wandering test horses at the market.

    I like what you've done so far btarb! All is looking great :)

    However, one small issue is that I noticed that now the balance of a town no longer shows in the /t info. I don't know if this is something you removed or if it was accidentally taken out.

    Thanks for the great catch, Qazz. I accidentally cut that line instead of doing a copy. It became my template for the portal page line :D You'll have it back after the next restart.

    Side note.. I just disabled the ability to hold CTRL to sprint while flying. It was used as a way to bypass the flight speed assigned to your donation level. Your player will now stop moving if you try to hold CTRL while flying.

    The jittery sprinting didn't exactly get rave reviews. I spent some time refactoring it to make it less abrasive to everyone. It will now slow you down to a crawl rather than make you jitter. Once you stop sprinting it will reinstate your typical fly speed.

    This feels like a step backwards for me. (trying so hard not to sound ungrateful for your hard work btarb)

    Edit: after playing for a bit longer i think i might get used to it after a while, just hard to break the habit of sprinting.

    That depends on perspective.. sure, you lost the ability to sprint.. BUT you can now fly faster than you could before MC added the sprint+fly feature! :)

    I do hope to get rid of the whole 'slow down to a crawl' feature and simply cancel your sprint for you. I'll create a ticket for Spigot once i get home.
