AsyncWorldEdit

Description

This plugin has only one function: eliminate the lag caused by the WorldEdit! This is done by replacing the WorldEdits session with an special asynchronous one. All the block drawing is done in packages. The package size and how often the blocks are drawn are configurable in the config. AsyncWorldEdit is not a reimplementation of WorldEdit! It attaches the original WorldEdit API and WorldEdit classes and tries to fix the lags. There fore you have access to all the WorldEdit operations, and all those operations work exactly like in the original WorldEdit. So basically you get the same commands, same permissions and the same experience. In addition to that if WorldEdit team releases a new feature, fixes a bug all you need to do is update WorldEdit and AWE will do its job as usual.

The premium version
Starting from the 1'st of January 2018 the AsyncWorldEdit Premium and the free versions are again one software. All the changes and features added to the premium are now available for everyone.

Ok so wher's the cache? First and most important, you won't receive support for the free version. Basically your on your own. All the updates to the premium version will eventually be added to the free version (it might be days it might be weeks) after the premium release. First the changes will be available as source code. The JAR release for the free version might be released might not. It might skip some versions, it might be released the same day as the premium, it might be released after couple of weeks. The source code will be provided without compilation instructions and without DRM modules.

So what do I get when I buy the premium version? First thin, and most important, you will get support (starting from simple trouble shooting to help in working with the source code). Secondly you won't need to build the jar file by yourself, you will get a pre-build jar file. WARNING: You can download a jar file of the plugin only from the Premium download page, if you got it from other source it is an illegal copy (providing downloads for the jar breaks the license).

Installation tutorial
Installation

To install the plugin simply follow those steps (steps 5-6 are optional):

1. download and install <a href="https://dev.bukkit.org/projects/worldedit?gameCategorySlug=bukkit-plugins&amp;projectID=31043" target="_blank" class="externalLink" rel="nofollow">WorldEdit 7.1.0
2. buy the plugin on spigotmc.org
3. download AsyncWorldEdit.jar
   
4. install AsyncWorldEdit (the injector is no longer needed)
   
5. (o) to enable blocks loggin and blocks access control download BlocksHub
6. (o) the appropriate bridge for your progress display plugin (For example: if you want to use ActionBarAPI you need AsyncWorldEdit-ActionBarAPI)
7. (o) if you would like to use the built in bos bar please consider installing this plugin: AsyncWorldEdit - Boss Bar
   
8. restart server
9. edit the config file
10. restart server or do /AWE reload

Upgrading from older version:
If you are upgrading from an older version of AWE in most cases you don't need to do anything special. Although if you are using an old version that still has the injector you need to remove it. In addition its a good practice to remove the AWE bridge plugins (fund in /plugins/AsyncWorldEdit/plugins/) and the installed file.
