NMSAdvanced

This repository includes a variety of features and creations relating to NMS plugin development. A big part of the repo is code I have written while watching MineAcademy's NMSAdvanced course. This is a constant work-in-progress repo and new features are often being pushed.

Information

The NMSAdvanced repository is a Spigot 1.8.8 plugin including everything from particles, animations, commands, NPCs, NBT data, GUIs and much more. As I build onto this project, I will keep updating the features section down below. The plugin does not serve any direct purpose - it is a general collection of things I have built that requires the use of NMS during my journey of learning the advanced parts of plugin development.

"Fork if you want to learn!"

This project covers a wide aspect of NMS topics and features. Quality has been focused over quantity to provide as many different NMS topics as possible but few at each one. As a bonus, the project is very well commenteted which makes it a great starting point if you are trying to learn NMS. Fork it, view, experiment, learn!

Certain classes/methods may be documented with '@author Liam'. Code from there is not taken from the course but instead developed by me.
