Works for all versions with banners.
Tested 1.12.x without issues.
Allows players to create banners with more layers than vanilla. Uses existing crafting windows and recipes, no player commands, just the interfaces they are used to. Permissions can be assigned to limit ability to create better banners, including maximum number of layers and the ability to copy banners with additional layers. Does not have any effect on banners with six or less layers.
Installation
Just put the jar in your plugin folder, it creates a config file the first time you run it, with sensible settings. The config file has all the information needed to configure and the permissions list you will need.
Commands
- /betterbanner reload - just reloads the configuration file, only OP can run this
- /betterbanner ver - just lists the version number

- default: 6 - the number of layers someone without permissions can create
- basic: 8 - number of layers someone with the betterbanner.basic permission can create
- intermediate: 11 - number of layers someone with the betterbanner.intermediate permission can create
- advanced: 15 - number of layers someone with the betterbanner.advanced permission can create
