Detect AFK Players

This version of the data pack maintains compatibility with previous versions but changes a lot internally.

This changelog doesn't go into much detail. For more information, read the documentation. A copy is included in a download of this data pack.

• Improved the responsiveness of the AFK detection

  • The data pack is performant enough that on a low spec system it can easily run for tens of players on every tick, but I'm only increasing the rate of checking from every 5 seconds to 1.5 seconds.

• Added an afk trigger

  • Admins can run /scoreboard players enable <username> afk to allow a player to manually become AFK

• Added a new afk.ticks scoreboard, which can be used to track the amount of ticks that players have been AFK

• A player exiting and re-joining the game is counted as active

• Players leaving the game can be detected by add-ons without implementing a custom scoreboard

• Added a configurable threshold for players becoming AFK, instead of hard-coding 3 minutes

  • An admin can run /scoreboard players set .threshold afk.settings <ticks>
  • 3600 ticks by default, which is 3 minutes

• Changed scoreboard objective names. The names documented in the documentation are now stable and part of the public API.
