dTournaments

1.2.4

Added

• Tournaments survive restarts and crashes - Running tournaments pick up where they left off after a restart or crash, with the same participants, scores and end time. Nothing is announced again and entry fees aren't charged again. If a tournament's end time passed while the server was down, it ends right after startup and pays out as usual. Scores are saved every 30 seconds, so a hard crash loses at most the last 30 seconds.
  • New resume-grace-hours option (default 24): a tournament that ended longer ago than this is closed without rewards instead.
• Weekly & monthly leaderboards - Rank players by points or wins earned since the last reset, next to the all-time leaderboard (which is never reset). Weekly resets Monday 00:00 and monthly on the 1st; both can be changed under leaderboard-periods. At each reset the top 3 are rewarded and announced. reward-metric: POINTS | WINS decides which ranking picks the top 3.
• /dt leaderboard rewards <weekly|monthly> - Set up weekly/monthly rewards (commands and items) in the same GUI as tournament rewards - dtournaments.admin.rewards
• Leaderboard holograms - dtournaments.admin.rewards
  • /dt leaderboard hologram paste <weekly|monthly> [name]
  • /dt leaderboard hologram remove <name>
  • /dt leaderboard hologram list
  • Shows the top 3 plus each viewer's own rank. Click it to flip to a second page, for example to list the rewards.
  • The layout lives in hologram-templates/, and edits apply to every pasted hologram.
  • Built in, no hologram plugin needed.
• Leaderboard GUI can now switch between All-Time, Weekly and Monthly
• New placeholders
  • %dtournaments_active_id% - the active tournament's ID (its file name, e.g. mine_diamond_ore), handy for conditions
  • %dtournaments_active_description% - the active tournament's description, e.g. for menu item lore
• Vanish support - ignore-vanished-players (on by default). Works with any vanish plugin that sets the standard "vanished" metadata (dVanish (yet to be released), PremiumVanish, SuperVanish, Essentials, CMI, ...). Vanished players aren't auto-enrolled, don't count towards min-players, and their score is frozen. Reappearing counts as joining. /dt forcejoin <id> all skips vanished players; force-joining one by name still works.
• Built-in anti-farm replaces the CoreProtect integration - Still stops players scoring by placing and re-breaking the same block, but no longer needs CoreProtect or a database lookup on every block break. It now covers block_place too.
  • Settings: anti-farm.enabled, window-seconds, max-tracked-blocks
  • Per tournament: anti-farm.enabled
• New config options and messages are added to your existing config.yml and translation files automatically on startup and /dt reload

Changed

• Only players who actually scored can place. A tournament where nobody scored now ends with no winner and pays no rewards, with a new "nobody scored" message. A player with 0 points can no longer take 2nd/3rd place behind real scorers. Everyone still gets a participation in their stats.
• worlds-blacklist edits now apply to running tournaments after /dt reload.

Removed

• CoreProtect soft-dependency. The old integrations.core-protect and per-tournament core-protect.enabled settings keep working, with a console warning, until you switch to anti-farm.

Upgrade note: older versions already saved tournament data, so a tournament that's running when you restart to install this update is resumed too. The same goes for a tournament cut short by an earlier restart, unless it has been started again since. If its end time already passed (within resume-grace-hours), it's finished and paid out instead.
