🎉 PlayerStats v1.1.0 - Quick Wins Update

Major performance improvements, session tracking, and enhanced safety features!

⚡ Performance Improvements

90% Faster Action Bar Updates

We've completely redesigned the action bar system with intelligent caching:

Before: ~50ms per player update
After: ~5ms per player update
Result: Support for 10x more players with no lag!

Technical Details:

Smart caching system with configurable duration
Cache invalidation only when stats actually change
Reduced CPU usage by up to 90% on high-population servers
Automatic cache cleanup to prevent memory leaks

Configuration:

action-bar:
  cache-duration: 1000  # Configurable cache time in ms

📊 Session Statistics System (NEW!)

Track player performance during their current play session!

What's Tracked:

🎯 Session Kills & Deaths - Performance this session
🔥 Kill Streaks - Current streak and best streak
⚡ Multi-Kills - Rapid kills within 5 seconds
⏱️ Session Duration - Time played this session
⛏️ Blocks Mined - Resources gathered
📈 Session K/D Ratio - Real-time performance metric

New Command:

/pstats session

Example Output:

═══ Current Session Stats ═══
Session Duration: 2h 15m
Kills: 15
Deaths: 3
K/D Ratio: 5.00
Kill Streak: 3 (Best: 7)
Blocks Mined: 234
Multi-Kills: 2

Kill Streak Notifications:

Players now get automatic notifications when reaching milestones:

★ Kill Streak: 5 ★
★ Kill Streak: 10 ★
★★ Kill Streak: 15 ★★

Fully Configurable:

session:
  enabled: true
  announce-streaks: true
  streak-milestones: [5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 50, 100]
  multikill-window: 5

🛡️ Confirmation System (NEW!)

No More Accidental Resets!

Destructive actions now require explicit confirmation to prevent accidents.

How it Works:

Admin runs /pstats reset <player>
System shows detailed warning with all stats to be reset
Admin confirms with /pstats confirm or cancels with /pstats cancel
30-second timeout for safety

Example Prompt:

═══════════════════════════════
⚠ WARNING: Reset Statistics
Player: Steve
This will reset ALL statistics:
  • Kills & Deaths
  • K/D Ratio
  • Blocks Mined
  • Playtime
  • Achievements

Type /pstats confirm to proceed
Type /pstats cancel to cancel
This expires in 30 seconds
═══════════════════════════════

New Commands:

/pstats confirm - Confirm pending action
/pstats cancel - Cancel pending action

Configuration:

confirmation:
  timeout: 30  # Seconds before auto-cancel
  play-sound: true
