Better Trial Chambers

[2.0.7] - 2026-07-19

Changed

• Anonymous usage metrics now use FastStats instead of bStats. The same handful of aggregate numbers are collected as before — which database backend you run, whether auto-discovery is on, glow mode, a rough chamber-count bracket, and which premium add-ons are installed. No player data. metrics.enabled: false in config.yml still switches it off for this plugin, and there's still a server-wide off switch for every plugin that uses it: enabled=false in plugins/faststats/config.properties (the equivalent of the old plugins/bStats/config.yml).
• Nothing is sent the first time you start up. FastStats writes its opt-out file on the first run and waits until the next server restart before sending anything, so you get the chance to turn it off first. A new install showing no data for one boot is expected.
• BTC no longer writes to plugins/bStats/. If no other plugin on your server uses bStats, that folder can be deleted.

Added

• Optional error reporting — off unless you turn it on. Set metrics.error-reporting: true in config.yml and BetterTrialChambers will report its own errors automatically, so bugs get found and fixed without you having to notice and file a report. It stays off by default because sending error reports is a bigger step than anonymous counters, so it should be your choice. When enabled: only this plugin's own errors are sent — other plugins' errors are never captured, even when they happen at the same moment — and before anything leaves your server, IP addresses, file paths containing your username, database credentials and player UUIDs are stripped out and replaced with placeholders. Player names, chat, inventories and world data are never included, and routine shutdown/reload cancellations are filtered out rather than reported as errors. To switch it off across every FastStats plugin at once, set submitErrors=false in plugins/faststats/config.properties.
