EzRTP 2.1.0 Changelog

✨ Major Features

New Plugin API Module

• Public API for third-party plugins — New ezrtp-api artifact that allows other plugins to trigger random teleports programmatically
• Simple helper methods in EzRtpAPI for common use cases, with optional callbacks for async operations
• Bukkit Services Manager integration for clean dependency injection
• Minimal compile-time footprint — only ezrtp-api needs to be in the classpath of dependent plugins

Performance Monitoring & Observability

• Performance metrics collection — Track RTP operation timings, cache efficiency, chunk loads, and biome filter performance
• Slow RTP warnings — Automatically detect and log RTPs that exceed a configurable threshold (default 100ms)
• Percentile tracking — Snapshot P50, P75, P90, P95, P99 response times using a ring-buffer sample
• Periodic JSON export — Export metrics to JSON for integration with monitoring systems or manual analysis
• New /rtp stats performance subcommand to view current metrics in-game
• Configurable via plugins/EzRTP/performance.yml

Unsafe Location Monitoring

• Track rejection causes — Understand why locations are unsafe (void, liquid, lava, unsafe blocks, etc.)
• Per-cause statistics — Breakdown of all-time rejection counts by cause
• Optional warning system — Log or warn when unsafe rejection rate exceeds a threshold
• Periodic metrics export — Export rejection statistics to JSON
• New /rtp unsafe-stats subcommand to view unsafe location statistics in-game
• Configurable via plugins/EzRTP/unsafe-location-monitoring.yml

Improved Chunk Loading

• Paper 1.21+ async API detection — Automatically use World.getChunkAtAsync() on qualifying servers, bypassing the legacy tick-based throttle queue entirely
• Async/non-blocking chunks — When running on Paper/Folia 1.21+, chunk loads no longer compete for tick time
• Backward compatible — Legacy throttle queue is still available for older servers or when explicitly configured
• Smart auto-detection — Defaults to auto-detect mode, gracefully falls back to legacy queue if needed
• Configurable via chunk-loading.use-paper-async-api in rtp.yml

Biome Filtering Enhancements

• Master switch for biome system — New biomes.enabled setting disables the entire biome infrastructure (search, cache, rare biome tracking)
• Master switch for include/exclude filters — New biome-filtering.enabled separate from the overall biome system
• Automatic filter-aware performance budgets — When include/exclude biome filters are active but no explicit budget is configured, tighter limits are applied automatically (100ms wall-clock, 10 chunk-loads)
• New performance-budget section — Cleaner configuration path for search budgets (biome-filtering.performance-budget)
• Better timeout tracking — Biome filter timeouts are now monitored and reported in performance stats
• Async-mode toggle — Serialize biome searches through a dedicated executor thread instead of the common fork-join pool when async-mode: false

Rare Biome Hotspot Persistence

• MySQL-backed hotspot storage — Persist discovered rare-biome hotspots across restarts and share them between network nodes
• HikariCP connection pool — Efficient, non-blocking database operations
• Background loading — Hotspots are loaded asynchronously on startup
• Configurable persistence backend — Switch between in-memory only (none) or MySQL (mysql)
• Automatic table creation — Database schema is initialized automatically

🔧 Configuration Changes

New Configuration Files

• plugins/EzRTP/performance.yml — Performance monitoring and warning settings
• plugins/EzRTP/unsafe-location-monitoring.yml — Unsafe location rejection tracking and warnings

rtp.yml Changes

• biomes.enabled (new) — Master switch for the entire biome system (default: true)
• biome-filtering.enabled (new) — Separate toggle for include/exclude biome filters (default: true)
• biome-filtering.performance-budget (new, preferred) — Search budget configuration moved here for clarity
• search.* (legacy path still works) — Old budget location, now aliases to new path
• chunk-loading.use-paper-async-api (new) — Auto-detect or explicitly enable/disable Paper async chunk loading (default: auto-detect)
• chunk-loading.legacy-throttle (new) — Nested section for old throttle settings, replaces flat enabled/interval-ticks/max-chunks-per-tick
• heatmap.enabled — Toggle heatmap feature per world (was implicit before)
• safety.reject-liquid-above-nether (new, default: true) — Reject locations with lava above in the Nether
• safety.reject-liquid-above-overworld (new, default: true) — Reject locations with water above in the Overworld

Network Configuration (network.yml)

• Moved to plugins/EzRTP/network/ namespace for better organization

Dependency Updates

• Bukkit/Paper actions — Updated from v4 to v6
• Java compiler — Updated to 3.15.0
• bstats — Updated from 3.0.2 to 3.2.1
• WorldGuard — Updated from 7.0.9 to 7.0.16
• PlaceholderAPI — Updated from 2.11.7 to 2.12.2
• Adventure — Multiple library versions updated to 4.26.1
• HikariCP 7.0.2 — New dependency for MySQL hotspot storage
• JUnit & Mockito — Updated test dependencies

🐛 Bug Fixes & Improvements

GriefPrevention Compatibility

• Fixed reflection fallback to handle multiple getClaimAt() method signatures across GriefPrevention versions

Import/Package Reorganization

• Configuration classes reorganized into semantic packages: biome.*, effects.*, network.*, safety.*, teleport.*, gui.*, performance.*
• Old import paths still work through backwards-compatible re-exports (zero breaking changes)

Code Quality

• Introduced ConfigurationDefaults class to centralize all default numeric constants
• Improved documentation and JavaDoc throughout
• Better error handling and logging in reflection-based code (ChunkyAPI, GriefPrevention, PlaceholderAPI)

Platform Abstraction

• Enhanced PlatformScheduler — New methods executeGlobal(), executeGlobalDelayed(), executeRegionDelayed() for cleaner code
• Folia compatibility — All scheduler calls now route correctly on Folia's regionalized threads
• Centralized capability detection — New PlatformRuntimeCapabilitiesDetector.isPaper121PlusAsync() for version-aware optimization

API Extensions

• RandomTeleportService now implements the new com.skyblockexp.ezrtp.api.TeleportService interface for type-safe service registration

📊 New Statistics & Metrics

Tracked in RtpStatistics

• Timing percentiles — P50, P75, P90, P95, P99 milliseconds
• Min/max operation times — Absolute bounds across the ring buffer
• Slow operation count — Number of RTPs exceeding the slow-threshold
• Chunk loads breakdown — Total, async, and sync counts
• Biome rejection counts — Total rejections and per-RTP max
• Biome filter timeouts — Number of times a search was terminated due to biome rejection limit

bStats Charts (New)

• unsafe_location_cause — Top rejection cause (pie chart)

🎮 New Commands

/rtp stats performance

• Shows real-time performance metrics including response times, cache hit rate, chunk loading breakdown, and recommendations

/rtp unsafe-stats

• Shows all-time unsafe location rejection statistics broken down by cause

📝 Configuration Validation

New Warnings

• Missing protection providers — Single consolidated warning when all configured protection plugins are unavailable
• Heatmap disabled check — /rtp heatmap now validates that heatmap.enabled: true before proceeding
• Chunky reflection fallback — Graceful degradation if Chunky API changes or is unavailable

♻️ Removed/Deprecated

• ChunkLoadingSettings legacy flat-format constructors are deprecated (but still work)
• No breaking changes to public APIs — All existing plugin code continues to function

For Server Owners

Update Guide:

1. Back up your plugins/EzRTP/ folder
2. Replace the EzRTP .jar file
3. Restart the server (config files will be auto-generated)
4. Optionally enable performance or unsafe-location monitoring in the new .yml files
5. For Paper 1.21+ users, chunk-loading will automatically switch to async mode (no config needed)

Recommendations:

• Enable performance monitoring if you want insight into RTP responsiveness and cache efficiency
• Enable unsafe-location monitoring if you're debugging biome filter issues or want to understand rejection patterns
• Upgrade to Paper 1.21+ to get true non-blocking chunk loading (no configuration required; auto-detected)

• Fixed cached fallback when avoiding claims fails
• Upgraded version to 2.0.1
