# Ultimate Broadcast 2.4.0 — the rescue release > This update fixes the two reasons 2.1.0–2.3.0 lost most of their downloads: **a broken default config that could stop the plugin from starting**, and **missing Minecraft version tags** that hid the newest builds from 1.21.5+ servers. It also adds the features players and server owners actually asked for. --- ## 🔥 Critical fixes ### The plugin could fail to start on a fresh install `config.yml` shipped in 2.1.0–2.3.0 had `gui.title` indented with **three spaces** while its siblings used two. Bukkit refuses to parse that file, so the plugin could disable itself on first start — which is why 2.1.0 only ever reached a handful of downloads while 2.0.2 kept being downloaded. **2.4.0:** * ships a valid configuration, * detects the exact broken layout on existing installs, * writes a timestamped backup (`config.backup-<date>.yml`), * repairs the indentation in place, * and starts normally. Your comments and custom values are preserved — the file is fixed, not replaced. ### The newest builds were invisible on modern Minecraft 2.3.0 was published with `game_versions` ending at **1.21.4**, even though 2.0.2 supported up to 1.21.11. Servers on 1.21.5–26.3 could not install the newer version at all. **2.4.0 is listed for every version from 1.21 through 26.3**, verified on Paper 1.21.4, Paper 26.3 and Folia 26.3. --- ## 🛠 Other bugs fixed | Bug | Impact | Fix | | --- | --- | --- | | `Sound.valueOf(...)` used at runtime | On 1.21.4+ `Sound` became an interface, so the call throws `NoSuchMethodError` and sounds break | Registry-based resolver with enum fallback and a per-name cache | | MySQL schema used `AUTOINCREMENT` and SQLite-only `ON CONFLICT` | "MySQL support" could never create its tables | Dialect-aware DDL, portable upserts, epoch-millis timestamps | | SQLite driver class pointed at a relocated package | Database could silently stay uninitialised | Storage rewritten without shading/relocation, verified on startup | | GUI listener cancelled **every** inventory click on the server | Players could not use any other plugin's GUI | Clicks are only handled when our own `InventoryHolder` is open | | GUI item names were `Component.toString()` dumps | Menus displayed `TextComponentImpl{...}` garbage | Real Adventure components for titles, names and lore | | Scheduled entries were loaded from config **and** database | Every reload duplicated announcements | Config is the single source of truth | | `random-messages.interval-minutes` and per-message `weight` ignored | Random pool fired on the scheduler interval and picked uniformly | Dedicated weighted rotation on its own interval | | PlaceholderAPI only applied when a sender existed | `%player%`/PAPI placeholders were never resolved in scheduled messages | Rendered per recipient, for every source | | Countdown/actionbar required a player sender | Console could not start a countdown | Works from console | | Titles used legacy strings | Hex gradients turned into `§x` gibberish | Adventure `Title` with full RGB | | Network relay re-broadcast its own messages | Duplicate announcements across servers | Message IDs with a dedupe window | | SQL ran on the server thread | TPS spikes when history/preferences were written | Single background writer thread | --- ## ✨ New features ### 🔔 Player subscription centre * `/broadcast toggle` — master opt-out. * `/broadcast toggle events` — per-category opt-out. * `/broadcast settings` — GUI with a toggle per category. * Configurable categories with display names, descriptions, default state and permission. * Preferences stored in SQLite/MySQL and loaded asynchronously on join. * Filtering happens **before** rendering, so opted-out players cost nothing. ### 💬 Discord mirroring (no bot required) * Webhook-based, runs on its own daemon thread. * Rate-limit aware, retries transient failures, respects `429`. * Choose which events mirror: `manual`, `scheduled`, `random`, `countdown`. * Configurable username, avatar, colour, footer and optional `@everyone` for manual broadcasts. * `/broadcast discord test` verifies the setup. ### 🎛 Five delivery channels `/broadcast send <chat|actionbar|title|subtitle|bossbar> <message>` — plus the legacy `/broadcast title`, `/broadcast actionbar` shortcuts. ### 🧵 True Folia support * Runtime Folia detection. * Global region scheduler for timers, async scheduler for storage, per-entity scheduler for player messages. * Verified on Folia 26.3: timers fire on the region scheduler and messages are dispatched per player. ### 🧠 Delivery guard * Duplicate window (proxy echo protection). * Hard per-second cap. * TPS-aware effects (chat still sends, sounds/particles pause). * Minimum-player rule. * Per-player cooldowns for scheduled entries. ### ⚙️ Operations * `/broadcast stats` — totals, players reached, duplicate drops, storage backend, Discord health, live TPS. * `/broadcast history` — last 20 announcements from the database. * `/broadcast list` — next run time for every scheduled entry. * `settings.debug: true` logs exactly why an announcement was skipped. * Safe `/broadcast reload` that restarts schedulers without duplicating tasks. ### 🔌 PlaceholderAPI New placeholders, all served from memory: `%ultimatebroadcast_total%`, `%ultimatebroadcast_scheduled%`, `%ultimatebroadcast_delivered%`, `%ultimatebroadcast_duplicates%`, `%ultimatebroadcast_enabled%`, `%ultimatebroadcast_cooldown%`, `%ultimatebroadcast_subscribed_<category>%`. --- ## ⚡ Performance & reliability * **No SQL on the server thread.** History, stats and preferences are queued to a single daemon writer; SQLite runs in WAL mode with a single writer, eliminating `database is locked` under load. * **Messages without placeholders are parsed once per broadcast**, not once per player. * **One 1-second ticker** replaces one Bukkit task per scheduled entry; intervals no longer drift and `/reload` cannot pile up duplicate tasks. * **Sound and particle lookups are cached** after the first resolve. * **Effects back off automatically** below your TPS threshold. * **History is pruned automatically** to `settings.history-limit`. --- ## 🧩 Compatibility | | | | --- | --- | | Minecraft | 1.21, 1.21.1–1.21.11, 26.1, 26.1.1, 26.1.2, 26.2, 26.3 | | Platforms | Paper, Purpur, Folia | | Java | 21+ (26.x servers require Java 25, as always) | | Optional | PlaceholderAPI | **Verified during this release:** Paper 1.21.4 (Java 21), Paper 26.3 (Java 25), Folia 26.3 (Java 25) — plugin enabled, all five channels delivered, scheduler fired, database writes confirmed. **Spigot/Bukkit are no longer listed.** The plugin uses Adventure components for hex colours and titles, which Spigot does not provide; the 2.x Spigot listing could not actually enable. Listing only Paper/Purpur/Folia keeps the download button honest. --- ## ⬆️ Upgrading from 2.x 1. Drop the new jar in `plugins/` and restart. 2. Your config is migrated automatically: * invalid YAML is repaired (with a backup), * `settings.database` / `countdown.database` move to the new top-level `database` section in memory, * `settings.bungeecord-support` and `settings.cross-server-channel` map to the new `network` section. 3. The old `minecraft.db` SQLite file is renamed to `broadcast.db` — data is preserved. 4. **Permission change:** `ultimatebroadcast.use` now defaults to **op** (2.x defaulted to true, letting any player broadcast). Grant it explicitly to staff or VIP ranks if needed. 5. `/broadcast enable|disable` is now a runtime switch and no longer rewrites `config.yml`. No config keys were removed. Old `gui.items`, `scheduler.broadcasts`, `template`, `countdown` and `default-*` sections keep working. --- ## 📦 Technical details * Build: Java 21 target, Paper API 1.21, shaded SQLite + MySQL drivers, no external plugin dependencies. * Storage tables: `broadcast_history`, `broadcast_stats`, `broadcast_preferences`. * All three tables are created automatically on both SQLite and MySQL. --- *If 2.1–2.3 broke your server: sorry. 2.4.0 is the version that should have shipped. Please open an issue with your log if anything still misbehaves.*
