Sorry for the absence but here yall go guys: ## [0.9.5] TL;DR - Smarter networks at scale: multi‑lobby/limbo balancing with auto‑start and dynamic scaling, resource‑aware commands with live metrics, and sturdier idle shutdown and limbo handling. ### Highlights - New: Multi‑lobby/limbo balancing with auto‑start and scaling - New: Resource‑aware `/ptero list` and `/ptero info` with live metrics - New: Command to start everything: `/forcestartall` - New: Player server history and smarter connection routing - Stability: More robust idle shutdowns, limbo handling, and cooldown logic - Quality: MiniMessage message system, better suggestions, and bStats metrics #### Commands - `/ptero list` and `/ptero info <server>` with MiniMessage formatting. - Live metrics: CPU, memory, disk, network, uptime. - Resource caching with configurable TTL (default 10s) and optional prefetch. - List shows TTL to auto‑shutdown and respects `alwaysOnline`. - `/forcestartall` to start all managed servers at once. - Enhanced chat command suggestions. #### Resource usage and scheduling - Live resource fetch for Pelican and Pterodactyl with rate‑limit, caching, and fallback to "unavailable" on errors. - Periodic idle shutdown sweep via `idleShutdownCheckInterval`. - Only online servers are eligible for idle shutdown scheduling. - `alwaysOnline` servers are excluded from idle shutdown and will be started on proxy startup; periodic checks ensure they stay up. #### Multi‑lobby/limbo support - New `LobbyBalancerManager` for routing and scaling across multiple lobbies/limbos. - Strategies: `ROUND_ROBIN`, `LEAST_PLAYERS`, `LEAST_CPU`. - Auto‑start/scale: - Maintain a minimum online (`minOnline`) and optionally cap with `maxOnline`. - Pre‑start early via `preStartThresholdPercent` to avoid bottlenecks. - Scale‑up by players or CPU (`LEAST_CPU` + `cpuScaleUpThreshold`). - Health checks and fallback: - If a lobby fails to come online, automatically try another. - Cooldowns to avoid spamming failing instances: `startFailureFallbackSeconds`, `startFailureCooldownSeconds`. - Cap control: - Choose whether lobbies/limbos count towards `maxOnlineServers`: `countLobbiesInMaxOnline`, `countLimbosInMaxOnline`. - `lobbiesToUse` limits to the first N lobbies. - Legacy config migration: - `limboServer` is auto‑migrated into `lobbyBalancer.limbos` and the old key is removed. #### Connection handling and UX - Start initiator tracking and periodic cleanup. - Players attempting to join a starting server are placed in a connection queue. - Connection reattempt logic; players reconnect to the server they started. - Configurable limbo and forced‑host behavior: - `sendToLimboOnStart`: optionally send a player to a limbo after starting a server from a lobby. - `forcedHostOfflineBehavior`: choose how to handle connections when a forced‑host target is offline. - New config: `shutdownOnProxyExit` to stop specific servers on proxy shutdown (supports list or `all`; defaults to empty list). - Player server history. #### Messages and formatting - New `MessageManager` with MiniMessage; placeholder rendering fixed. [#16](https://github.com/Tubs-Pluginz/VelocityPteroPower/issues/16) [#19](https://github.com/Tubs-Pluginz/VelocityPteroPower/issues/19) - Status color handled in code; tag casing corrected. - Multi‑language groundwork and migration to MiniMessage keys. #### Panel support and automation - Pelican API key prefix detection updated (recognizes Pelican again). - Autoscaling API threads for large networks. - Version checker updated for alpha versioning via GitHub Actions. - Alpha builds auto‑published to Modrinth on every commit. ### Metrics - bStats: added metrics for - Servers managed by VPP - Servers started by VPP - PanelType ### Fixes - **Limbo** - Fixed players staying in limbo on first connect. - Fixed redirection to limbo for player connections. - Added limbo "why" tracking and a periodic sweep to clear stuck players; ignores players who moved themselves. - **Cooldowns** - `commandCooldown = 0` now correctly disables the cooldown. - Fixed a variable bug that caused `commandCooldown` to always default to 10s. - **Whitelist and shutdowns** - Whitelist check cancels events and informs players properly. - Idle shutdown improved for servers that never receive players after start. - **Messages and docs** - Usage message placeholder fixed. - README updated with missing permissions and commands. - Comments updated for the new Pelican key prefix. - **Consistency in general**: - Improved server management [#17](https://github.com/Tubs-Pluginz/VelocityPteroPower/issues/17) - Let everyone get into the Limbo not only the player who started the server [#21](https://github.com/Tubs-Pluginz/VelocityPteroPower/issues/21) - Fixed config comments (only update when recreating the config file) [#23](https://github.com/Tubs-Pluginz/VelocityPteroPower/issues/23) ### Config keys touched (summary) - `lobbyBalancer.*` (lobbies, limbos, `minOnline`, `maxOnline`, strategies, health checks, scaling thresholds, counts, `lobbiesToUse`) - `resourceCacheSeconds`, `resourcePrefetchEnabled` - `idleShutdownCheckInterval` - `sendToLimboOnStart` - `forcedHostOfflineBehavior` - `shutdownOnProxyExit` - `alwaysOnline` ## New Contributors * @majoranimal made their first contribution in https://github.com/Tubs-Pluginz/VelocityPteroPower/pull/18 **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/Tubs-Pluginz/VelocityPteroPower/compare/v0.9.4-beta...v0.9.5-beta

## VelocityPteroPower Update: Whitelists, McSS Support, and Major Improvements! This version of VelocityPteroPower brings, expanded panel support, and a host of under-the-hood improvements for better performance and stability. ### Highlights of this Release: #### New Features * **Server Whitelist Management**: * Dynamically fetch, parse, and enforce server whitelists directly from your panel. * Manually reload whitelists with the `/ptero whitelistReload` command. * Configure whitelist settings per-server in your `config.yml`. * **Mc Server Soft Panel Support**: * VelocityPteroPower now supports Mc Server Soft panels alongside Pterodactyl and Pelican! * Includes appropriate API handling (note: whitelist file fetching is not supported by McSS). #### Key Improvements * **Major Code Refactor**: Significant parts of the plugin have been rewritten to be more modular, reliable, and easier to maintain. This means a more stable experience for you. * **Enhanced Connection & Server Management**: * Improved logic for handling player connections and server switches. * More robust server lifecycle management for starting and stopping servers. * Smarter handling for players attempting to connect to offline servers, redirecting to a limbo server if available. * **Improved API Key Handling**: More reliable API key validation across all supported panel types. * **Clearer Logging**: Logging has been improved for better diagnostics and clearer information. #### Important Fixes * Resolved issues with API key validation occurring at the wrong time. * Addressed several log redundancies and optimized instance creation. * Fixed issues related to API rate limit processing. * Ensured more consistent whitelist enforcement. As always, please back up your configuration files before updating. Thank you for using VelocityPteroPower!

## What's Changed * changed Pelican API key prefix by @TubYoub in https://github.com/BT-Pluginz/VelocityPteroPower/pull/12 fixed plugin not initiating when using Pelican panel **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/BT-Pluginz/VelocityPteroPower/compare/v0.9.3.1-beta...v0.9.3.2-beta

## VelocityPteroPower v0.9.3.1 - Release Notes This release focuses on enhancing server management flexibility, configuration options, and overall stability within VelocityPteroPower. ### ✨ New Features * **Configurable Server Status Check Method:** * A new `serverStatusCheckMethod` option has been added to `config.yml`. * Choose between `VELOCITY_PING` (uses Velocity's built-in ping) or `PANEL_API` (uses Pterodactyl/Pelican panel API for higher precision, mindful of API rate limits). * **Adjustable Logging Level:** * Control the plugin's log verbosity using the new `loggerLevel` setting in `config.yml`. * **Customizable Initial Check Delay:** * The `startupInitialCheckDelay` option in `config.yml` allows you to configure how long the plugin waits before the first server status check after startup. * **Refined Limbo Server Handling:** * Improved logic for handling limbo servers, including dynamic checks to ensure they are usable before redirecting players. * **Enhanced Messages:** * Added new placeholders and messages to `messages.yml`. * The `%limbo%` placeholder can now be used in relevant messages. * New messages provide more detail during server startup and when encountering API rate limits. ### 🚀 Improvements * **Updated Server Startup Flow:** * Players attempting to connect to a starting server will now be redirected to a configured limbo server (if available and usable). * Added pre-checks for Pterodactyl API rate limits before attempting to start a server via the API. * **Enhanced Logging:** * Added detailed debug-level logging for server status checks and API interactions, aiding troubleshooting. * Improved detection and logging of potential panel or server misconfigurations. * **Optimized Server Shutdown & Retries:** * Refined the server shutdown process and retry logic. * Now considers API rate limits and whether a server is empty before attempting shutdown actions. * **Version Checker Update:** * De-duplicated critical update warnings. * Merged `CRITICAL` and `HIGH` urgency levels for update notifications for clarity. ### 🐛 Bug Fixes * Resolved an issue where players could be disconnected during target server startup if configured limbo servers were unavailable or unusable. * Improved consistency in task handling and retries during the server shutdown sequence. * Prevented unhandled exceptions during server status checks (both `PING` and `API`), ensuring graceful handling of rate limits and other unknown errors. Issues: #10 **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/BT-Pluginz/VelocityPteroPower/compare/v0.9.2.4-alpha...v0.9.3.1

- isServerOnline() now catches the NullPointerExeption which is caused by the ping() when a server is offline. This should prevent the errors beeing printed to console - added configurable messages - added /ptero restart **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/BT-Pluginz/VelocityPteroPower/compare/v0.9.2.3-alpha...v0.9.2.4-alpha

- isServerOnline() now uses built in RegisteredServer.ping() instead of the panel API to check if the server is online - added config how long till a ping, to check if a server is online, times out - Plugin now checks every 16 Seconds (instead of 5) if a server is Online to avoid to much useless pings **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/BT-Pluginz/VelocityPteroPower/compare/v0.9.2.2-alpha...v0.9.2.3-alpha

- rate limit from Panel API getting automatically tracked - if Panel server ends the connection Plugin retrys the request - you can turn on rate limit logging in the console **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/BT-Pluginz/VelocityPteroPower/compare/v0.9.2.1-alpha...v0.9.2.2-alpha

- The API clients now have a configurable thread count for the HTTP CLients so the Plugin doesnt create them into the infinite - configmanager now keeps previous made changes from the config while adding new things **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/BT-Pluginz/VelocityPteroPower/compare/v0.9.2-beta...v0.9.2.1-alpha

- added the Console to use the COmmands of the Plugin - fixed an issue which occurd do to my stupidness of not testing and miss a crucial error because i hadnt changed a few variables. Thank for reporting the [issues](https://github.com/BT-Pluginz/VelocityPteroPower/issues/4) **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/BT-Pluginz/VelocityPteroPower/compare/v0.9.1-beta...v0.9.2-beta

Added Support for the [Pelican System](https://github.com/pelican-dev/) #2 Added updated Plugin, forgot to Change the Version for the Version Checking **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/BT-Pluginz/VelocityPteroPower/compare/v0.9-beta...v0.9.1-beta
