FoliaCore v5.7-deathwish — The Deathwish Update

Welcome to FoliaCore v5.7-deathwish, the most robust and stable release of our native, multi-threaded essentials suite built specifically for Paper and Folia servers. This major version transitions the codebase from the legacy Blue Nightingale iterations into the battle-tested Deathwish layout, featuring refined thread-safety, absolute scheduler stability, and a fully polished command stack. ---

Critical Bug Fixes (Deathwish Changelog)

We have addressed and fixed several concurrency and API compatibility issues encountered during performance stress tests: 1. Regional Status Concurrency Fix (`/status`): Issue:* The status telemetry command previously queried player.getLocation().getChunk().getX() across all players. On regional servers, accessing a chunk in another region off its own thread causes a thread-access violation (IllegalStateException: Async block/chunk access). Fix:* Replaced direct chunk retrieval with pure coordinate math: getBlockX() >> 4 and getBlockZ() >> 4. This is 100% thread-safe, fast, and does not require regional locks or chunk loads. 2. Immediate Task Scheduler Rectification (`/tpa`, `/tpaccept`, `/tpahere`): Issue:* The TPA system used runDelayed(..., 0L) for immediate scheduling. Folia throws IllegalArgumentException: Delay ticks may not be <= 0 when passed 0L. Fix:* Shifted to Folia's immediate executor player.getScheduler().run(plugin, task, null). 3. GPS Navigation NPE & Schedulers: Issue:* Periodic updates threw a NullPointerException on activeGpsTasks and invoked legacy Bukkit.getScheduler() sync repeating tasks (unsupported on Folia). Fix:* Rebuilt using Folia's entity periodic scheduler player.getScheduler().runAtFixedRate(...) and initialized coordinate maps safely. 4. Sidebar Scoreboard Exception Shielding: Issue:* Setting scoreboards or fetching average TPS on regional builds lacking scoreboard support threw an unhandled UnsupportedOperationException. Fix:* Wrapped all scoreboard updating logic in exception shields, automatically toggling visual sidebars off globally without crashing the plugin. ---

Complete Feature Walkthrough & Documentation

FoliaCore is split into modular segments designed to work concurrently across Folia's independent region threads. Below is a comprehensive walkthrough of the available features.

1. Teleportation and Request System

FoliaCore includes a complete teleport suite that respects regional scheduling boundaries. Teleporting players requires brief stability (3 seconds) to prevent visual glitching across regions. TPA Requests:* Send a teleport request using /tpa <player>. Accept it with /tpaccept or reject with /tpdeny. Bring Requests:* Request a player to teleport to you using /tpahere <player>. Last Location History:* Returns to the location before your last teleportation with /back (automatically tracks death points and teleports). Spawn Management:* Set the global spawn location with /setspawn, set the first join location with /setfirstspawn, and teleport to them using /spawn. Warps System:* Admins can establish warps using /setwarp <name> and delete them using /delwarp <name>. Players can see authorized warps via /warps and travel using /warp <name>.

2. Social and Mail

Keep players connected across regional cores with asynchronous messaging: Private Messages:* Message players privately with /msg <player> <message> and reply instantly with /reply <message>. Mailing System:* Send offline mail notifications using /mail send <player> <message>, read mail with /mail read, and empty your mailbox with /mail clear. RealName Nicknames:* Toggle active nick names with /nick <nickname> and inspect real usernames using /realname <nickname>. Privacy Block List:* Prevent harassment by blocking individuals with /block <player> and /unblock <player>.

3. Server Administration and Control

Modular Telemetry (`/status`):* Displays overall server telemetry, including average MSPT (Milliseconds Per Tick) per world and chunk center coordinates of active region groups. Time & Weather Control:* Dynamically edit time and weather across independent worlds using /time <set/add> and /weather <sun/rain/storm>. Vanish and SocialSpy:* Disappear visually from tab lists and player trackers with /vanish. Inspect private chats on the fly with /socialspy. Inventory Inspection:* Admins can view or manage other players' inventories in real-time with /invsee <player> and ender chests using /enderchest <player>.

4. Visual Layout (Tab-Sidebar Configuration)

FoliaCore supports optional visual formatting inside tab-sidebar.yml. * Set custom header and footer animations. * Setup custom sidebar menus (which fall back dynamically on regional cores that do not support scoreboard objectives). * Toggle sidebar display per-player with /sidebar or /scoreboard.

FoliaCore v5.6.1 Patch Release

This patch updates FoliaCore to resolve critical scheduler and thread-safety bugs on Folia regional server architectures:

Bug Fixes

Folia Telemetry Coordinate Thread-Safety:* Replaced legacy .getChunk() access in the /status telemetry command with thread-safe coordinate shifts (getBlockX() >> 4 and getBlockZ() >> 4). This prevents IllegalStateException: Async block/chunk access when retrieving regional centers across threads. Immediate Task Scheduling Fix:* Replaced runDelayed(..., 0L) in /tpa, /tpaccept, and /tpahere with immediate task executor scheduling (run(plugin, task, null)). This fixes the IllegalArgumentException: Delay ticks may not be <= 0 crash on Folia. GPS Navigation Fix:* Fixed the activeGpsTasks Map initialization NullPointerException and replaced legacy Bukkit sync repeating task schedulers with native Folia entity periodic run tasks (runAtFixedRate). Sidebar Scoreboard Exception Shielding:* Added try-catch blocks to catch UnsupportedOperationException when initializing sidebar scoreboards or reading TPS metrics, letting the plugin gracefully fall back and disable sidebar processing on builds that lack scoreboard support.

i just fixed an exception bug. but, i really dont know why i put 5.6 instead of 3.6. i think were in future now. jave fun
