Endgame & QoL - 5.0 Out !

[4.0.4]

New Features

• Instance portal key refund — If a dungeon instance fails to load, the consumed portal key is automatically returned to the player after a few seconds

Bug Fixes

• Vorthak shop "restocks in 739,676 days" fix — Shop restock timer used Instant.now() (real year 2026) instead of game time. Engine calculates days from year 1 CE, causing an impossibly long timer. Now uses WorldTimeResource.ZERO_YEAR so the engine recalculates correctly. Also fixed for Korvyn and Morghul shops
• BestiaryData.json corruption fix — Concurrent save() calls from debounced saves and player disconnects could interleave file writes, producing invalid JSON. All save operations now synchronized
• Craft bounty detection fix — Craft-type bounties (e.g., "Craft a Mithril Sword") were not detecting completed crafts. CraftTracker was using the recipe ID instead of the output item ID, and filtering out non-Endgame_ prefixed items
• Crafting toggle persistence fix — Recipe toggles were resetting on restart. Two systems were fighting: toggles saved to EndgameConfig.json while recipe blocking reads from RecipeOverrides.json. Removed duplicate toggle section, unified all recipe visibility on RecipeOverrides.json as the single source of truth
• RPG Leveling XP broadcast fix — Killing an elite/boss mob awarded XP to ALL players in the same world instead of only the killer. Now uses the death damage source to identify and reward only the actual killer
• Dragon Fire spawn fix — Dragon Fire spawn caused IllegalStateException: "Kind" must not be an empty string.

Balance

• Morghul Swamp Ingot stock increased — Stock raised from 10 to 99 per restock
• Dragon Heart stack size — Max stack increased from 1 to 100

Technical

• SQL drivers unbundled — MySQL, PostgreSQL, and MariaDB JDBC drivers are no longer included in the JAR. Server admins using these databases must place the driver JAR in the server classpath manually. SQLite remains bundled
• BountyData.json corruption fix — Concurrent save calls in BountyManager could interleave file writes. All save operations now synchronized (matching AchievementData/BestiaryData fix)
• Config serialization safety — CODEC getters for all player data files (Achievements, Bestiary, Bounties, VoidPockets, Accessories) now return snapshots instead of live mutable map references, preventing concurrent modification during serialization
