Automatic Database Detection

PlaytimeTracker automatically detects AdvancedPlaytime SQLite database files when present.

If detected, the database is imported automatically using:

No manual file placement required.

Import Safety Backups

Before applying an import (when not using --dryrun), PlaytimeTracker now creates a backup of the existing playtime data.

Backup location:

This ensures safe recovery if a migration needs to be reverted.

Migration Improvements

Added a recommended migration workflow for servers switching from other playtime plugins.

Migration process:

1. Keep the existing data folder from the previous playtime plugin.

2. Install PlaytimeTracker and remove the old playtime plugin .jar file.

3. Start the server once with PlaytimeTracker installed.

4. Run:

PlaytimeTracker will automatically detect and import the database.

1. If the previous plugin uses CSV / JSON / YAML files instead of a database, place the file in:

Then run:

Important Migration Note

After a successful import, servers must delete all old database files and leftover files from the previous playtime plugin.

This includes:

• SQLite .db files
• Old playtime plugin data folders
• Any leftover files from the previous plugin

If old database files remain on the server, PlaytimeTracker may detect them again and treat the environment as a migration state, which can cause the UI to show players as offline or not tracking.

Removing the old database/files ensures PlaytimeTracker begins tracking playtime normally.

Command Aliases

Short command aliases have been added for faster command usage.

These aliases fully support every PlaytimeTracker command and subcommand.
