Training Dummy

[1.9] - 2026-10-09

Changed

• The global (cross-server) leaderboard is now off by default (globalLeaderboardEnabled). With it off the mod makes no network requests at all. The scoreboard dummy's Global tab stays visible and tells players to enable it in the server config.
• When enabled, the only data sent to the leaderboard worker is the player's nickname and the damage of a record-breaking hit (no UUID, inventory, armor, held items, Curios, effects or attributes). The server-side attribute-tampering check and the weapon blacklist still apply; the worker no longer validates attributes.
• The global leaderboard is now fetched on demand (when a player opens the scoreboard dummy's screen and the cached copy is older than leaderboardRefreshSeconds) instead of on a timer, so nothing is requested while nobody uses it.
• Submitting a record now takes a single request (was three).
• The mod's network protocol version was bumped: client and server must both run 1.9.

Fixed

• Leaderboard network requests no longer run on the server thread. A slow or offline worker can no longer stall the server tick; repeated failures log at most one warning every few minutes.
• When the global leaderboard has not loaded yet, a hit no longer claims a provisional rank; it just triggers loading it and the record is confirmed afterwards.
• Connection timeout to the leaderboard worker raised from 5 to 10 seconds.
• On a leaderboard communication error the player now also gets a second message suggesting to check that the mod is up to date on the server and client.
• Every request to the leaderboard worker is now logged with its full URL, outcome and duration (and the exact JSON body for submissions) in the server log.

New

• New hidden nickname easter egg: Jazarinha (same hurt and placement sounds as JazaraGamer).
• New hidden nickname easter egg: EqisEdu (dies in one hit to the Occultism Iesnium Butcher Knife, with its own death message).
• The Forbidden Butcher Knife (Occultism Extra Spirits) can no longer score leaderboard hits (always blocked, like the Morgan Sword).
• README now has a Privacy section describing exactly what is sent, when, and where.
