JumpBoss

JumpBoss is a fun mini-game addon for World of Warcraft that tracks how many times players jump during boss encounters (Encounter Journal encounters). It shows a small, movable, translucent leaderboard during the fight (addon users only)

## 1.2.6
### Fixed
- Fixed addon communication desync during encounters:
  - All addon messages now consistently use a **single shared channel per group type** (RAID → INSTANCE_CHAT → PARTY).
  - Prevents split-brain scenarios where different clients believed they were alone or the winner.
- Fixed cases where **multiple players could still post** after wipes:
  - Winner arbitration now fully converges before any post is allowed.
  - Clients that do not receive complete state data will no longer post.
- Fixed missing or incomplete participant data in end-of-encounter results:
  - Final leaderboard now reflects the full synced state, not partial local totals.

### Improved
- Real-time leaderboard updates during encounters:
  - State broadcasts are now reliably received mid-fight, allowing the on-screen leaderboard to update live.
  - HELLO / REQ / STATE handshake reliability improved for raids, wipes, reloads, and late joins.
- End-of-encounter behavior clarified and stabilized:
  - Leaderboard posts on both **kills and wipes**, but still **winner-only**.
  - Posting is delayed until synchronization completes, ensuring correct totals.
- Chat output formatting consistency:
  - Leaderboard entries are posted **one player per line** for readability.
  - Uses short names (`Name` instead of `Name-Realm`) consistently.

### Notes
- JumpBoss remains fully peer-to-peer:
  - There is **no host or leader** — all clients participate equally.
  - Deterministic arbitration guarantees only one poster.
- Jump counting still stops immediately on encounter end.
- The on-screen leaderboard remains visible for the configured post-encounter duration.
