Changelog

1.0.3 - Manual Test Report Hotfix - 2026-07-04

Changed

• Updated embedded runtime setup docs to reference the 1.0.3 Maven artifact.

Fixed

• Fixed /telemetry test [detail] so crash-enabled projects accept the runtime's manual test source and actually queue a crash-style test report.

1.0.2 - Console Commands and Upload Retry Hotfix - 2026-06-30

Changed

• Text-based telemetry diagnostics and operator commands can now run directly from the server console as well as from in-game players with permission. Player UI commands such as /telemetry consent and /telemetry report remain player-only.
• Added the production Telemetry website URL to the standalone manifest.
• Updated embedded runtime setup docs to reference the 1.0.2 Maven artifact.
• Documented portal project and server-profile deletion behavior in the privacy policy.

Fixed

• Added upload retry cooldowns after failed telemetry delivery attempts so automatic flushes do not repeatedly hammer an unavailable or throttling ingest endpoint. Manual, shutdown, and server-verification flushes still bypass the cooldown.

1.0.1 - Public Documentation Refresh - 2026-06-28

Changed

• Updated the README and embedded-mode guides with the production telemetry portal, runtime downloads, Maven repository, Gradle dependency, server browser, and server verification paths.
• Clarified that server browser listings are server-operator owned and do not require a mod-author project.
• Updated the privacy policy to explicitly include loaded mod names in crash, event, and public aggregate stats metadata.

1.0.0 - Public Telemetry Runtime - 2026-06-26

Changed

• Telemetry descriptor categories now separate supported from defaultEnabled, allowing a mod to show a category in consent while keeping it off by default for opt-in setups.
• Omitted telemetry categories are now treated as unsupported and hidden from consent, while supported categories default on unless defaultEnabled is explicitly set to false.
• Simplified stats-only descriptor setup so a project can declare only telemetry.stats.supported without listing every unrelated telemetry category as false.
• Updated the public wiki setup path to keep portal project creation separate from descriptor category opt-in, making the quick crash and stats guides clearer for first-time users.
• Promoted the standalone and embeddable runtime artifacts to the first public 1.0.0 release line.

Fixed

• Fixed the example consumer manifest dependency identifier so it targets Alechilles:Alec's Telemetry!.

0.2.5 - Embedded Consent Funnel Hotfix - 2026-06-24

Fixed

• Fixed host-backed embedded runtimes so first-review consent completion is delegated to the active runtime host, allowing Tamework-embedded installs to upload first_review_completed consent funnel metrics instead of only marking local consent state.
• Fixed embedded runtime version reporting so shaded hosts read Alec's Telemetry runtime metadata from packaged Maven properties instead of falling back to the stale 0.1.3 value.
• Fixed embedded stats heartbeats so player interval peak and average counts are preserved by the active runtime coordinator instead of collapsing to only the current online-player count.

0.2.4 - Server Verification Setup Hotfix - 2026-06-22

Changed

• Added Alec's Telemetry self reporting so standalone installs have a crash/error/stats-enabled project for runtime failures, public usage heartbeats, and server verification even when no consumer mods are configured.
• Wired the Alec's Telemetry self project to its hosted project key and added internal error events for runtime command and shared event registration failures.
• Added an explicit standalone consent UI logo asset and embedded Creditor so Alec's Telemetry contributes to /credits when installed.
• Fixed Alec's Telemetry's own consent row icon in the consent UI.
• Added /telemetry server verify so server owners can save a ModStats server claim token from the command instead of editing the identity file by hand.
• Server verification now uses the newly saved token immediately while still reporting real heartbeat delivery state from the flush summary.
• Added one-time telemetry data migration so Windows save-folder data, lowercase server-root telemetry folders, and embedded-owner settings are consolidated under the canonical mods/Alechilles_Alec's Telemetry! runtime root.
• Fixed consent override saves so unsupported telemetry categories are left undefined instead of being pinned to false, preserving future descriptor defaults when a mod later adds support for those categories.
• Added consent funnel metrics for first-run prompt display, consent UI opens, and first-review completion, with per-viewer/project/version dedupe.

Fixed

• Removed stale legacy telemetry files after successful migration when canonical files already exist, preventing old save and embedded-owner telemetry folders from lingering after the runtime has adopted the canonical root.
• Fixed embedded-owner cleanup so Telemetry/Settings/runtime.json and Telemetry/Settings/server-id.txt are pruned along with project override files after migration.

0.2.3 - Intake Backoff Hotfix - 2026-06-21

Fixed

• Honored hosted intake Retry-After and stats heartbeat interval hints so runtimes back off instead of repeatedly sending during platform pressure.
• Stopped the flush loop after a backoff response so queued uploads do not keep hammering a saturated ingest lane in the same flush pass.

0.2.2 - Aggregate Stats Heartbeat Hotfix - 2026-06-20

Changed

• Reduced stats telemetry volume by reporting one aggregate heartbeat for all active projects on a runtime instead of one separate heartbeat per project.

Fixed

• Preserved per-project stats attribution in aggregate heartbeat details so the hosted service can fan out one runtime upload into project-specific ModStats rows.

0.2.1 - Consent Metrics Hotfix - 2026-06-19

Fixed

• Fixed hosted consent metrics so first-review choices and later opt-in or opt-out changes are uploaded for portal consent-rate reporting.

0.2.0 - Unified Runtime, Consent, Reports, and Stats - 2026-06-18

Added

• Added a shared runtime host and coordinator election model so standalone and embedded telemetry copies can agree on one active runtime.
• Added consent UI and commands plus project-scoped consent bridge support for dependency and embedded integrations.
• Added manual player reports with attachments, receipts, review commands, and hosted ingest and storage contracts.
• Added Hytale usage stats and project-defined stats heartbeats for hosted dashboards.

Changed

• Moved project discovery, command wiring, stats, consent, and provider handling into the shared runtime module so the standalone mod stays thin.
• Updated hosted and descriptor docs and examples for the unified runtime model.

Fixed

• Fixed provider and coordinator parity issues around consent-only projects, passive project listings, startup discovery, and heartbeat ownership.
• Fixed host-backed embedded telemetry startup and teardown so pre-start events and replaced coordinators are preserved cleanly.
