TabPlugin

TabPing Plugin Description 🎮
Main Function:
The plugin displays player ping ⚡ in milliseconds next to their nickname on the tab list (when you press Tab key). Additionally, it monitors player activity and marks inactive players as AFK 💤.

How the ping system works: 📊

Updates every second ⏱️: The plugin checks each player's ping on the server every 1 second (20 Minecraft ticks)
Color coding by speed 🌈:

• Green 🟢 < 50ms - excellent ping
• Yellow 🟡 50-100ms - good ping
• Orange (GOLD) 🟠 100-150ms - medium ping
• Red 🔴 > 150ms - poor ping

Display format: PlayerName [45ms]

Nickname is white ⚪
Ping is colored 🎨 (depends on value)
Brackets are dark gray

How the AFK system works: 😴

Activity tracking 👀:

Plugin saves timestamp of each player's last movement
Listens to PlayerMoveEvent - reacts when player moves 🏃

Movement detection 🎯:

Plugin checks if player actually moved (X, Y, Z coordinate change)
Just rotating camera 🔄 does NOT reset AFK timer
Every real movement 🚶 resets the timer

AFK checking ⏲️:

Every second the plugin checks all players
If player hasn't moved for 5 minutes ⏰ (300 seconds) - gets AFK status
Format: PlayerName [120ms] [AFK] 💤

Returning from AFK ✅:

When AFK player moves - immediately loses AFK marker
Ping is automatically updated 🔄

Configuration system (config.yml): ⚙️
You can customize everything:
yamlafk:
time-seconds: 300 # Change to 60 = 1 minute, 600 = 10 minutes etc. ⏱️
text: "AFK" # Can change to "AWAY" or "INACTIVE" 📝
color: "GRAY" # Color of AFK text 🎨

ping:
thresholds:
good: 50 # Good ping threshold ✅
medium: 100 # Medium ping threshold ⚠️
bad: 150 # Bad ping threshold ❌

colors:
good: "GREEN" # Color for <50ms 🟢
medium: "YELLOW" # Color for 50-100ms 🟡
bad: "GOLD" # Color for 100-150ms 🟠
very-bad: "RED" # Color for >150ms 🔴

Commands: 💬:

• /tabping - Forces immediate update + shows player info in chat 🔄
• /tabping reload - Reloads config.yml without server restart ♻️
• /tabping toggle - Disables/enables plugin temporarily 🔌

How the plugin handles AuthSystem: 🔐

When player joins, plugin waits 5 seconds ⏳ before setting ping
This gives time to log in through AuthSystem 🔑
After logging in, ping appears automatically ✨

Technically - what happens behind the scenes: 🔧

Memory 💾: Plugin stores in HashMaps:

lastActivity - last activity time of each ****player (UUID → timestamp)
afkPlayers - AFK status of each player (UUID → true/false)

Events 📡:

PlayerJoinEvent - initializes player (resets AFK, sets activity time) 👋
PlayerQuitEvent - removes player from memory 👋
PlayerMoveEvent - updates activity time 🏃

Timers ⏲️ (BukkitRunnable):

Timer #1: Every second checks and marks AFK players 😴
Timer #2: Every second updates ping for all players ⚡

Adventure API 🎨: Uses modern text component system for coloring

Example scenarios: 📝
Scenario 1: Normal player ✅

Player "Invvl" joins, logs in 🔑 → waits 5s ⏳ → displays Invvl [35ms] (green 🟢)
Player actively plays 🎮, ping updates every second

Scenario 2: Player leaves computer 💤

After 5 minutes without movement → Invvl [40ms] [AFK] (AFK gray)
Returns, moves 🏃 → immediately Invvl [42ms] (AFK disappears ✨)

Scenario 3: Bad internet 📶

Ping jumps: 80ms → Invvl [80ms] (yellow 🟡)
Lagspike 📉: 200ms → Invvl [200ms] (red 🔴)
Stabilizes 📈: 60ms → Invvl [60ms] (yellow 🟡)

The plugin is lightweight 🪶 (only checks movement and ping), configurable ⚙️ (everything in config.yml) and automatic 🤖 (requires no player interaction).

Perfect for: 🎯

✅ Survival servers
✅ PvP servers (important ping info!)
✅ Minigame servers
✅ Community servers with AFK management

Enjoy your optimized tab list! 🚀✨
