HistoryX | GUI-based punishment history v2.0.0

New Integrations​

• BanManager support as a punishment extender
• PlaceholderAPI expansion (%historyx_total%, %historyx_is_banned%, %historyx_active_ban_remaining%, etc.)

New Features​

• Staff history GUI — /staffhistory <player> shows punishments issued by a staff member
• Right-click to revoke — active punishments can be revoked directly from the GUI via AnvilGUI reason input → confirmation screen → console command dispatch
• Punishment summary — player head item in both GUIs now shows per-type counts and total
• Granular permissions — each command and action (historyx.history, historyx.staffhistory, historyx.extrainfo, historyx.revoke, historyx.reload) is independently configurable via config.yml

Configuration & Reliability​

• Centralized message/config handling — all user-facing strings and settings go through a single Messages class with hardcoded fallbacks; no NPEs on missing keys
• YAML validation on reload — config is validated before being applied; failures are reported without disrupting the running plugin
• Configurable cache TTL — cache_ttl_seconds controls how long punishment history is cached per player
• Config migration — old flat-key config format is automatically backed up and replaced with the new structure on startup

Performance & Maintainability​

• Per-viewer GUI state (filter, sort, extra info) replaces previous global statics, eliminating race conditions between concurrent viewers
• Countdown timer only updates slots with active temporary punishments rather than rebuilding the full inventory each tick
• UUID→name resolution in staff history mode uses a per-viewer cache to avoid redundant Bukkit.getOfflinePlayer calls

Additions:

• Added sorting to the GUI. You are now able to toggle easily between sorting by date ascending, descending, etc.
• Implemented caching to reduce server strain and prevent lag
• Added a refresh button to force data to latest available

Fixes & improvements:

• Fixed multiple menus causing incorrect timings
• Fixed multiple menus linking filtering and sorting options
• Made code more efficient and scalable

• Fixed an issue with update checker errors on start-up.
• Cleaned-up code formatting and performance.
• Introduced more documentation.
