SwiftCore - Modern Practice Core v4.5.9

Fixed multiple critical arena issues that could cause overlap, conflicts, or mid-match corruption.

• Prevented arenas from being freed before players were teleported out.
• Fixed duplicate endMatch calls.
• Resolved async race condition during match creation.
• Fixed arena reset logic between rounds.

Arena lifecycle is now fully stable and safe.

• Team sorting system fully optimized — major CPU usage reduced (~15% → near 0%).
• Header & Footer handling optimized — removed unnecessary processing.
• Fixed memory leak in placeholder cache system.
• Optimized rank updates — now only refreshes the affected player instead of everyone.
• Eliminated RAM spikes during rank changes.

Overall result: lower CPU usage, stable RAM, smoother performance.

• Reworked the scoreboard team system to significantly reduce CPU usage.
• Eliminated heavy internal processing that was previously affecting performance (~15% CPU usage).
• Implemented a packet-based system for team updates, similar to large-scale optimized plugins.
• Teams now update per-player instead of broadcasting unnecessary updates to everyone.
• Proper handling for player join, quit, and team changes to ensure stable behavior.
• Improved overall sorting performance and reduced server load during matches.

• Fixed multiple memory leaks that were causing increasing RAM usage over time.
• Optimized internal caching to prevent unnecessary memory growth.
• Reduced garbage collection pressure and improved overall server stability.
• Fixed an issue that could cause FAWE database errors during automatic cleanup.
• Improved long-term performance, especially on larger servers with more players.

Performance Improvements

• Optimized GUI configs (PlayerSettings, KillEffect, ArmorTrim, PartyManage). All YAML files are now cached at startup instead of loading on every open/click.
• Removed thousands of unnecessary HashMap allocations per second during kit rule checks.
• Optimized scoreboard updates by skipping redundant NMS calls when suffix is already empty.
• Reduced blocking YAML disk I/O by caching configs and adding proper reload handling.
• Overall server thread usage reduced (~1.3%+ performance improvement).

Party System Fixes

• Fixed party scoreboard resetting during active games (PARTY_FFA, PARTY_SPLIT, PARTY_VS).
• Fixed Leave Spectator giving wrong items. Players now correctly receive party-based items.
• Fixed scoreboard showing IDLE after leaving spectator. It now correctly shows IN_GAME.
• Fixed tab list not resetting after leaving spectator.
• Fixed /p leave being blocked after spectator mode.
• Fixed /p leave during an active match. Players are now eliminated properly, teleported to lobby, and removed from the party.
• Fixed players rejoining next rounds after leaving the party mid-game.
• Fixed scoreboard not updating correctly when the next round starts.

Now saturation depletes naturally through SATIATED healing, and once
exhausted, only vanilla NATURAL_REGEN (every 4 seconds) applies.

• Fixed multiple issues with temporary spectators in party games.
• Dead players can no longer hit alive players and are now pushed away on close contact.
• Spectator scoreboard now correctly displays:
  • Spectated player
  • Arena
  • Kit
  • Current player count
• The Compass item now correctly opens the Teleport to Player GUI.
• The Leave Spectator item now properly returns players to the lobby while keeping them in the party.
• Non-owner party members no longer incorrectly receive the Disband Party item after leaving spectator mode.
• Using /p leave while in the lobby now correctly removes the player from the next round of the active party game.
