Changelog

Changes are listed newest first, with an independent version for every individual T5/T6 script and each native plugin. Current versions are recorded in versions.json; see the version policy.

2026-10-12

Public game-bank endpoint — TWS #13

Component Version Affected source
tws_t5_bank.gsc 2.0.0 t5/scripts/tws_t5_bank.gsc
tws_t6_bank.gsc 2.0.0 t6/scripts/tws_t6_bank.gsc
  • Use https://ec.thewrightserver.net/api/bank for all balance, transfer and settlement requests on both engines. Remove the tws_bank_url override; stale settings are ignored. This configuration removal requires a major bump. Keep EC's tws_server_id and private per-instance tws_bank_token authentication.
  • Both T5 and T6 receive the same behavior with their existing namespaces and startup guards. Native plugins and other scripts need no source changes.
  • Compatibility: requires companion EC agent 1.9.1+ to recognize public and legacy controller-derived journals during authenticated teardown settlement. Existing plugin 1.1.0, common 1.0.0+ and telemetry 1.0.0+ remain sufficient; no new native API or third-party dependency requirement.
  • Deployment: update agents first. When changing endpoints, rebuild through EC so the old process stops and its pending decisions settle before a new process starts. Do not switch scripts with just a map restart in that case; journals are endpoint-scoped. If the old URL already matches exactly, copy the scripts and restart the map; no full server-process restart is required. See endpoint upgrade and recovery. No deployment was performed; agent release signing, Windows/GSC compilation and live T5/T6 validation remain required.
  • Checks: portable script fixtures exercise real initialization with stale overrides, every request type, authentication, empty balances and retries. Native fixtures cover zero-balance and insufficient-balance replies alongside existing durable storage and process-restart checks.

Persistent cross-game player bank — TWS #3 / Electric Cherry #146

Component Version Affected source
tws_t5_bank.gsc 1.0.0 New t5/scripts/tws_t5_bank.gsc
tws_t6_bank.gsc 1.0.0 New t6/scripts/tws_t6_bank.gsc
t5-plugin 1.1.0 t5/plugins/tws-t5-gsc-utils/src/component/bank.cpp, src/utils/bank.cpp, src/utils/bank.hpp
t6-plugin 1.1.0 t6/plugins/tws-t6-gsc-utils/src/component/bank.cpp, src/utils/bank.cpp, src/utils/bank.hpp
  • Add .b, .d <amount|all> and .w <amount|all> plus help registration on both engines. Store shared GUID balances and ledger history through Electric Cherry's authenticated bank API. EC generates and injects a private token per immutable server instance, preserving it on rebuild/move and revoking it on retirement. No manual token map is required; the shared telemetry token does not authorize bank operations.
  • Add native bankLoad, bankStore, bankRemove and bankResponse helpers. Save cancellation before preparing a transfer, replace it with a commit decision before applying points without yielding, and replay settlement after map/process restarts. Invalid replies, insufficient funds, changed player state, and failed journal writes leave spendable points unchanged. Preserve earned score_total; applied withdrawals belong to the current match.
  • T5 and T6 receive equivalent behavior with their own namespaces, last-stand APIs, entry points and journal directories. Other scripts are unchanged; existing common help registration and telemetry match keys already suffice.
  • Compatibility: deploy Electric Cherry #146 first, then each game's plugin 1.1.0 and bank script 1.0.0, with common and telemetry 1.0.0 or newer. EC host agents 1.9.0+ settle pending journals before destructive teardown. No new third-party dependency, upstream pin, or loader version requirement. Keep tws-bank/<game>/ on persistent writable storage; preserve pending journals when rotating credentials or restarting servers.
  • Deployment: build/install both Windows x86 DLLs and restart the full server processes, then install the new bank scripts and create/rebuild through EC to inject private credentials. Restart maps after script changes. See bank setup and recovery. No deployment was performed. Windows DLL linking, GSC compilation and live Plutonium checks remain required.
  • Checks: node tools/check_bank.mjs exercises the actual transfer functions; python3 tools/test_plugin_bank.py checks native journals, response validation, failed writes and process recovery with sanitizers. The T6 compiler check now includes all eight modules.

T6 newcomer join eligibility — tws_t6_join.gsc 1.0.1

  • Fix t6/scripts/tws_t6_join.gsc treating the initial T6 setup spawn as gameplay, which rejected a new spectator's .join on Farm Survival round 3. Wait for the stock delayed spectator transition, then record actual play. Continue observing later spawns so waiting for the next round cannot grant an extra life after death. Reject requests while a spawn is settling; a real death during that window also permanently closes eligibility.
  • T5 is unchanged: its separate SP spawn flow and self.initialized guard do not use T6's delayed game-mode spectator transition.
  • Compatibility: existing T6 common 1.0.0 or later; no new dependency requirement. Deploy the updated join script to storage/t6/scripts/zm/ and restart the map. No full server-process restart is required.
  • Portable regression fixtures: node tools/check_join.mjs. Compilation and live Plutonium validation remain required; no deployment was performed.

Persistent top-left Discord URL

Script Version Affected source
tws_t5_hud.gsc 1.1.0 t5/scripts/tws_t5_hud.gsc
tws_t5_common.gsc 1.1.0 t5/scripts/tws_t5_common.gsc
tws_t6_hud.gsc 1.1.0 t6/scripts/tws_t6_hud.gsc
tws_t6_common.gsc 1.1.0 t6/scripts/tws_t6_common.gsc
  • Add https://discord.thewrightserver.net as a small, light-gray top-left HUD label, created once per connection, including spectator newcomers. It has no expiry or death/respawn reset and is cleaned up on disconnect. Move the gameplay stack down 20 HUD units to leave room above the timers; help and record positioning follow the shared layout automatically.
  • Both engines receive the feature using their existing HUD anchors: T5 left/top safe-area alignment and T6 fullscreen alignment.
  • Compatibility: deploy each game's HUD and common 1.1.0 together for the reserved top line. No new native plugin or external dependency requirement. Other scripts and both plugins retain their existing versions.
  • Deployment: copy the updated HUD and common scripts to storage/t5/scripts/sp/ or storage/t6/scripts/zm/, respectively, and restart the map. No full server-process restart is required. No deployment has been performed here.
  • Live validation remains required on both Plutonium games: check placement and readability, join as a spectator, die/respawn, reconnect, and open help and records to verify spacing and that only one URL label appears.

Initial versioning baseline

Established independent version 1.0.0 entries for each of the 14 scripts and both plugins from source commit b508b6739b185d5048e8a8f96ccb16e429f1d37a. This records the existing source state; earlier changes remain in Git history without retroactively assigned versions. The baseline introduces versions.json, this changelog, the README links and version policy, and the maintenance rules in AGENTS.md. It changes no game script or plugin behavior and requires no deployment by itself.

The component entries below summarize the existing functionality and deployment requirements for servers adopting this baseline. Version assignment does not indicate that a Windows build, live-game validation, or deployment was performed.

T5 script baselines

Each row is a separately versioned script under t5/scripts/.

Script Version Existing functionality
tws_t5_afk.gsc 1.0.0 AFK toggle, protection, and indicator
tws_t5_common.gsc 1.0.0 Shared configuration, helpers, commands, and player dispatchers
tws_t5_hud.gsc 1.0.0 Timers, zombie count, and health display
tws_t5_join.gsc 1.0.0 Immediate join for newcomers
tws_t5_leaderboard.gsc 1.0.0 Map record announcements and .leaders command
tws_t5_lock.gsc 1.0.0 Lobby lock at the configured round milestone
tws_t5_telemetry.gsc 1.0.0 Game reports, durable boundary retries, balance and cumulative score
  • Compatibility: these initial script versions use tws_t5_common.gsc 1.0.0; lobby lock also needs tws_t5_hud.gsc 1.0.0. Telemetry and leaderboard use TWS T5 plugin 1.0.0. Telemetry additionally requires Electric Cherry's match/sequence deduplication and score_total support; follow the receiver and plugin rollout order. Disabling telemetry by dvar does not remove its native linking requirements.
  • Deployment: follow the T5 installation/upgrade instructions, copy the desired scripts and their required dependencies to storage/t5/scripts/sp/, and restart the map. Installing or updating the required plugin needs a full server-process restart.

T6 script baselines

Each row is a separately versioned script under t6/scripts/, adapted to T6 APIs and map variants.

Telemetry additionally requires Electric Cherry's match/sequence deduplication and score_total support; follow the receiver and plugin rollout order. Disabling telemetry by dvar does not remove its native linking requirements.
  • Deployment: follow the T6 installation instructions, copy the desired scripts and their required dependencies to storage/t6/scripts/zm/, and restart the map. Installing or updating the required plugin needs a full server-process restart.

T5 plugin — 1.0.0

  • Baseline: the TWS-maintained plugin, including configurable HTTP deadlines, status/timing diagnostics, and durable telemetry storage and response helpers.
