## About
PlayerStats is a Minecraft server plugin that adds a command to view player statistics in
top-10 format or individually. Currently tested on all versions between **1.16.5** and **1.20.1** on platforms:
- Bukkit
- Spigot
- Paper
- Purpur
(It's possible PlayerStats works on other platforms too, but these are the ones I have explicitly tested.)
&nbsp;
## Features
* **Easy to use**
- One central command that can:
- Explain **how to use** the plugin with `/statistic`
![Usage](src/main/resources/images/usage.png)
- Show you the **top 10** on your server for all possible statistics with `/statistic ... top`
![Top_10](src/main/resources/images/top_10.png)
- See those same statistics for any **individual player** with `/statistic ... player`
![Individual_Stat](src/main/resources/images/individual_stat.png)
- Or look up the **combined total** of everyone on your server
![New_Numbers](src/main/resources/images/new_numbers.png)
- Guide you through the available options while you type with an extensive **tab-complete** feature
![Tab_Complete](src/main/resources/images/tab_complete.png)
- See the output in a **readable format** that makes sense in the Minecraft world, with more information in hover-text:
![Damage_Format](src/main/resources/images/damage_format.png)
- **Share statistics** that you look up with the other players in chat:
![Shared_Top_10](src/main/resources/images/shared_top_10.png)
* **No set-up required**
- PlayerStats will work correctly regardless of how long your server has already existed - it doesn't
have to be present when you start a new world
- Data is retrieved directly from already existing playerfiles, so you don't have to
set up a database, use scoreboards, or anything of the sort
* **PlaceholderAPI support**
- Placeholders are added in a separate expansion, which can be found on [GitHub](https://github.com/Artemis-the-gr8/PlayerStatsExpansion), in the PlaceholderAPI [eCloud](https://api.extendedclip.com/expansions/playerstatsexpansion/), or downloaded in-game with `/papi ecloud download PlayerStats`
- For more information about the placeholders, see the expansion's [GitHub](https://github.com/Artemis-the-gr8/PlayerStatsExpansion)!
* **Safe**
- PlayerStats uses **multi-threading** to ensure server performance does not suffer and
players cannot crash the server by spamming its commands
- This also means that calculating statistics will be very **fast**
* **Customizable**
- You can customize the following (and more):
- Choose which **range of units** you want to display your time-, damage- and distance-based statistics in:
![Time_Format](src/main/resources/images/time_format.png)
- **Automatically translate** statistics to the language of the client that views them, or customize the statistic-names through the **language.yml** file
- Use festive formatting, or enable rainbow mode whenever!
![Translated](src/main/resources/images/translated.png)
- Only show statistics for **whitelisted** players
- Exclude statistics from **banned** players
- Exclude statistics from specific players with `/statexclude`
- Limit who is allowed to **share statistics** in chat and how often players can share
- Limit statistics based on when a player **last joined**.
This option can be particularly useful if you have had a lot of players join your server in the past
whose statistics aren't of particular interest to your current player-base.
On top of that, limiting the amount of players shown in the top 10 can greatly increase performance speed.
- The **colors** you want the output to be
- You can go for default Minecraft chat colors, or use **hex colors**!
- Whether you want the output to have additional **style**, such as italics
- You can configure the following **permissions**:
- `playerstats.stat` for using the general command (true for everyone by default)
- `playerstats.share` for sharing statistics in chat (true for everyone by default)
- `playerstats.reload` for reloading the config (only for OP players by default)
- `playerstats.exclude` to exclude players from top- and server-statistics (only for OP players by default)
