# v1.2.4.b2
#### Crashes
* **Ninja, Ghost, C4 Camouflage** - a client could crash with `CopyExistingEntity: missing client entity` when a hidden player died nearby. Hidden players are now revealed in the `player_death` pre-hook, inside the same tick as the death, so the client always holds the entity. Cleanup previously ran on a 2-tick timer and left a gap.
#### Skills
* **Falcon Eye** - weapons stayed locked into the next round if the camera was active when the round ended. Restoring the default view no longer depends on the camera entity still existing.
* **Jump Ban** - the target could still jump. Upward velocity is now zeroed on the jump input, the downward pull was raised, and the block lasts longer.
* **Jump Ban** - the "you can jump again" message never arrived. It was gated behind a freeze-time check that is always true when skills are cleared.
* **Blast Shot** - grenades could be thrown during freeze time.
* **Sound Maker** - phantom screams came from world origin `0 0 0`, and the sound was sent to the emitter's own team. Only living enemies now receive it.
* **Careful Bullets, Darkness, Deaf, Expensive Ammo, Giant, Glitch, Jammer, Jet Kick, Jump Curse, Magnifier, Nightmare, Poison, Primary Ban, Wild Throw** - the message telling the target the effect had ended never arrived, for the same freeze-time reason.
#### Freeze time
* **DisableOnFreezeTime** - the setting only applied to actively triggered skills; passive damage handlers ignored it entirely. Cypher, Exploding Barrel, Explosive Shot, Fortnite, Iana, Illusionist and Replicator now honour it.
#### Reliability
* **Skill distribution** - a round could start with nobody receiving a skill. A permission lookup for a player who was disconnecting threw and aborted the whole selection loop; those lookups are now isolated, and a failure on one player no longer stops the rest.
* **Skill distribution** - if a round still ends with no skills assigned while players are connected, distribution retries up to 6 times at 0.5s intervals and writes the reason to the debug log.
## Added
- **`CurseSkillPerPlayer`** (config.json) — limits how many curse skills (Darkness, JumpBan, PrimaryBan, Bankrupt and 14 others) can be stacked on a single player per round. `null` = unlimited (default), `1` = one curse per player, `2` = two. When the limit is reached the target is rejected and the curser gets a chat warning. Enforced centrally in `SkillAction`, so no per-skill code is needed.
- **Tripwire cooldown mode** — replaces the fixed wire limit with a Replicator-style cooldown. Players can place as many wires as they want as long as the cooldown is up; remaining time is shown on the HUD. Configurable via `Cooldown` in skillsInfo.json (default 20s).
- **Tripwire team colors** — T wires red (255, 64, 64), CT wires blue (64, 128, 255).
## Fixed
- **ExpensiveAmmo** also charged money for knife swings and grenade throws. It now only charges when a bullet-firing weapon is fired.
- **Knockback** also triggered on grenade throws; bound to the same allowlist.
## Removed
- Dead code: `Earthquake.cs` and `HealingChicken.cs` (neither was registered in the `Skills` enum, so neither ever ran), `EntityManager.CreateTrackedEnvShake`, `EntityManager.CreateTrackedChicken`, `PlayerManager.UpdatePlayerSkill`.
## Changed
- **Tripwire wires are now removed when the owner dies or loses the skill.** Previously they stayed on the map until the end of the round.
- `PlayerEvents.cs` split into three partial files: player events in `PlayerEvents.cs`, round and skill dispatch in `RoundEvents.cs`, entity and weapon hooks in `EntityEvents.cs`. Behaviour is unchanged; all members stay in the same `Event` class.
- 28 copy-pasted enemy-gathering LINQ chains reduced to the shared helper (Bankrupt, CarefulBullets, Darkness, Deactivator, Deaf, ExpensiveAmmo, Giant, Glitch, Jammer, JumpBan, JumpCurse, LifeSwap, Magnifier, MoneySwap, Nightmare, Poison, PrimaryBan, WildThrow).
