- Treat null GameRules as "not ready" so skills are never assigned during
warmup right after plugin load/hot-reload (SetSkill + RoundStart)
- PerfLog writes a header line on first measurement so the perf file
appears immediately when PerfMode is active
- GeoLite/MaxMind lookup wrapped in try/catch and disabled for the session on failure
(stops the per-tick exception spam when the assembly cannot load during hot-reload)
- New PerfMode config option: writes performance logs to logs/perf_<date>.txt
(DisableAll/SetSkill/PlayerDeath totals, per-skill SkillAction timings,
aggregated OnTick/CheckTransmit avg-max summaries)
- css_reload now invalidates the skill-info and freeze-time caches
- Removed the last null-forgiving player lookups (Command, Armored, Baseball,
FriendlyFire, OneShot)
Performance & stability pass (issue #34 + audit)
General:
- DisableAll resets only skills active in the previous round instead of all loaded skills (~89ms -> ~5ms)
- Removed per-tick LINQ/allocations, O(1) HUD skill lookups, translation substitutions moved to load time
- ForceFullUpdate creates the network service once per broadcast; view-angle guard only skips a genuine (0,0,0) placeholder
- Debug hooks/logging only active when DebugMode is enabled (single reused writer)
- Player skill state unified to a single collection (fixes a rare disconnect race)
- Gamedata signatures resolved lazily/isolated; hardened tick/transmit paths against invalid handles
- Description HUD honours always-show / -1 duration consistently across all assignment paths
Skills:
- Jester: fixed the no-damage effect leaking after a mid-round skill change (Thief/Deactivator)
- Jackal: fixed trail entities accumulating over a round
- Falcon Eye / Third Eye / Spectator: camera state cleared on disable
Also: added missing translation keys as untranslated markers across language files.
