The DropTracker has undergone a large number of changes since our last update post.
As always, if you have any questions, suggestions, or feedback please reach out in our Discord server.
Internal (API/Discord bot) Changes
- Players are now able to subscribe to upgrade their group, unlocking additional features such as video submissions and customizable embedded message layouts.
- Level-Ups and Experience Milestones have been implemented into the back-end, allowing them to process and send notifications through Discord accurately.
- The API has had a few enhancements to the way it reads and processes submissions, in attempts to help ensure data loss does not occur under any circumstances.
- Points can now be awarded on a group-specific scale, so that groups are able to leverage a custom points system to keep their own form of player leaderboard, or to run events based on them.
RuneLite plugin changes (pending)
Note: These changes require a full plugin update, which is not yet live. Keep your eye on our announcements channel to stay in-the-loop on when it goes live.- Implemented the ability for submissions to send video captureas opposed to only screenshots.
- Leverages a frame-by-frame, in-memory rolling buffer of JPEG frames, which can be converted to a video file and uploaded with little-to-no user interference/effect.
- Implemented a more verbose and less error-prone submission lifecycle, transforming the SubmissionManager into a more authoritative method of communication that is less prone to request-related issues.
- Fixed The Gauntlet and The Corrupted Gauntlet drop tracking logic.
- Adjusted the way we determine if an untradeable drop is 'valueable', ensuring that NPEs do not result in a failed submission--instead, we assume a screenshot is not required when nulls occur.
