Problem

Players on Main saw other players on Xaero's minimap entity radar again after the unclean shutdown at 16:19 UTC on 2026-09-29.

The Xaero's Map Server Utils datapack sends the fair-play code once, tags the player with xa_autorun, and only resends it after the player's leave_game stat rises. When the server dies before saving, players keep the tag with a stat of 0, so their next join sends nothing. The saved mode (#mode = 4, silent fair-play) was intact, which is why autorun/set/... did not help.

Change

  • XaeroFairPlayListener sends §f§a§i§r§x§a§e§r§o 20 ticks after every join. It keeps no state, so a crash cannot desynchronise it.
  • The code goes out as a plain Component.text. sendMessage(String) would parse the section signs into styles and Xaero would no longer match the raw string.
  • xaero-fair-play in config.yml (default true) turns it off. Existing configs need no change.
  • Online players also get the code on enable, which covers a plugin reload.

After deploying, run /function xaero:autorun/set/disabled (or remove the datapack) so players do not get the code twice.

Testing

  • mvn verify passes, including three new XaeroFairPlayListenerTest cases (delayed send, raw content, offline and disabled skips).
  • Not yet checked against a real Xaero client.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Players receive Xaero’s Minimap fair-play information shortly after joining. Players already online also receive it when the plugin reloads.
    • The notice can be enabled or disabled in the configuration and is enabled by default.
    • The information states that entity radar and cave mode are excluded.
    • The notice is sent only while the player is online.

Xaero's Map Server Utils only resends the code after a player's leave_game
stat rises. An unclean shutdown skips the save, so returning players keep
the xa_autorun tag with no pending leave and get their entity radar back.

Send the raw code a second after each join instead, with no stored state.
xaero-fair-play in config.yml turns it off.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds a default-enabled configuration option for the Xaero fair-play message. The listener schedules the message 20 ticks after a player joins. During listener registration, the plugin also sends the message to players already online.

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 3b1d7

The registration-time delivery behavior is implemented; adding a test would guard the reload path. No production failure is established, so no merge-blocking risk remains.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 3b1d7

The new path avoids the crash-related state problem and covers players already online during a plugin reload. There is still uncertainty about whether Xaero applies the message before radar can show other players during the one-second join delay. The old datapack should not be retired until that behavior is confirmed.

Retained concerns

  • Medium · security · inferred: Fair-play delivery occurs 20 ticks after joining. If Xaero exposes entity radar before it processes the code, other players may be visible during that interval; the available tests cannot establish client-side timing or parsing.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — A connecting player triggers a message to their own client. A failure of the replacement fair-play control could affect visibility of other players to Xaero users on the server; the changed path does not show a new privileged data-store or cross-service access path.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — No client-side exposure is verified. The unresolved path is a player joining while fair-play delivery is pending, or receiving a message the client does not recognize, and viewing other players on radar before the control takes effect.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — PlayerJoinEvent initiates server-to-client delivery. The server checks feature enablement and online status before sending, but the visible server code cannot prove the client's fair-play response.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • inferred — Stateless per-join scheduling and the online-player sweep address the described crash and reload recovery cases. The online check suppresses sends to players who have left; duplicate identical sends from overlapping joins or handoff do not by themselves establish weaker enforcement.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Verify the literal message and join-time radar behavior with a real Xaero client before retiring the datapack, then confirm the replacement remains active through restart and reload.

Assert the independent 20-tick delay.

The test uses JOIN_DELAY_TICKS as both the scheduler argument and the expected value. If JOIN_DELAY_TICKS changes to 0 or another value, the test still passes. Compare the captured delay with 20L so the test detects a scheduling regression.

Suggested fix
-        verify(scheduler).runTaskLater(eq(plugin), task.capture(), eq(XaeroFairPlayListener.JOIN_DELAY_TICKS));
+        verify(scheduler).runTaskLater(eq(plugin), task.capture(), eq(20L));

296-298: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Add a registration-path test for online players.

XaeroFairPlayListenerTest does not call TFMCCore.registerListeners(). Add a test that supplies an online player through getOnlinePlayers() and asserts delivery of XaeroFairPlayListener.FAIR_PLAY. This protects the reload dispatch against removal or omission without indicating a current production failure.
