BotSentry-9.6-THANATOS

ADDITIONS
- It is now possible to add your own IP detection systems, instead of relying solely on BotSentry's backend. Read below for more information.
- Any commands that allow for IP input, now allow to add multiple IPs at once: /bs whitelist add 1.1.1.1/28,1.2.3.4
- - This command will add both all IPs in the range of 1.1.1.1/28 and the IP 1.2.3.4. Items should be split between commas, ranges should be given with a slash.
- Added the import subcommand for whitelisting/blacklisting: /bs <blacklist/whitelist> import <file>. This will import all IPs from the file and add it to the given list.
- - Every line should be the same format as shown above. Either a single range, single IP or split with commas.
- Allow running on Folia, support cannot be granted as Folia is still in development stage. (Issue #110)

CHANGES
- The MySQL connection now allows the usage of SSL. It will try to first connect using SSL, if that is not possible, without. (Issue #117)
- BungeeCord now respects any filters that have already been set, instead of replacing any logging filters. (Issue #115)
- Proxies/VPNs cannot simply whitelist themselves using notbot.es, when the server has explicitly disabled it.

FIXES
- Fixed error message that said an older MySQL driver was being loaded. (Issue #113)
- Fixed bugs for servers running locally and retrieving local IPs.
- Fixed bugs with PacketListenerAPI, by completely removing it. Amazon is now completely disabled on Spigot like systems. (Issue #112 & #114)
- Fixed bugs with AntiBot Mode not going off automatically in some cases. (Issue #102)
- Little code improvements.

Custom IP Detection
Custom IP Detection, this can be used when the BotSentry servers are not good enough in detecting IPs.
When this is enabled, it will first fetch the status of the first provider. If that provider fails, it will continue to the next one. If all fail, the BotSentry servers will be used.
AntiProxy/AntiBotMode only change the settings for the sensitivity of the BotSentry servers, this will fully be managed
by the providers entered here.
Protocols:
When the status of an IP should be found, BotSentry sends a POST request to the URL provided.
This POST request retrieves as input a JSON like so: {"ips":["1.2.3.4","5.6.7.8","9.0.1.2"]}.
BotSentry expects a JSON back in the following way: {"ips":[{"ip":"1.2.3.4","blocked":true},{"ip":"5.6.7.8","blocked":false}]}
For these examples, BotSentry acts as the following: 1.2.3.4 will be blocked, 5.6.7.8 will be allowed,
since the status is unclear of 9.0.1.2 on this provider. It will send it to the next one (or to BotSentry's servers).
The links in the customProviders array, should start with either http:// or https://.

Plugin Publisher
Between this and the last update, the plugin ownership has been completely transferred to Lahuca Software Development. The development was already being done by them for over 3 years.

CHANGES

- We got a domain to shorten the content of the captcha site, now it will tell the new users during attack to verify in https://notbot.es, so its shorter and easier for them.

FIXED

- Fixed that sometimes the plugin was not able to take the ip and port of the server in some bungeecord versions and forks.

· New firewall-blacklisting system to blacklist the bots internally
· New check to prevent certain countries from joining your server during attack (blacklisting them), this new feature is capable of blocking A LOT of bots, nearly the 99% of the attack instantly if you configurate it well.

ATTENTION! You have to reset the config.yml for this update!!

» Fixed a way of attack that made bots only ping more than 10.000 times per second ending with a OutOfMemory error and server crashing (actually the only antibot stopping it)
» Fixed that PingLimit check wasn't banning bots
» Fixed a console error on stopping the BungeeCord
» Now, with the PingLimit check working, more than 1000 IPs will get banned instantly in the first second of attack

Update 4.0.2 will arrive before 1 january!

Re-generate your config.yml, as this .jar contains a config that will reduce false positive chance to 1%, one of every 5000 real players in a bot attack have a chance.

Update 4.0.2 is so close, the new update will remove all false-positive chances and the known incompatiblity issue!


We are aware that there is a compatiblity issue where 1.12 players can't use items, this will be fixed in update 4.0.2! Comming before 1 january!!!

Please, until the update 4.0.2 is not out yet, use this new config.yml.

This config will reduce the false-positive chance to 0 , but in a brute way, so, until 4.0.2 is not released, use this config (Dev and Owner highly recommendation)
