Since Statz is a newly created plugin, there are bound to be some bugs and shortcomings. This update fixes most of the bugs and introduces full MySQL support.

Changes include:

• GriefPrevention is now supported by Statz. Statz can obtain four new data entries:
  1. Number of claims of a player
  2. Number of claimed blocks of a player
  3. Number of remaining blocks a player can claim
  4. Number of bonus blocks a player can claim
• Fixed an error when players were moving incorrectly and Statz tried to calculate the distance of their incorrect movement
• Fixed a major bug that gave players that had no data stored in the Statz database an incorrect starting value. Usually, this value was the combined of all values in the database at the time of searching. I apologize for this incorrect behavior. Some values of players should be manually reset to correct it.
• Add MySQL support! Statz will now use either SQLite (for those who don't have access to a MySQL database) or MySQL to store its data. You can configure your database settings in the configuration file.
• Fixed errors that had to do with the concurrent modifying and reading of data lists.
• Changed around some of the API functions (mostly interesting for developers, not so much for admins).
• Fixed issue that stopped Statz from saving data to its database when the server was stopped before Statz finished its 'save cycle'
• Statz will now inform the console whether it uses MySQL or SQLite and if it could connect to the database.
• Statz now uses batch processing of updates that are sent to the server to improve performance and decrease server load. (see this commit for more info)

Like always, I'm not done with updating Statz. If you find any bugs or think of a new feature you want Statz to have, post it in the forum! Note, though, that I'm on holiday and do not have all the time in the world.

Lastly, if you run Autorank. Do not upgrade to this version of Statz and wait for Autorank 3.9. Autorank 3.8 and Statz 1.2 do not work together!
