BestViewDistance (OUTDATED !)

Please use View Distance Tweaks instead.


A view distance plugin for Paper. Created to boost ping/tps and view distance.

How it works ?

This plugin chooses the best view distance for your players. The view distance is calculated based on your ping and the TPS of the server. If the TPS are low, the view distance is reduced by a percentage called "reduction indice". The reduction indice changes according to the TPS of the server.

This plugin reduces players lag, reduces players ping and optimizes your server a better view distance.

Dependencies

Please download Paper ! https://papermc.io It's better than spigot and bukkit. Also provide you a lot of optimizations and options. [WARNING] ProtocolLib is needed ONLY for 1.12.X and below!

Commands / Permissions

/view server => Get reduction indice.
/view tps => Get server's tps.
/view ping <player> => Get player ping.
/view <player> => Get player actual view distance and his max view distance.
/view => Get help

Permission : "view.check"

/view reload => Reload plugin config. Need "view.reload"
/vdist => Allows your players to see their own view distance. Need "view.info"
/vping => Allows your players to see their own ping. Need "view.info"

Permission for update checker : "view.update"

Bypass algorithm : "view.set.x" (3 to 32)
(Example : view.set.15 set a view dist of 15 chunks)
Does not work with "*"/"*.*" permissions nodes !

Version: 2.2 # Version of the config file. Don't change this value.

Features:
  UseLoginView: true # Use a custom view on login
  UseAFKView: true # Use a custom view if the player is AFK.
  UsePing: true # The plugin will give a custom view distance for each players
  UseTasks: true # Use tasks. Turn this off will reduce lags, but view distance will change slower.
  UseFlyingView: false # Use a custom view if the player is flying.
  UseTeleportView: false # Use a custom view on teleport. Can reduce freeze on teleport.
  UsePermissions: false # Enable permissions (view.set.x) to bypass algorithm.

ViewDistance:
  Min: 4 # Minimum view distance (Minimum: 3)
  Max: 16 # Maximum view distance (Maximum: 32)
  OnLogin: 4 # View distance on login
  OnAFK: 3 # AFK view distance (If UseAFKView is on true)
  OnTeleport: 4 # View distance on teleport (If UseTeleportView is on true)
  OnFlying: 12 # View distance if flying (If UseFlyingView is on true)
  MoreThanSettings: 0 # Add x chunks more than player's settings.

Delay:
  CalculationsDelay: 1 # Delay in seconds to actualize calculations
  SetViewDelay: 5 # Delay in seconds to actualize global view distance
  UnsetTeleportViewDelay: 3 # Delay in seconds to unset the OnTeleport custom view
  CheckFlyingDelay: 5 # Delay in seconds before set the OnFlying view distance
  AFKDelay: 90 # Delay in seconds before set the OnAFK view distance

Settings:
  TpsLimit: 19.5 # Below: Decrease Reduction Indice // Over: Increase Reduction Indice.
  TpsChangeIndice: 0.01 # How much we had to increase/decrease the reduction indice. 0.01 = 1%
  MaxReductionIndice: 0.75 # Maximum Reduction Indice (0.75 = 75%)
  SafePing: 1 # Set this value to 0 for local hosting.
  PingForReduction: 550 # Ping required to decrease view distance
  PingForAugmentation: 90 # Ping required to increase view distance

Permissions:
  BypassAFKView: true # Player with permissions (view.set.x) can bypass the "OnAFK" view.
  BypassTeleportView: true # Player with permissions (view.set.x) can bypass the "OnTeleport" view.
  BypassFlyingView: true # Player with permissions (view.set.x) can bypass the "OnFlying" view.

Misc:
  DecimalsTPS: 2 # How many decimals for the %VDIST_DECIMAL_TPS% placeholder
  DecimalsIndice: 2 # How many decimals for the %VDIST_REDUCTION_INDICE_DECIMAL% placeholder
  HideVdistLine4: false # Hide the 4th line of the /vdist command
  CheckUpdates: true # Check for updates
  Metrics: true # Send anonymous stats
  • Messages.yml File.
