Release
4.2.0

DemonZ released VelocityNavigator version 4.2.0 on May 30, 2026

Added

  • Embedded Prometheus Exporter & Admin Panel — Built-in HTTP server exposing real-time metrics (/metrics) on routing distributions, pings, CB statuses, and connection events.
  • Grafana Dashboard Setup Command/vn setup grafana auto-generates a premium, pre-configured Grafana telemetry dashboard configuration JSON file.
  • Interactive Selector Menus — Native Bedrock Form GUI (via Geyser/Floodgate integration) and clickable Java Chat Selector Menu with hover tooltips displaying health and latencies.
  • Ping-Based Routing Strategy (latency) — Dynamically select the server with the lowest ping latency to optimize player connections.

Fixed

  • Hardened Java and Bedrock lobby menu selections so stale or manually forged choices cannot bypass drain mode, circuit breakers, capacity checks, or configured lobby pools.
  • Started the Prometheus exporter during initial proxy boot when enabled, not only after /vn reload.
  • Restored true consecutive-failure behavior for the circuit breaker.
  • Preserved update notification settings during config rewrites and aligned admin join notifications with [update_checker].notify_admins.
  • Accepted the documented latency routing mode in config validation and migration normalization.
  • Normalized contextual group names consistently so mixed-case mappings continue to route.
  • Aligned Maven artifact version, Velocity plugin metadata, and user-facing docs for the 4.2.0 release.

Changed

  • Config version bumped to 6. The generated navigator.toml has been completely redesigned with section banners, grouped documentation, and a friendlier layout. Existing configs are auto-migrated and backed up.
