Bot Mother DC - Release Notes

Version 1.2.1 - Stability & Auto-Recovery Update

Release Date: December 4, 2025

Overview

This update focuses on stability improvements, configuration auto-recovery, and fixes for the cryptocurrency payment system. Existing server installations will now automatically recover from corrupted configuration files.

New Features

Configuration Auto-Recovery System

The plugin now automatically detects and recovers corrupted configuration files.

How it works:

• On startup, plugin validates all YAML configuration files
• If a corrupted file is detected, it's automatically backed up (.backup extension)
• The corrupted file is replaced with the correct default version
• New configuration keys are automatically merged into existing files

Affected files:

• All language files (languages/*.yml)
• All config files (configs/*.yml)

Console output examples:

[Bot Mother DC] Backed up corrupted language file to: pt_br.yml.backup
[Bot Mother DC] Replaced corrupted language file: pt_br.yml
[Bot Mother DC] Updated language file with new keys: en.yml

Configuration Auto-Update System

Existing configuration files are now automatically updated with new keys from updates:

• LanguageManager - Auto-merges new translation keys
• ConfigManager - Auto-merges new config options
• CryptoConfigManager - Auto-merges crypto settings
• StripeConfigManager - Auto-merges Stripe settings
• PositionsConfigManager - Auto-merges position settings
• NormsConfigManager - Auto-merges moderation settings
• ChatConfigManager - Auto-merges chat settings

Bug Fixes

Shop System

• Fixed shop and Config-Shop only appearing when Stripe was configured
• Shop now works correctly with crypto-only mode (payment-mode: crypto)

Language Files

• Fixed YAML syntax error in pt_br.yml that caused plugin startup failure
• Added missing translation keys to en.yml
• Fixed orphan text lines causing YAML parsing errors

Cryptocurrency System

• Added sender wallet address verification modal
• Fixed session expiration handling
• Improved error messages for invalid wallet addresses

Technical Details

Auto-Recovery Algorithm

// 1. Try to load existing config
try {
    existingConfig = YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(file);
} catch (Exception e) {
    isCorrupted = true;
}

// 2. If corrupted, backup and replace
if (isCorrupted) {
    Files.copy(file.toPath(), backupFile.toPath(), REPLACE_EXISTING);
    file.delete();
    plugin.saveResource("languages/" + lang + ".yml", true);
}

// 3. If valid, merge new keys
for (String key : defaultConfig.getKeys(true)) {
    if (!existingConfig.contains(key)) {
        existingConfig.set(key, defaultConfig.get(key));
    }
}

Upgrade Notes
