ViewDistanceTweaks v2.4

Dynamic view distance and simulation distance adjustment per world — lightweight, fully configurable, and built for performance-critical servers.

Changelog

• Fixed manual distance overrides not actually holding: /vdt simulationdistance and /vdt viewdistance without --duration were supposed to lock the value until /vdt reload, but the automatic engine would silently start adjusting away from it again within a few check cycles. It now actually holds until reload, as intended.
• Fixed a connection leak in the update checker (connections weren't always being closed properly).
• Improved thread-safety in the performance-tracking code used by bStats metrics, avoiding a rare race condition.

Dependencies

• Paper 1.21.x / 26.x — required
• PlaceholderAPI — optional
