The purpose of this plugin, in conjunction with my server, is to ping people when streamers play their maps so they can join the stream and watch / chat / backseat.

If you are not a streamer this plugin is not useful to you

If you are a chatter and want to get pinged when streamers using this plugin play your maps, join my discord at https://discord.gg/BKdCfuauyY

Valid streamers for the plugin are added manually; I've added most of the larger streamers already, but after installing the plugin check if the notification is an authentication error; you may need to ping me (@ArEyeses) on discord and I can add you. Note that the default viewer count for people to be pinged is 20 (to stop the plugin being used as self-promotion), so for small streamers not every mapper will get pinged.

Performance impact

  • This plugin does very little, it checks if the map has changed and only then sends a request to my server.

Disabling the plugin

  • My server should only send pings to discord if you are live (but idk if this is 100% consistent)
  • You can also see the status of and disable the plugin from the top Openplanet bar

Privacy

  • My server is sent information such as the map name and uid, map author name and login (id), your name and login (id).
  • A notification is shown on start up to remind you that the plugin is active.
  • Stored information:
    • Your login id (required for authentication along with a session token)
    • The most recent map you played (while live), and when you played it. (This is to prevent duplicate pings if you reopen the same map)
    • some logs are kept, for debugging purposes
  • If you opt-in to additional tracking, the maps you play (along with which streamer you are) may be saved, shared, and/or used for data analysis; e.g. statistics on rmc runs.
