Changelog - Version 1.6.9 (Dev)

I cannot say with 100% certainty that the bug has been fully resolved, as I was unable to replicate it. However, I have made a series of changes to the synchronization code and implemented several improvements to prevent this from happening again and to minimize any potential impact.

Key Improvements & Fixes

• Data Synchronization: Reworked balance sync logic. Added automatic synchronization retry logic after a failed attempt and improved logging.
• Bug Fixes: Fixed a critical bug where a zero balance could be saved after an Exception. Resolved various potential errors and data corruption risks.
• Placeholder Overhaul: Refactored PAPI and MiniPlaceholders into a dedicated PlaceholderHelper class with lazy initialization. This ensures consistency and cleaner code.
• Internal Updates: Updated Flyway, cleaned up unused functions, and improved internal API handling (AccountAPI, task management).

Debug & Admin Tools
New debug commands have been added for server administrators to test database stability and cache states.

• /eco debug failmode – Toggles database error simulation on/off.
  (Permission: lite.eco.admin.debug.failmode)
• /eco debug test-janitor <player> – Runs an automated test simulating a database error and credits $500.
  (Permission: lite.eco.admin.debug.testjanitor)
• /eco debug janitor – Immediately triggers automatic synchronization.
  (Permission: lite.eco.admin.debug.janitor)
• /eco debug inspect <player> – Displays a detailed readout of the player's cache.
  (Permission: lite.eco.admin.debug.inspect)
• /eco debug stress <player> [iterations] – Runs a concurrent stress test for transaction atomicity.
  (Permission: lite.eco.admin.debug.stress)

*Note: Messages for these commands are hardcoded and not included in localization files as they are intended for administrative use only.*
