DupeWatch
DupeWatch is a Bukkit/Spigot anti-cheat investigation plugin focused on duplicate item detection, economy intelligence, and staff-driven case management.
Feature Categories
️ Core Detection Engine & Item Protection
- Adaptive Machine Learning: an intelligent system that refines detection accuracy from staff review decisions.
- Cryptographic Item Hashing: unique salted hashes for every item.
- UUID Instance Fingerprinting: immutable per-item instance fingerprints for cloned-item detection.
- Real-Time Asynchronous Inventory Scanning: scans inventories without blocking the server thread.
- Full NBT Analysis: inspects custom item data and modded item metadata.
- Weighted Suspicion Scoring: only raises alerts when multiple independent risk factors align.
Economy Intelligence & Money Monitoring
- Context-Aware Alerts: compares player gains against server-wide economic norms.
- Growth Pattern Recognition: flags suspicious geometric or exponential balance changes.
- Dirty Money Tracing: trails illicit currency as it moves through players and economy channels.
- Smart Activity Filtering: excludes legitimate income sources like vote rewards and shop sales.
- Impossible Balance Spike Detection: detects sudden, unnaturally large balance surges.
Behavioral Analysis & Player Tracking
- Three Threat Strictness Profiles: Low, Normal, and Aggressive tracking modes.
- Container Interaction Timelines: records chest, barrel, and storage block histories.
- Cross-Session Block Edit Correlation: links block edits across sessions for setup pattern detection.
- Player Network Analysis: maps item and money exchange relationships to identify mule or alt networks.
Professional Case Management
- Evidence Chain Logging: full chronological timelines of suspicious activity with timestamps.
- Staff Collaboration Tools: persistent internal case notes and investigator updates.
- Offline Inventory Inspection: audit player inventory, ender chest, and equipment while offline.
- Automatic CoreProtect Integration: captures relevant block and container history around incidents.
- One-Click Case Export: export investigation data as structured files for backup or discord review.
️ Visual Analytics & Heatmaps
- Interactive Item Spread Graphs: visualize how a suspected item traveled through the server.
- Visual Money Flow Propagation Maps: map currency transfer paths and laundering behavior.
- Hotspot Heatmaps: display high-frequency container action and suspicious interaction zones.
- Hotspot Teleportation: jump directly to suspicious coordinates discovered by heatmaps.
️ In-Game Management & Custom Rules
- 99% GUI-Driven Workflow: manage cases, rules, and analytics through in-game inventory menus.
- In-Hand Rule Creation: build custom watch rules from an item held in hand.
- Custom Threshold Configuration: define item-specific detection and quantity thresholds.
- Flexible Trigger Actions: choose Alert, Remove, or custom Command execution.
Discord & API Integration
- Rich Embed Webhooks: send formatted alerts to Discord staff channels.
- Configurable Alert Thresholds: reduce noise by only notifying on high-certainty cases.
- Case Summary Links: include quick-access evidence links inside Discord alerts.
- Developer API Flags: expose hooks and plugin flags for third-party integrations.
⚡ Performance Optimization
- Zero TPS Impact Architecture: offloads heavy processing off the main server thread.
- High Concurrent Player Optimization: built for 100–500+ player environments.
- Smart Caching Engine: caches high-frequency data to reduce database load.
- Batch Operations: groups database writes to minimize I/O overhead.
