DeathNotes

# Death Notes **Death Notes** is a Rust plugin that broadcasts deaths with a sleek GUI kill feed. It provides detailed information about PvP, PvE, and environmental deaths, including weapon types, distances, and kill streaks. ## Features - **GUI Kill Feed:** Displays death notices in a customizable UI overlay rather than just chat. - **Kill Streaks:** Tracks player kill streaks and records the best streaks on the server. - **Detailed Combat Info:** Displays distance, weapon used, and specific icons for headshots or explosions. - **Revenge System:** Detects and flags "Revenge" kills when a player kills their previous killer. - **Advanced Tracking:** Supports specific death types including flamethrowers, fireballs, and bleeding. - **Categorized Styling:** Different background colors for PvP, PvE, Environmental, and Special deaths. --- ## Permissions This plugin uses the following permissions to control visibility: - `deathnotes.cansee` - Allows a player to see the kill feed (required if `Require Permission` is enabled in config). - `deathnotes.cantsee` - Prevents a player from seeing the kill feed. - `deathnotes.suppress` - Can be used to suppress death messages for specific players. --- ## Commands ### Chat Commands - `/streak` - Displays your current and best kill streak. - `/topstreaks` - Displays the top 5 kill streaks currently recorded on the server. ### Console Commands - `deathnotes.test` - Adds a test entry to the kill feed to verify UI positioning and styling. --- ## Configuration The configuration file allows you to modify UI positioning, colors, timeouts, and tracking settings. ### Default Configuration ```json { "UI Settings": { "Anchor Min (screen position)": "0.0 0.65", "Anchor Max (screen position)": "0.3 0.95", "Background Color": "0 0 0 0", "Entry Background Color": "0.1 0.1 0.1 0.85", "Entry Background Color (PvP)": "0.6 0.1 0.1 0.75", "Entry Background Color (PvE)": "0.1 0.4 0.1 0.75", "Entry Background Color (Death)": "0.3 0.1 0.1 0.75", "Entry Background Color (Special)": "0.5 0.3 0.0 0.85" }, "Kill Feed Settings": { "Max Entries Shown": 5, "Entry Display Time (seconds)": 6.0, "Show Distance": true, "Show Weapon": true, "Show Headshot Icon": true, "Show Kill Streak": true, "Show Revenge": true, "Use Metric Distance": true, "PvP Only Mode": false, "Show in Chat Too": false, "Show in Console": true }, "Kill Streak Settings": { "Enabled": true, "Timeout (seconds)": 120.0, "Milestones": [3, 5, 7, 10, 15, 20], "Min Streak to Show": 3, "Announce Streak End (min kills)": 5 }, "General Settings": { "Message Radius (-1 for global)": -1, "Require Permission": false, "Debug Mode": false } }
