Changelog

0.3.4

• Debt-cleared feedback reliability — Attach halo to the player head bone (vanilla skill-up path), use crafting-bonus pop with fallbacks, and log clearly if EnableDebtClearedSound is still off. Default for that setting is now true (existing configs must be set to true once).

0.3.3

• Fix Dodge (and similar) debt paydown — Debt XP split now hooks Skills.RaiseSkill. Dodge awards XP by calling that method directly and never went through Player.RaiseSkill, so debt stayed stuck while the skill still leveled.
• Debt-cleared feedback — When enabled, uses a red-tinted skill-levelup halo plus the vanilla crafting-bonus pop (InventoryGui.m_craftBonusEffect).

0.3.2

• Fix server config sync crash — Removed ambiguous ZNet.GetPeer reflection lookup (two overloads exist); peers are resolved via GetPeers() instead.

0.3.1

• Fix startup crash — Server config sync patched ZNet.Stop, which does not exist in Valheim; now correctly hooks ZNet.Shutdown to clear the session overlay on disconnect.

0.3.0

• Server gameplay config sync — EnableMod, DebtPaydownShare, and MaxDebtPerSkill are pushed from server/host to joining clients for the session (in-memory only; local cfg unchanged). Join message shows server rules; mismatch warning if local EnableMod differs.
• [Visual] config section — global DebtBarColor, DebtTextColor, DebtTextSize (client-only, not server synced).
• Maroon debt bar — debt segment on the gold skill level bar, with configurable colors.
• Debt cleared feedback — optional client-side halo + sound (EnableDebtClearedSound, default off).
• Soft-death clarity — top-left message: "Soft death — no skill debt".
• Lifetime repaid — /show debt lifetime <skill> shows lifetime incurred and lifetime repaid together.
• Focus paydown — /focus <skill|all|off> and /show focus for voluntary 100% paydown until debt clears (per-character, not server synced).
• Skill-cap mod compatibility (best-effort) — debt bar scale follows the skills panel level bar; not author-tested with skill-cap mods — please report issues.
• Dev commands — EnableDevCommands is server/host only (not server synced); still requires Valheim devcommands and admin rights.

0.2.0

• Paid-off baseline tracking — paidOff = baseline − currentDebt (replaces lifetime-based progress display)
• MaxDebtPerSkill config — cap current debt per skill (0 = uncapped, default 3)
• Paydown overshoot fix — leftover paydown XP routes to leveling when debt would be exceeded
• DebtPaydownShare range — now 0.5–1.0 (default still 0.5)
• Lifetime commands — /show debt lifetime <skill> and /show debt lifetime all
• Privacy confirmation — debt stored in Player.m_customData (character save), not player ZDO
• Thunderstore release package with icon and documentation

0.1.9

• Remove F8 / ShowDebtKey hotkey surface.
• Add /show debt all for a readable multi-line rounded debt overview.

0.1.8

• Fix skill-panel debt hover by appending progress to the existing row UITooltip (same system as vanilla skill descriptions).
• Make F8 print a readable one-skill-per-line rounded overview to chat; exact decimals remain on /show debt <skill>.

0.1.7

• Track lifetime debt incurred per skill and show remaining + paid-off progress (4 decimals) on F8, /show debt <skill>, and skill-panel hover tooltip.
• Skip CP-06 exp-estimate approach in favor of this progress display.

0.1.6

• Show red -X debt text on the vanilla skill panel via SkillsDialog.Setup postfix (sibling of bonustext, does not touch SEMan).

0.1.5

• Persist debt in Player.m_customData (character save) instead of ephemeral player ZDO floats that die on respawn.
• Expand F8 debt-check diagnostics to log player identity, storage path, and per-skill keys.

0.1.2

• Add dev-only console commands gated by EnableDevCommands (default false).

0.1.1

• Add unconditional runtime diagnostics for death and skill patch entry.
• Add patch-registration startup logging for key Harmony targets.
• Bump version to avoid stale duplicate-plugin resolution.

0.1.0

• Initial scaffold and MVP debt mechanic implementation.
