Auto-Trim System Improvements in 1.0.2

Overview

Refactored the automatic trimming system to provide clearer control and better UX with separate time-based and message count-based triggering methods.

Settings Changes

1. New "Automatic Trim Method" Dropdown

Replaced: Old boolean "Enable Automatic Trimming" setting
New: Dropdown with three options

  • Disabled (Manual Only) - No automatic trimming (default)
  • By Message Count - Trim when message count reaches threshold
  • By Time Elapsed - Trim after specified hours have passed

Benefit: Clearer UX with explicit method selection instead of confusing multiple boolean flags

2. Time-Based Auto-Trim Enhancements

Removed 50-Message Minimum Requirement

  • Before: Time-based trimming required at least 50 messages
  • After: Time-based trimming works independently, no message count requirement

New "Pause Timer When Game Paused" Setting

Gives GMs control over how time-based trimming behaves during game pause:

  • Enabled: Timer stops counting when game is paused
  • Disabled (default): Timer continues counting real-world time regardless of pause state

Use Cases:

  • Enable for games that pause between sessions
  • Disable for always-on servers or real-world time tracking

3. Better User Feedback

Console Logging

  • Shows which method triggered the auto-trim
  • Example: "Auto-trim triggered by message count (60/50 = 10 keep + 50 buffer)"
  • Example: "Auto-trim triggered by time threshold (4.2 hours elapsed)"

Updated Setting Hints

Each setting now clearly states when it applies:

  • "Only applies when 'Automatic Trim Method' is set to 'By Message Count'"
  • "Only applies when 'Automatic Trim Method' is set to 'By Time Elapsed'"
