Releases · spencerwooo/PaimonMenuBar

This is an incremental update from v1.12.126.

🚀 Important update

Due to how Mihoyo updated this API, our original method of updating every 8 minutes WILL trigger a captcha.

To workaround this, PaimonMenuBar now updates your data locally as time passes, instead of waiting for an API request - this means Paimon would require only a data update (API request) every 1 to 3 hours only - to keep data fresh.

MAKE SURE to reconfigure this inside preferences (update interval) after updating to this release, to update your local settings:

We recommend 2 hours interval.

🆕 New: How Paimon updates its data?

Paimon will only fetch from the remote API when:

The interval timer (set inside preferences) of 1-6 hrs is triggered.
You click on the menubar icon to check stats manually.
Internal throttle of 8 minutes per request is not triggered.

In all other cases, Paimon will either not update, or only self-update locally each minute (which is an estimate based on elapsed time from last update time), including resin counter and expedition progress.

Others

You can now configure whether or not to show the resin counter beside the resin icon in your menubar (#18)
From this version on, Paimon will not send notifications each time the API fails to fetch (#21). Instead, a new status icon in the dropdown would indicate whether the last update was successful. If not, then you may need to check for captchas (in the official APP).

This release should be superseded by v1.12.128.
