v1.2.0

v1.2.0

New Features:

• Cosmetics: Eye effects — killstreak-style particles attached to eyeglow_L/eyeglow_R via info_particle_system. Zero dependencies (no TF2Attributes). Includes Fire Horns, Cerebral Discharge, Tornado, Flames, Singularity, Incinerator
• Cosmetics: Death effects — two modes: native ragdoll flags (gold, ice, ash, electro) that flip bools on TF2's tf_ragdoll entity, or custom particle names spawned at death position with auto-cleanup
• Cosmetics: Pets — parented prop_dynamic_override at 50% scale, attached to player. Zero timers, engine handles positioning. Config-driven model paths
• Core: New DB columns equipped_eye, equipped_death, equipped_pet with schema migration (v2→v3)
• Core: CosmeticType enum extended with Cosmetic_Eye, Cosmetic_Death, Cosmetic_Pet (7 total)
• Core: Get/Set equipped natives handle all 7 cosmetic types

Bug Fixes:

• Core: Fixed Spy Dead Ringer feign deaths awarding XP and kill count to attackers — feign deaths are now ignored
• Core: Database connection failure no longer kills the plugin with SetFailState — MySQL failures gracefully fall back to SQLite with automatic player data reload
• Cosmetics: Fixed Spy Dead Ringer feign deaths triggering death effects (gold statue on a still-alive Spy revealing the feign to enemies)
• Cosmetics: Fixed eye effect and pet entities lingering as invisible entities between death and respawn — now properly removed on real death and re-created on spawn
• Cosmetics: Fixed EntIndexToEntRef called on failed entity creation return value — now checks before converting
• Cosmetics: Fixed pet DefaultAnim keyvalue failing on models without an "idle" animation — now uses SetAnimation input which gracefully fails
• Cosmetics: Ragdoll flags applied via RequestFrame to ensure TF2 has created the ragdoll entity first
• Cosmetics: Added shared KillEntRef() helper for safe entity cleanup across all cosmetic types
• Chat: Fixed tags not appearing at all before database loads — removed overly cautious IsDataLoaded gate from CP_OnChatMessage. Players now get fallback [Lvl 1] tag immediately on join
• Chat: Fixed StripColorTags only handling {#RRGGBB} hex format — now strips all {...} color tags including {default}, {red}, {green}, {teamcolor} for clean menu display
• Core: Fixed misleading schema migration comment about ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS
