Fortnite Stats v2.0.2 - Rate Limiting & API Reliability
π Fortnite Stats v2.0.2 - Rate Limiting & API Reliability
This release introduces significant reliability improvements and API compliance enhancements to the Fortnite integration.
β¨ Major New Features
Rate Limiting Implementation
- API Compliance: Implements 2 requests/second (under 3 req/s Fortnite API limit)
- 429 Error Handling: Automatic retry with
Retry-Afterheader support - Request Delays: 0.5 second delays between API requests
- Connection Pooling: Efficient HTTP connection reuse for better performance
Enhanced API Reliability
- Real Data Only: Removed mock data fallback for authentic Fortnite stats
- Error Recovery: Graceful handling of API failures and network issues
- Data Validation: Input/output validation and sanitization
- Clear Error Messages: User-friendly error reporting
π§ Technical Improvements
Sensor System Enhancements
- Fixed 'Unknown' Status: Sensors now properly display real data
- Proper Data Mapping: Correct mapping between API fields and sensor values
- Win Rate Conversion: Automatic conversion from decimal to percentage
- K/D Ratio Rounding: Proper rounding to 3 decimal places
- Enhanced Attributes: Additional sensor attributes for better context
Aggregated Sensors
- All Platforms All Modes: Combines data across all platforms and game modes
- Console All Modes: Aggregates data from console platforms (Xbox, PlayStation, Switch)
- PC All Modes: Aggregates data from PC/keyboard+mouse platforms
- Cross-Platform Aggregation: Solo, Duo, and Squad modes across platforms
- Smart Calculations: Proper win rate and K/D ratio calculations across aggregated data
