Recon v0.4.2

Data reliability + AMD/NVIDIA scaling fixes.

Stats now come from the real browser engine

Tracker data is fetched through Recon's own embedded browser context instead of a
raw script — the same fingerprints, cookies and navigation chain a normal
browser sends. The script path that Cloudflare kept blocking is gone.

Rate-limit hardening (no more walls)

  • Requests are paced 6–8s apart, one at a time.
  • A failed URL cools down 30s for every screen, so five views can't hammer
    one player.
  • Per-lobby budget: 10 players (12 in Deathmatch), own team first.
  • Private profiles (451) back off 7 days; missing pages (404) back off 24h —
    they were being re-requested every lobby.
  • Dead-network breaker: 5 failed requests in a row → quiet for 5 minutes.
  • Your own games are never re-downloaded: Act history is cached, previous acts
    are pinned permanently.

Private profiles are labelled, not broken

Rows for private tracker profiles show a lock in TS / ACS / K/D / WIN% / HS%
instead of empty dashes — in the tracker table, the in-game overlay, the lobby
and the player card.

Player list is stable

  • Rows no longer reshuffle as data arrives.
  • Ranks no longer flicker between "Unrated" and the real rank.
  • Party outlines no longer blink when one poll misses.

GPU scaling fixed (AMD + NVIDIA)

  • Scaling is applied through Windows' own display API and the documented WDDM
    scaling value — the toggle now actually stretches (verified: old builds
    wrote "maintain aspect ratio", i.e. the opposite of what it claimed    ).
  • Recon no longer writes vendor driver keys. Those keys did nothing on
    current drivers and left some AMD systems with broken scaling and a
    disappearing HDMI audio device / driver.
  • Recon now cleans up those keys automatically on launch, so machines that
    were affected heal themselves (then reinstall/repair the GPU driver once to
    bring HDMI audio back).

Borderless no longer grabs focus

Applying borderless used to raise and activate Valorant, burying Recon and
forcing an alt-tab. It now changes size/style only, and never steals focus.

Smaller fixes

  • Riot Chat: the friend-note input actually appears (it was being clipped away).
  • Store: player titles show their real name instead of "Unknown".
  • Pre-Pick map list includes Summit.
  • Dev Dashboard: RAM/CPU timeline with spike markers and a full footprint
    breakdown (backend + Recon's own webviews).
