Release Notes

One of the most requested features just landed on our panel: the NPC Quests system! Now you can create custom missions where your players must hunt down specific animals or eliminate specific zombies to earn rewards. It's a brand new way to engage PvE-focused players on your server. ✨ What you can do: 🐺 Create quests to kill specific animals (bear, wolf, boar, horse and 7 more species) or any animal 🧟 Create quests to kill specific zombie types (military, police, hospital, nuclear, suicide vest and 20+ subtypes) or any zombie 💰 Reward with coins and/or packages from your panel (automatic delivery via claim code) ⏱️ Set a time limit (from 1 minute up to 7 days) 🔁 Set cooldowns (same quest or other quests) 💸 Charge an optional cost to start 🏆 Public Discord ranking (Top 15): - Top zombie slayers of the server - Top animal hunters of the server Updated every 15 minutes 🎮 How a player joins: 1. Sees the START QUEST button in the Discord channel 2. Clicks it and receives a DM confirming the mission 3. Plays normally — the bot detects kills automatically 4. On completion, gets coins + package (if any) via DM 5. Automatic notification in the admin channel ⚠️ IMPORTANT: for this feature to work, you must update your server's RCON files to version 6.8.0. Without this update, the system can't detect kills and quests stay paused. 🔧 How to set up: Open the panel → Quests → NPC Quests → Create Quest. The menu only appears when RCON is enabled in your server settings. Full manual on the tutorials channel. Enjoy! 🎉

We fixed the issue that was preventing messages from being sent to the SCUM in-game chat, which had stopped working after the game's latest update. Message colors are also working again. Thank you for your patience!

Update summary This version fixes an important issue that was affecting the delivery of bot orders and the execution of administrator commands. Identified issue When the RCON bot was connected to the server, some purchase orders were not reaching the players. It was also common for items spawned by admins to not appear in server chat, and for administrative commands to fail unpredictably. Applied fix The issue has been identified and fully resolved.

We've made important updates to ensure full RCON compatibility across the entire Prisoner Bot system! 🔄 Full RCON Support for All Features Several features that previously only worked with the dedicated bot application now fully support RCON communication: • Mine Detection — When a player places a mine in a prohibited area, the system now correctly responds via RCON (teleport + zombie spawn as punishment) • Anti-Cheat Auto-Ban — Infinite ammo detection now automatically bans the player via RCON • Lucky Spin — Winner announcement now appears in the game chat for RCON users • VPN/IP Blocking — Players connecting with VPN or blocked IPs are now automatically kicked or banned via RCON • New Player Spawn — New players are now teleported to the configured spawn point and receive the welcome announcement via RCON • Warzone Vote — Warzone voting announcements now work correctly via RCON • Rent-a-Car — Scheduled vehicle destruction for rented vehicles now works via RCON 🆕 New Spawn Commands The following spawn commands are now available via RCON: • Spawn Animal — Spawn animals at any location • Spawn Zombie — Spawn zombies at any location • Spawn Armed NPC — Spawn armed NPCs at any location 🐛 Bug Fixes • Fixed an issue where the server environment data (temperature, weather) was not loading on servers with non-standard sunrise/sunset configurations • Fixed a bug in the anti-cheat system where the ban logic was inverted ⚠️ Important: To use these improvements, you must update your RCON files to the latest version.

We're excited to announce the new RCON Dashboard — a real-time server management panel available for all users using RCON communication! 🗺️ Interactive Server Map • Live map showing all online players with names and positions • Temperature heatmap overlay showing estimated temperatures across the map • Click on the map to drop cargo at any location • Player trail tracking (last 20 positions) 📊 Real-Time Server Info • RCON connection status • Players online count • Current game time • Weather data: temperature (min/max), water temperature, rain, snow chance ⚡ Quick Actions • Announce — Send a global message to all players • Set Time — Change the server time (0-23h) • Set Weather — Adjust weather with a slider (sunny to heavy storm) • Cargo Drop — Click on the map to drop cargo at any location • Start/Stop Warzone — Manage your warzones directly from the dashboard 👤 Player Management (from the players table) • Send private message • Give money • Spawn items (search from your registered items) • Kick player • Ban player ⚠️ Important: To use the RCON Dashboard at 100%, you must update your RCON files to the latest version. Without the update, some features will not work properly. The RCON Dashboard is visible only for users with RCON communication type configured.

We have a small RCON update for everyone. Fixes and improvements: Fixed the blank messages related to item spawns that were randomly appearing for some players. Fixed a small issue where item spawning and message sending were not working properly. Added a small performance improvement. Hosting companies where RCON is already available: * GG Host is already available * XLGames is already available * PingPerfect is already available * xREALM is currently in the approval/testing phase I would love to have the Prisoner Bot plugin working with every hosting company, but that does not depend on me — it depends on the hosting providers. So my suggestion is that you contact your hosting company and ask them to add integration with Prisoner Bot. This worked with some companies yesterday. How to update your RCON: * If you use one of the hosting providers that already has Prisoner Bot integrated, there is probably an update/install plugin button in the Mods manager. You need to do this while your server is stopped. * If you are self-hosted, you need to stop the server, download the RCON files from the link in the configuration manual, and copy the files into the WIN64 folder.

We are pleased to announce the launch of our new RCON plugin, a major evolution in how Prisoner Bot communicates with your SCUM server. 🖥️ No more dedicated computer needed! With the RCON plugin, you no longer need a separate machine running 24/7 to manage your server. The plugin runs directly on your game server — lightweight, fast, and always available. ⚡ What has improved: ✅ Item delivery is significantly faster ✅ Uber (player teleport service) is much faster ✅ The bot delivers items until the very last minute before a server restart ✅ As soon as a player connects, they can buy any package or request an Uber — no more waiting for the bot to connect to the server 🌍 Availability: 🟢 Available now for dedicated servers (installation and configuration guide available) 🟡 Coming soon for GGhost customers 🟡 Coming soon for XLGames customers 📢 As new hosting providers become available, it will be announced here 📊 Compatibility: 95% of the bot's features are already compatible with RCON. The remaining features are being finalized. ⚠️ Important notes: 🔹 The RCON plugin is developed by the Prisoner Bot team 🔹 No SCUM files are modified — the plugin works transparently alongside the game 🔹 As this is a new system, some bugs may be found. We appreciate your patience and feedback 🔹 We strongly recommend keeping regular backups of your server (ideally have a backup during each restart)

FIXES: Fixed Channel field in VIP Plans edit showing the ID instead of the channel name Fixed error when creating a Cron with "Restock Package" command that sent data in incorrect format Fixed packages field in Cron edit displaying IDs instead of names Fixed validation error on Lucky Spin screen that sent decimal values instead of integers Fixed Weapon field in Player Quests creation not loading the weapons list Fixed Quest Vehicles listing showing translation codes instead of vehicle names Fixed bug where the Discord embed was not removed upon Vehicle Quest completion Fixed item field loading in package editing that froze the browser by loading all items at once IMPROVEMENTS: Added required image validation when creating packages and VIP plans Added help texts to all fields in the package edit screen Vehicle field in Quest Vehicles now uses the list registered in Vehicle Types Added duplicate Vehicle Quest feature The "Ammo Count" field now only appears when "Magazine" is selected Item field now loads on demand as you type, improving performance

We're excited to announce the release of the completely redesigned Prisoner Bot Admin Panel! Built from the ground up with a modern tech stack, this update brings a cleaner, faster, and more powerful experience for server administrators. ✦ Modern Design • Brand new interface with dark and light theme support • Clean, professional, and fully responsive layout — works great on desktop and mobile ✦ Enhanced Dashboard • Real-time statistics: total players, new players, active packages, today's kills, active VIPs • Sales and new players charts for the last 30 days • Top selling packages overview • Live feed of recent players and kills ✦ 12 Languages Available • English, Portuguese (BR), Spanish, French, German, Italian, Russian, Ukrainian, Greek, Thai, Korean, Traditional Chinese ✦ Favorites Menu (Pin) • Pin your most-used menus to the top of the sidebar for quick access • Recent pages section with timestamps ✦ More Intuitive Panel • Sidebar organized into clear sections: Administration, Discord, Economy, Events, Monitoring, Server, VIP, Quests, Vehicles • Collapsible sidebar for more workspace • Search and filters on all tables • Modals for creating/editing without leaving the page ✦ Improved Interactive Map • Real-time visualization of players, vehicles, and NPCs • Filter by marker type • Vehicle and online player statistics • Auto-refresh every 60 seconds ✦ Other Improvements • Per-feature permission system

Now you can link a package to any Uber destination! When a player uses the Uber and gets teleported, a package will be automatically dropped at the destination. This means you can create amazing experiences like: * Teleport players to a location and reward them with gear, weapons, or supplies on arrival * Set up PVP arenas where players arrive already equipped for battle * Create special event destinations with exclusive loot waiting for them The package is optional — your existing Ubers will continue working exactly as before. Simply edit an Uber in the admin panel and select a package to enable this feature.

A fix has been applied to the Quest Vehicle system. In some cases, the Discord embed remained in the channel even after the quest time expired. This issue has been fixed. Important: If you had an active quest before this update, the old embed will not be removed automatically. You will need to manually delete the message in Discord after the quest ends.

The Interactive Map now includes a Statistics Panel on the right side of the map, giving you a clear overview of your server at a glance. What you'll see: Vehicles — A breakdown of all vehicles by type, how many have an owner, and how many are unclaimed. Players — The number of online players, how many of them are registered in the bot, and how many are not yet registered. The statistics update automatically alongside the map markers. Important: This feature requires a dedicated computer running the bot. The information displayed is not necessarily real-time. Data is updated as the bot receives information from the game server, so there may be a slight delay.

A new feature has been added! You can now set a custom spawn location for players joining your server for the first time. When a brand new player connects, the bot will automatically teleport them to the coordinates you choose. You can also configure an in-game announce message to welcome them. This is perfect for servers that have a lobby, tutorial area, or a specific starting zone for newcomers. Available now in **Scum Configuration** settings.

A highly requested feature has arrived! You can now set specific days of the week and time windows for selling each package. With this, you can: * Choose which days of the week a package will be available for purchase * Set start and end times for sales on each day * Create different sale windows throughout the week * Players will automatically be informed about available times if they try to buy outside the configured schedule * The Discord store will automatically display the sale hours for each package Packages without configured schedules continue to work normally, with no restrictions.
