Telemetry (anonymous crash reporting)

NeroQuests sends anonymous crash reports so bugs get fixed without anyone having to file a report by hand. It is on by default and opt-out: it is disclosed here and in PRIVACY.md, and you can turn it off with telemetryEnabled=false.

Reports go to Sentry, on EU ingest servers.

How to opt out#

Set this in config/neroquests.properties (created on first launch):

telemetryEnabled=false

Restart the game. That silences everything — including the developer's own dev runs.

The setting is client-local: it is not server-authoritative, so a server you join can never switch your crash reporting on or off. Every other NeroQuests config value the server does dictate; this one is yours.

What is sent#

Only when NeroQuests itself is involved in the failure — a report is dropped unless its stack trace touches za.co.neroland.neroquests. Crashes from other mods are never sent.

• the error's type and stack frames (class, method, file name, line) — never the error message, and no file paths
• version strings: NeroQuests, Minecraft, your loader (Fabric / Forge / NeoForge), OS, Java
• the ids and versions of your other installed mods (public manifest values), to spot mod conflicts
• NeroQuests' own config values (e.g. gateWritesEnabled)
• for a failed /neroquests command, the subcommand name (never its arguments)
• one anonymous session record per launch (start, end, whether it ended in an error)

If a fatal log line mentions NeroQuests without an error attached, only the fact that it happened is sent; its text is replaced by a fixed placeholder. No breadcrumbs and no performance/timing traces are collected.

What is never sent#

• your IP address
• your username, player UUID, or any player identity
• your machine's hostname or OS account name (file paths are removed; error and log messages are never sent)
• world name, seed, coordinates, or chat
• your quest progress — none of the data described in PRIVACY.md "What is stored" ever leaves your machine

Volume#

Identical errors are reported once per game session, and no more than 10 reports are sent in a session at all.
