How to reproduce the bug:
The Problem is 1.11 related. Testsystem: Essentials 2.0.1-b460, PaperSpigiot build 1008; no erros in the log.
I'm using normal Spigot with the same issue. @SupaHam
Confirming this, on 1.10颅.2. Quite "critical". A player has found this usebug without staff consent and I've warned him. (and he ragequitted lol)
This is an bump. The Issue is still exist in 1.12.2 and is still urgent. I would be gratefull for any help or progress.
Another bump i think, i haven't found a way to solve this at the moment :/
I have created the pull request #1804 that will offer the ability to avoid fishing being detected as an activity by disabling the setting cancel-afk-on-interact.
It is still broken, I just checked it with build # 612
I checked it in 2 ways:
First: I did not use the fishing rod. I was put in afk in 10 minutes.
Second: I used the fishing rod. I was not put into afk. Even not after 15 minuts.
Config: (afk section) https://pastebin.com/XdyfsbsE
Should be fixed by the PR mentioned above. The settings Remski linked to appear to not disable the setting cancel-afk-on-interact.
