Trending

The Trending tab surfaces warps that are popular right now, based on recent teleport traffic with a time decay so old spikes fade away. Enable it with Settings.Trending.Enabled.

Settings:
  Trending:
    Enabled: true
    DecayFactor: 0.9
    DecayMinutes: 1440

Key	Default	Description
Enabled	true	Toggle the Trending tab.
DecayFactor	0.9	Fraction of the trending score kept after each decay interval. 0.9 = lose 10% per period.
DecayMinutes	1440	Length of one decay interval, in minutes. 1440 = one day.

How it works

• Each teleport to a warp bumps its trending score.
• Every DecayMinutes, every warp’s score is multiplied by DecayFactor.

So a warp that was hammered last week but is quiet now slowly slides down, while a warp getting visits today climbs. Tuning:

• Lower DecayFactor (e.g. 0.7) → trending reacts faster, favours very recent activity.
• Higher DecayFactor (e.g. 0.97) → smoother, rewards sustained popularity.
• Shorter DecayMinutes → decay applies more often.

Trending is distinct from Recommended: Recommended is a paid, fixed-duration promotion the owner buys, while Trending is automatic and earned through real visits.
