Improved AutoLog - Fixing the Crystal Feature
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The AutoLog module has a Crystal feature, where, when a crystal is detected in the vicinity of the player, the account will AutoLog. The problem is, one cannot leave this feature turned on when for instance travelling afk on the highways in 2b2t because it will trigger on the mere existence of a historical crystal left on the highway perhaps months ago.
Describe the solution you'd like Solution 1) Check to see if there is another player, or not-on-the-friends list player within like 15-30 blocks -- If there is another player, then assume that they might detonate the crystal, even if it is historic (they may have laid it on the highway ahead of you as a trap to catch afk players) and proceed to AutoLog. If there is no player around, this is a historic crystal, do not AutoLog, ignore the crystal... this leaves the player vulnerable to redstone detonation of the crystal -- by an arrow dispenser or by TNT. This also removes the current functionality of the current AutoLog-Crystal option that makes possible the Crystal Pearl and other ways to cause the player to autolog. But at least the option would be fit for purpose.
Solution 2) Have 2 or 3 options: New Crystals Only, Crystal&Non-Friend, All Crystals (including Historic Crystals), OFF. Clicking on the Crystal option cycles through the menu of behaviours.
Solution 3) In the case that there is a solution that eliminates the AutoLog on the existence of a historic crystal, have a separate option: AutoLog on Block -- and select the block. This allows players to set an AutoLog on say RedWool, when passing close to red wool, the account will autolog. It makes it possible to implement the Crystal Pearl as the RedWool Pearl, or the Crystal Guarded Anti-AFK Ring as the RedWool Guarded Anti-AFK ring. It also makes it possible to use a pre-arranged block under the highway to cause friends to AutoLog when they reach designated coordinates, they just set AutoLog-RedWool, or the agreed-upon block and start AFK travelling toward the destination. The next time they log in, they are at the destination.

Exploiting the current behaviour to make a Crystal Pearl -- done that, really useful. Exploiting the behaviour to make a Crystal-Guarded Anti-AFK ring to overcome the shortcomings in Anti-AFK at restarts -- hypothesized, not attempted yet.

Never using the AutoLog-Crystal option: basically what I have done for nearly a year after it autologged me for the mere existence of a crystal on the highway, that is, until I invented the idea of a Crystal Pearl.
