  • Rainbow Wave Effect — Apply an animated rainbow wave to any nickname with adjustable speed
  • Team Prefix/Suffix Toggle — Choose whether to show or hide scoreboard team prefixes and suffixes per player
  • Nickname Indicator — Optional ✎ indicator appended to nicknames so you can tell them apart from real names
