AuthBB v1.4 - The Refactor & Stability Update

This is an update that completely overhauls the plugin's internal architecture to be more robust, stable, and user-friendly. Almost every part of the plugin has been rewritten to ensure maximum compatibility and performance.

Major Features & Changes

• New Command System: All commands are now consolidated under /authbb (with alias /abb) to prevent conflicts with BungeeCord/Velocity's default commands.
  • /authbb server <server>
  • /authbb send <player> <server>
• Reload Command: You can now reload the entire plugin configuration on the fly using /authbb reload.
• Intelligent Proxy Detection:
  • The plugin now automatically detects both BungeeCord and Velocity environments.
  • It will warn you about critical misconfigurations (e.g., enabling both at once).
  • A new force-proxy: true option has been added to the config.yml to bypass checks for unsupported proxy setups.
• Automatic Update Checker: Admins will be notified in-game and in the console when a new version of AuthBB is available.
• Automatic Config Updater: When you update the plugin, it will now automatically add new settings to your existing config.yml without overwriting your changes.

Architectural Improvements (Under the Hood)

• Full Refactor to Dependency Injection: The plugin's core has been rewritten to eliminate static abuse, making the code more modular, maintainable, and testable.
• Broad Version Compatibility: The plugin is now compiled to support all server versions from 1.16.5 to 1.21+.
• Message Caching: All messages from the config.yml are now cached on startup to improve performance.
• Improved Permission Hierarchy: A new parent permission AuthBB.admin has been added to grant access to all administrative commands at once.

Bug Fixes & Stability

• Title System Fixed: Reverted the title system back to the universally compatible legacy Bukkit API, fixing the issue where titles would not appear on some server versions.
• Persistent Invisibility Fixed: Corrected a logic error that caused the makeInvisible effect to sometimes persist on players after they logged out or after the config was changed.
• Reload Functionality Fixed: The disableChat and teleport-on-join settings now correctly update after using the reload command.
• AuthMe Dependency Check: The check for AuthMe is now performed correctly at startup, preventing NoClassDefFoundError crashes if AuthMe is not installed.
• Cleaned Config: Removed several unused messages from config.yml and reorganized it for better clarity.
