🛡️ v1.5.0 - The Moderation & Performance Update

ChatNext reaches a new level of professionalism with this massive update, introducing a fully-fledged Moderation Engine and a built-in Performance Profiler. Say goodbye to chat lag!

🚀 New Features

• Advanced Moderation System: A complete suite to keep your server's chat clean and safe.
  • Anti-Spam & Delay: Prevent players from typing too fast.
  • Duplicate Blocker: Automatically block repeated messages.
  • Caps-Lock Filter: Block messages with an excessive percentage of uppercase letters.
• Smart Regex & Profanity Filter:
  • Block or censor (****) bad words using smart pattern matching.
  • Anti-IP/Ads: Built-in Regex rules to detect and instantly block server IP advertising.
• Built-in Profiler (/cn debug): Admins can now toggle a debug mode to see exactly how fast ChatNext processes messages in real-time (in milliseconds). Prove to yourself that the plugin is completely lag-free!
• Modular Configuration: Added a new moderation/ folder with dedicated files (settings.yml, anti-spam.yml, rules.yml) to keep your setup clean, organized, and easy to configure.

⚡ Performance & Optimizations (Zero-Lag Core)

• 100% Asynchronous Processing: We have completely removed all main-thread tasks for message broadcasting. ChatNext now handles chat formatting, PlaceholderAPI parsing, mentions, and regex filtering entirely in the background. 0 impact on your TPS.
• Pre-compiled Regex Engine: Profanity and IP patterns are now pre-compiled and cached on server startup or reload. This prevents CPU spikes and eliminates lag drops during heavy chat activity.
• Grouped Sound Execution: Mention sounds are now grouped into a single optimized task, drastically reducing server load when multiple players are tagged at once.

🛠️ Commands & Fixes

• Added /cn debug command to toggle the performance profiler (Requires chatnext.admin permission).
• Updated /cn reload to seamlessly reload all the new moderation configs and re-compile Regex rules without needing to restart the server.
