Echo Footprint Tracking System

Footprint Duration: By default, footprints remain visible for 4 minutes before disappearing. Server administrators can increase or customize this duration in the config to any desired time, allowing footprints to last as long as they want.

This plugin adds a footprint tracking mechanic to Minecraft SMPs, allowing players to track other players' movements and find their hidden bases by following the footprints they leave behind.

How It Works:

• Footprint Generation: Players leave visible footprints when walking or running on suitable terrain, such as dirt, coarse dirt, grass, sand, mud, and other configurable blocks.
• Base Finding: Players can follow footprints to find hidden bases, identify player activity, and trace paths leading to base entrances.
• Movement Tracking: Footprints are generated according to player movement, with configurable behavior for walking, sprinting, and sneaking.
• Configurable Blocks: Server administrators can choose which blocks generate footprints and which blocks do not.
• Customizable Appearance: Configure footprint visibility, particle effects, spacing, and other footprint settings.
• Performance Optimization: Footprints should be generated efficiently to minimize server lag, even when multiple players are online.

Main Purpose:

The primary purpose of this plugin is to make base finding and hunting more engaging on SMP servers. Players can examine footprints left on natural terrain and follow the trails to locate other players' hidden bases.

All major features should be configurable, allowing server owners to adjust tracking difficulty and balance the mechanic according to their SMP's gameplay style.
