🌟 FriendParty: Friends System with Mutual Glow & Parties

FriendParty is a modern plugin for Paper/Purpur servers (1.20.4+) that combines a convenient friends system with guaranteed two-way outline glow and a tactical party system with friendly fire protection.

🔥 Key Features:

• 🟢 Guaranteed mutual friend glow: when two players add each other as friends, the Glow outline shows through walls for both of them at the same time, in real time.
• 🎨 Change colors right in the GUI: a beautiful 14-color palette is available for both friends and parties. Switch colors in one click and see them update instantly, with no relog required!
• ⚔️ Friendly Fire protection: the party leader can disable damage between party members (sword hits, arrows, tridents, and harmful splash potions are blocked).
• 🕶️ Stealth Mode: lets a player temporarily hide their online status and turn off their glow when they want to play solo.
• 🚫 Ignore list: protects you from friend request spam.
• 🛡️ 100% compatible with TAB and Scoreboard: the plugin sends virtual packets via ProtocolLib and never creates global server teams, so prefixes, suffixes, and sorting in TAB / CMI / Essentials stay intact!
• 💾 SQLite database: all friends, requests, and settings are saved in a local friends.db database.

📋 Requirements:

• Server software: Paper / Purpur / Spigot 1.20.4+
• Java: 17 or newer
• ProtocolLib: version 5.3.0+ (required for glow through walls)
• LuckPerms / Vault: (optional) to display ranks in menus and to grant friend limits by donor rank.

💡 Glow range tip: To make the outline visible through walls at long distances (128–256 blocks), set players: 128 (or 256) under world-settings.default.entity-tracking-range in spigot.yml.
