gChat-Towny

gChat-Towny is an addon for the gChat plugin that integrates support for Towny and displays player town and nation tags directly in chat. The plugin is also compatible with PlaceholderAPI for flexible placeholder usage.

Features

• Displays town and nation tags in chat.

• Supports HEX colors for tags (e.g., &#FF0000 → red).

• Integration with PlaceholderAPI:

  • %gchat_towny% — full tag: [Nation | Town]
  • %gchat_townytown% — town tag: [Town]
  • %gchat_townynation% — nation tag: [Nation]

• Fully compatible with gChat: tags are automatically applied in chat format.

• Checks for Towny and gChat — disables itself safely if dependencies are missing.

• Debug mode for checking tags and configuration.

• Configurable via towny-gChat.yml.
