GracePeriod

🛡️ Grace Period Give your players a fighting chance.

📝 Overview Grace Period is a lightweight, essential utility designed for Survival, UHC, and Factions servers. It automatically disables PvP and other dangerous damage sources for a configurable amount of time at the start of a world or map wipe.

Whether you are hosting a competitive UHC match or a friendly SMP, this plugin ensures players have time to gather resources, build a base, and prepare before the chaos begins.

✨ Key Features ⏱️ Automatic Timer: Set a global timer that starts when the server opens.

⚔️ PvP Protection: completely blocks player-vs-player damage while the grace period is active.

🛡️ Damage Control: Option to disable environmental damage (lava, drowning, fall damage) during the grace period.

📊 Boss Bar Countdown: Displays a live, customizable boss bar at the top of the screen showing remaining time.

📢 Sound & Chat Alerts: customizable broadcast messages and sound effects when the period begins, hits milestones (e.g., "1 minute remaining"), and ends.

⚡ Smart Resume: If the server crashes or restarts, the timer remembers exactly where it left off.

🌍 Per-World Support: Enable the grace period only in specific worlds (e.g., enable in world_uhc, disable in lobby).
