Kothar

New Features

• Economies loaded from /economies/*.yml (includes default coins and xp)
• Persistent balances stored in the database via economy_balances (uuid, economy, balance)
• Admin economy management: /kothar eco <give|take|set|balance> <player><economy>
• Cancellable economy balance change event (for plugins/hooks to react to or block changes)
• Kill/death/win/capture-tick rewards can target any configurable economyId
• Configurable Top GUI for wins, captures, coins, and XP
• Reward commands now accept both %player% and {player} placeholders
• Configurable per-KOTH setting capture.disable-player-glow-in-zone to force remove glow from players while inside the KOTH zone during active games
• Auto-refreshing countdown hologram that updates every second without requiring /kothar reload
• Visual countdown display for manual starts: shows 60 second timer on Next KOTH hologram even while a KOTH is active after using /kothar start <koth>

Improvements

• Chat messages auto-apply the Kothar prefix while GUI messages remain unprefixed
• Paper 1.21+ compatibility updates for chat events, displays, and scoreboard objectives
• Safer offline player resolution in admin commands
• KOTH cleanup no longer globally disables glow for all online players, preventing interference with other plugins that use glow effects
• "You gained/lost" messages are now dynamic based on the configured economy (name/symbol)
• Clarified help text across all languages (EN/ES/FR/PT/RU): /kothar balance now described as player economy view, /kothar coins as admin coin management, /kothar eco as admin management for any economy
• Corrected wand hint message in all languages: changed incorrect /koth claim {koth} reference to proper /kothar select {koth} command
• Streamlined Next KOTH hologram display: removed redundant label line to show only countdown, adjusted vertical positioning (+0.8 offset) to reduce visual overlap
• Improved hologram task lifecycle: Next KOTH countdown tasks now properly start and stop on plugin enable, disable, and reload events
• Fixed scoreboard title color processing: color codes like &c&lKothar now render correctly instead of displaying raw codes
• Enhanced scoreboard number hiding with dual fallback strategy: primary method uses NumberFormat.blank() with RenderType.HEARTS as fallback when unavailable

Bug Fixes

• Null-safe inventory click handling across menus
• Give command no longer fails due to unreplaced placeholders
• Fixed collateral effects where ending a KOTH would remove glow from players who had it from other mechanics/plugins
• Eliminated runtime "Missing key" errors for next-koth hologram by correcting message path references to gui.hologram.next-koth.* format
• Resolved scoreboard persistence issue: ensures complete removal and restoration for all players when a KOTH ends instead of sticking indefinitely
• Strengthened inventory protection across all GUI menus: prevents item manipulation via shift-clicks, number keys, double-clicks, hotbar swaps, and drop actions for OP and regular players alike
• Fixed duplicate hologram spawning: zone configuration now defers main hologram creation and maintains Next KOTH as the active display to prevent immediate double hologram appearance
