NeoChat 1.0.3

This update introduces the new Announcer system and several stability improvements for modern Paper/Folia servers.

New

• Added a brand-new Announcer module with support for:
  • chat announcements
  • titles
  • action bars
  • boss bars
  • sounds
  • optional vanilla toast notifications
• Added per-player announcer toggle support.
• Added /announcer command with:
  • toggle
  • status
  • list
  • preview
  • send
• Added announcements.yml for dedicated announcer configuration.
• Added announcer permissions for receiving, toggling, previewing, and sending announcements.
• Added support 26.X

Improved

• Improved Folia compatibility for scheduled announcer tasks.
• Improved console startup output by removing unnecessary bStats and PlaceholderAPI activation messages.
• Improved announcer command feedback and status messages to look cleaner in chat.

Fixed

• Fixed nested PlaceholderAPI resolution for cases such as %luckperms_suffix% containing other placeholders like Nexo glyph placeholders.
• Fixed format selection so chat formats now prioritize actual group matches before permission-only matches, avoiding OP players receiving the wrong format.
• Fixed task cancellation issues on newer Folia/Paper builds during announcer reloads and repeated action bar tasks.
• Fixed announcer toast registration compatibility for newer Paper builds.

Notes

• Servers updating from older versions may need to review messages.yml for new message keys.
• announcements.yml will be generated automatically on first startup.
• Vanilla toast notifications are supported, but toast text should be treated as static rather than per-player dynamic content.
