Version 1.1.0

✨ New Features

🎨 Full MiniMessage Support

Lang files now support all MiniMessage tags:

🔄 Backward Compatibility with Legacy Formatting

All legacy formats still work simultaneously:

• §x§F§F§9§1§0§0 - § hex format

📋 PlaceholderAPI Integration

Placeholders are now automatically expanded when a player is provided:

• %player_name%, %player_health% - standard PAPI placeholders
• %nexo_shift_-48%, %nexo_size_36% - Nexo placeholders
• {from}, {for} - custom plugin placeholders
