🪶 ShibaGrace

ShibaGrace is an elegant, 100% server-side Fabric mod (Version 1.21.11) that ensures a fair starting experience for new players on your server. It protects new players from PvP and marks them visually with beautiful, floating feathers – all without requiring players to install the mod themselves!

✨ Features

• 100% Server-Side: The mod only needs to be installed on the server. Vanilla clients can join without any issues.
• Automatic PvP Protection: New players receive a default 45-minute PvP protection when joining for the first time (time is configurable). They cannot be attacked, nor can they attack other players.
• Visual Indicators (No Client Mod Required!):
  • Players under grace protection receive a 🪶 symbol in front of their name in the tablist and chat.
  • A magical floating feather acts as a "drone," gliding smoothly above the player's head, instantly signaling to everyone: This player is protected!
  • Smart Timer System: Players are notified in the chat when their protection is about to expire (warnings at 10 mins, every minute from 5 mins, 30 secs, and a 10-second countdown).

💾 Technical Details

• No Database Setup Required: All data is saved efficiently in a simple .dat file within your world storage. Even if the server crashes, not a single second of protection time is lost.
• Performance: The floating feathers are updated using intelligent interpolation logic. Orphaned entities (leftover feathers) are automatically and invisibly cleaned up by the server to 100% prevent memory leaks.
