Features

• Completely Asynchronous - The plugin is designed to be as lightweight as possible. All packet modifications are done asynchronously, so the main thread is never blocked.
• Folia Support - The plugin integrates with Folia, which is a Paper fork that adds regionised multithreading to the server.
• Crash Detector - By sending both a keep alive and transaction packet, the plugin can detect if a player has crashed, even if the player is still connected.
• Configurable - The plugin is highly configurable, allowing you to adjust the settings to your liking.
• Update Checker - The plugin automatically checks for updates on startup. If a new version is available, a message will be sent to the console.

Note: The method parameter is optional. If no method is provided, the plugin will use the most appropriate method based on the player's version.
