ArrowHitMSG - Instant Arrow Hit Feedback

This archery feedback tool fills an important gap in Minecraft's combat system. In vanilla gameplay, you often can't tell if your arrow hit or how effective it was, especially at longer ranges or in chaotic combat situations.
With this plugin, you'll gain valuable tactical information that can help you improve your archery skills and make better decisions in PvP combat. The customizable notification system lets server owners decide exactly how this information is presented to players.
Server Benefits
For server administrators, this plugin enhances PvP gameplay without altering the core mechanics. It's perfect for:
Combat-focused servers where archery skill matters
Survival servers with PvP elements
Minigame servers featuring bow combat
Any server looking to enhance player feedback during combat
The plugin is designed to be lightweight and efficient, using modern Bukkit/Spigot APIs for optimal performance. It works well alongside other combat enhancement plugins and won't conflict with most server setups.
Getting Started
Simply place the plugin JAR in your plugins folder and restart your server. Default settings will work immediately, but you can customize the experience through the config.yml file to suit your server's unique style.
The plugin integrates seamlessly with permission systems, allowing server owners to control who can reload the configuration.
