🗺️ WGPlayerCount
Exposes PlaceholderAPI placeholders to count players inside WorldGuard regions in real time.
📦 Requirements
🏷️ Placeholders
👤 Single region
Returns the number of players inside the specified region.
%wgplayercount_<region>%
%wgplayercount_spawn%
👥 Multiple combined regions
Returns the total number of unique players across all regions. If a player is in two regions at once, they are only counted once.
%wgplayercount_<region1>+<region2>+...%
%wgplayercount_spawn+arena+lobby%
💡 Region IDs are case-insensitive.
⚡ How it works
The plugin scans the position of all online players every second and stores the result in a cache. Placeholder calls simply read from that cache, without any extra computation.
