WorldEditSelectionVisualizer (WESV) is essentially the famous [WorldEditCUI](http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/2171206-172-worldeditcui/) mod in the form of a Bukkit plugin, meaning players **do not need to install anything on their client**.
## Features

- Use `/wesv toggle` to toggle the visualizer
- Option to show the selection only when holding the selection item
- Configurable particle effect and view distance
- Prevents players from spawning too many particles when selecting huge regions
- Highly customizable for your server's performance
- Supports both [WorldEdit](https://enginehub.org/worldedit) and [FastAsyncWorldEdit](https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/fastasyncworldedit.13932/)
- Compatible with all Minecraft versions starting from 1.7.10
- Supports RGB color codes in messages on Minecraft 1.16 and higher, using the `&#rrggbb` format
- [PlaceholderAPI](https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI) support, with the placeholders `%wesv_toggled_selection%`, `%wesv_toggled_clipboard%`, `%wesv_volume_selection%`, and `%wesv_volume_clipboard%`
- [Folia](https://github.com/PaperMC/Folia) support for better performance

# 'fade-delay': The number of seconds before the particles disappears. You can set it to 0 to remove the fade delay
# 'max-selection-size' : The maximum size of a selection to be display. A big value (> 1000000) can cause important lags
