CourierPrime is a physical mail system for Spigot/Paper Minecraft servers that allows users to send letters in the form of books and receive them through couriers. Admins can use this to send letters to all players at once as a way of sending a message that people will be sure to see.
Purpose
CourierPrime is maintaining fork of a Spigot plugin called CourierNew. Many projects nowadays rely on this plugin, and recent Minecraft updates, broke some mechanics of the plugin. This fork is made with this in mind, with the intention of keeping the plugin accessible for free, forever.
Usage
< > - Mandatory arguments
( ) - Optional arguments
After running for the first time, the default configs will be generated. The main configuration will look like this:
For the message configuration, you can use color codes. You can also use the placeholder $PLAYER$ in messages that have it by default, to replace it with player name(s). The messages and their names should explain what they are used for.
You can create a new language yml file, and load it on the config, as long as it contains all messages.
The outgoing.yml configuration file is actually used to store outgoing mail. Don't modify this file unless you know exactly what you are doing!
