NightVote - Player-Driven Night Skipping

Tired of nights dragging on when your players just want to get back to daytime activities? NightVote allows your players to democratically decide whether to skip the current night!

When night begins to fall, or when triggered by an admin, a vote will start. Players can simply type `Y` or `N` in chat to cast their vote. If the majority agrees, the server time swiftly transitions to morning!

-----------------------------------------------------

Features

• Automatic Night Votes: Initiates a vote when night approaches in configured worlds.
• Manual Vote Start: Admins can trigger votes anytime.
• Simple Y/N Voting: Easy and intuitive for all players.
• Configurable:
  • Vote duration.
  • Minimum players required to start a vote.
  • Percentage of "Yes" votes needed to pass.
  • Worlds where automatic votes are enabled.
  • Customizable messages (prefix, vote start/end, results, etc.).
• Permissions: Fine-grained control over who can start votes, cancel votes, and reload the config.
• Lightweight: Designed to be efficient.
