Fixed: Version check + rendering correctness.

• Minor internal adjustments for Paper API 1.21.10 field/method consistency.
• Ensured all Adventure/MiniMessage components render correctly under 1.21.10.
• Corrected version comparison so notifications are only shown when the loaded plugin is older than the Spigot release.
• No console/OP spam when the remote version is equal to or older than the local plugin version.
• Handles semantic versions and pre-release tags (alpha, beta, rc, SNAPSHOT) correctly.

​

New

• Support for Minecraft 1.21.10
• Updated build target and dependency to paper-api:1.21.10-R0.1-SNAPSHOT.
• Verified AFK detection, Control Panel, PlaceholderAPI, and MiniMessage rendering remain fully functional.
• Improved build metadata for clearer version tracking during startup (onEnable / onDisable now include plugin version).

​

Improvements

• Cross-version reliability: confirmed safe operation from Spigot 1.8.8 through Paper 1.21.10.

​

• PaperMC 1.21.x
  Latest Paper build line where features and GUI interactions were verified.
  
• Spigot 1.20.6
  Baseline Spigot compatibility check completed.

​

• Spigot/Paper 1.8.x → 1.21.x
  Cross-version color/formatting and GUI holders keep features stable on legacy + modern.

​

Release Type: Maintenance + Feature Enhancement
Tested On: PaperMC 1.21.x / Spigot 1.20.6
Supported Versions: 1.8.x → 1.21.x
​

• Fixed: MiniMessage and prefix rendering issues.

• MiniMessage formatting now properly renders in chat.
• Prefix display restored.
• Players were instantly kicked upon rejoining after an AFK timeout due to outdated activity timestamps. Activity now refreshes automatically on rejoin to prevent repeat kicks.

• Added: Quality-of-life features for admins and operators.

• Version update notifier: Sends a friendly join notification (with a clickable link) when a newer version is available on SpigotMC. Controlled by updates.enabled and permission afkcontrol.admin (customizable via updates.notifyPermission).
• Admin Kick Command — /afkcontrol kick <player> <reason>: Confirmation-based flow with a clickable [CONFIRM KICK] button, informative hover text, colorized console logs, and tab completion for player names and common reasons. Permission: afkcontrol.kick (included under afkcontrol.admin).
• AFK Control Panel Toggle: The Status item is now toggleable (left/right click) to enable/disable AFK checks, with feedback to the player and console.

• Improved: Stability, clarity, and cross-version behavior.

• Cleaner YAML handling and safer configuration fallbacks.
• Cross-version stability: modernized MiniMessage/legacy color rendering works seamlessly from 1.8 → 1.21.
• Panel layout polish: clearer timing icons and richer hover details.
• AFKManager refactor: clearer, version-safe structure for tracking player activity and AFK pool regions; cleaner API for toggles, selections, and boundaries; beginner-friendly docs throughout.
