# Spigot Chat Sync

Sync chat messages and death events across Minecraft servers using NATS.

## Features
- Chat sync across servers
- Death message sync across servers
- Per-server display name
- Legacy color code formatting
- Loop prevention by server id

## Requirements
- Spigot 1.21.1+ (Java 21)
- NATS server

## Configuration
Edit `src/main/resources/config.yml` or the generated `plugins/SpigotChatSync/config.yml`.

```yml
server:
  id: "server-1"
  name: "Server 1"

nats:
  url: "nats://localhost:4222"

subjects:
  chat: "mc.chat.sync"
  death: "mc.death.sync"

format:
  chat: "&7[&b{server}&7] &f{player}&7: &f{message}"
  death: "&7[&b{server}&7] &f{message}"
```

Only remote messages are formatted; local chat/death output stays unchanged.

## Build

```bash
mvn package
```

Or via Docker:

```bash
make docker-jar
```

The shaded jar will be in `target/`.

## Usage
1. Install the jar on each server.
2. Set a unique `server.id` and a friendly `server.name` on each server.
3. Point all servers to the same NATS instance.

## Message Placeholders
- `{server}`: configured server name
- `{player}`: player name
- `{message}`: chat or death text
- `{time}`: local server time in HH:mm
