### [REQUIRES PROTOCOLLIB (DEV BUILD FOR 1.18)](https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/protocollib.1997/)

### Features

* Show nicknames above player heads, in tab list, in chat, and in player join/leave messages

* Nicknames support spaces.

* Show AFK status in tab list, and optionally above player heads (see caveat below)

* Broadcast message when player goes AFK.

* AFK status automatically removed when player moves their mouse (camera) or types in chat.

* Players auto AFK after configurable amount of time (can be disabled).

* AFK players auto-kicked after configurable amount of time (can be disabled).

* Administrator commands to nick/unnick other players.

### Caveats

* Nicknames are limited to 16 characters as this is the maximum allowed above player heads

    * Yes this can be upped to 48 with scoreboards but I chose not to add this for better plugin compatibility.

* If showing AFK status above player head is enabled and a player's username/nickname is longer than 10 characters, their nicknames will be truncated to 9 characters due to limitation above.

* Player will flicker for ~2 ticks when their AFK status or nickname changes.

### Compatibility

* This plugin doesn't touch scoreboards, so any plugins using that should work fine.

* Probably not compatible with other mods which inject data into Play.Server.PLAYER_INFO packets or depend on those packets not being sent randomly.

### Commands

* /nick [nickname]: Set your own nickname.

* /nonick: Remove your own nickname.

* /nicklist: List users and their nicknames.

* /afk: Toggle your AFK status.

* /setothernick [player] [nickname]: Set the nickname of another player. Needs OP (or permission node).

* /delothernick [player]: Remove the nickname of another player. Needs OP (or permission node).

* /nickafkreload: Reload plugin configuration file. Needs OP (or permission node).
