✨ What is NeON?
NeON turns every join and leave into an immersive event... say goodbye to ugly vanilla yellow messages!
With just a 'few' edits in the ```NeONconfig.yml```, you can: > - Elevate your chat with auto‑centered, MiniMessage & HEX‑coloured messages > - Surprise players with floating holograms (static, tracking or “breathing” animations) on join / leave > - Ignite the sky with custom fireworks (random bursts, hex colours, trails & flicker) > - Stylize join/leave events using particles for subtle ambiance or grand displays > - Get notified via event-correspondant sounds for join/leave (global or per-player) > - Command attention with titles, actionbars and bossbars (global or per‑player) > - Prompt joining players for resource pack usage
Born as the spiritual successor to my once popular CometWelcome, now entirely rewritten on modern builds of Paper, CometWelcome delivers everything CometWelcome could only dream of!
From an auto-updating configuration, plug‑and‑play Auto-Centering, HEX, and MiniMessage support, all the way to all‑new join/leave holograms, ✨ NeON is bound to be the ultimate welcome & farewell experience for your players!

🔧 Quick Start
1. Drop PlaceholderAPI Expansions and PlaceholderAPI Expansions into your `plugins/` folder. 2. Start your server – NeON will create a PlaceholderAPI Expansions `config.yml`. 3. If you don't already have these PlaceholderAPI Expansions installed run: ```mcfunction /papi ecloud download Player /papi ecloud download Server /papi ecloud download Essentials /papi reload ``` 4. Start configuring! - You can use ```/neon reload``` to hot-reload your configuration file. ---
> Tip: Mix legacy `&` colour codes, MiniMessage formatting, and PlaceholderAPI/NeON placeholders freely – NeON cleverly parses them all!
---
🤝 Integrations
- Vanish Plugins – endless placeholders. - %%MD1%% – modern formatting tags (`<gradient>`, `<hover>`, `<click>`…). - Vanish Plugins – %%MD2%% & VanishNoPacket are detected automatically. - (Essentials Vanish not supported.)
