Added

• Quest NPC System: Added configurable quest NPC behavior on the existing shopkeeper entity (no duplicate entity type).
  • NPC role modes: SHOP and QUEST.
  • New admin tools/commands: /eco quest list, /eco questnpc list, /eco questnpc get <id>.
  • New quest GUI flow with accept/progress/claim/cancel states and dialogue lines.
• Quest Configs: Added per-world quest files:
  • quests.json for quest definitions/objectives/rewards.
  • quest_npcs.json for quest NPC definitions (name, skin, dialogue, quest pool, max active).
• Quest Progression Tracking: New SQLite persistence (quests.db) for per-player quest state and objective progress.
• Default Quest Content: Added a large default quest pack including:
  • Capture by type/species/dimension/shiny.
  • Capture with specific balls.
  • Capture specific species with specific balls.
  • Label-based targets (radiant/paradox/legendary/mythical).
  • Battle win, raid win, tower win, and fossil-revive objectives.
  • Themed pools for Safari, Fisherman, Explorer, Duel, Ballistics, and Fossil Curator NPCs.
• Quest Rotation & Scheduling:
  • Daily board/rotation with capped visible missions (default 4).
  • Supports shared rotation for all players and configurable rotation windows (MIDNIGHT or HOURS).
  • Cooldown/availability can be tied to the next board rotation.
• Quest Rules:
  • repeatable, cooldownMinutes, timeLimitMinutes, and requiresCompleted prerequisite chains.
  • Paid cancellation flow with confirmation (double right-click) and fee (1000 by default).
  • Cancelled/expired quests can be locked until next rotation.
• Quest UX/Feedback:
  • Time remaining and cooldown remaining displayed in GUI.
  • Clear success/error messages (accepted, claim ready/not ready, too many active quests, cooldown, locked, prerequisites missing, cancel rules).

Changed

• Config Split for Shops: Shop definitions are now separated into world/config/cobblemon-economy/shops.json, while economy/global options stay in world/config/cobblemon-economy/config.json.
• Automatic Migration: On first boot after update, if shops.json is missing, legacy config.json.shops is read and exported to shops.json automatically.
• Reload/Admin Workflow: Shop edits should now be done in shops.json (not config.json) and reloaded with /eco reload.
• Quest UI: Moved to a custom 9x6 board-style layout with focused mission cards and detailed objective wording.
• Quest Copy/Localization: Expanded and polished EN/FR translations for quest statuses, objective details, filters, and system messages.
• Placeholder API Compatibility: Integration now supports both legacy and current PB4 Placeholder API class/package variants.
• Placeholder Namespace Focus: Placeholder registration now targets the cobeco namespace for consistency.
• Display Formatting: Balance and PCO placeholders are now rendered as rounded whole numbers.

Fixed

• Duplicate Capture Rewards: Added capture reward de-duplication guard for duplicate capture callbacks.
• NPC Nameplate Visibility: Fully disabled rendered nameplates to prevent residual text above NPC heads.
• Quest Dialogue Spam: Added throttling and non-spam refresh behavior when the quest GUI reopens.

Compatibility

• Backward Compatible: Existing worlds/configs continue to work:
  • Legacy worlds with inline config.json.shops continue to load.
  • shops.json is generated from legacy shop data when missing.
  • If both formats exist, shops.json is the authoritative shop source.
  • Existing NPCs default to SHOP role unless explicitly assigned as quest NPCs.
• TAB Integration: Added optional TAB placeholder registration with auto-reload-safe hooks.
  • New placeholders: %cobeco_balance%, %cobeco_balance_symbol%, %cobeco_pco%, %cobeco_pco_symbol%, %cobeco_unique_captures%.
• Unique Capture Placeholder Support: Added unique_captures support to Placeholder API placeholders.
  • Reads live Pokedex data when available and persists capture counts for offline display.
