CraftersStaff v10.2.9 – Unified Language & Official PlaceholderAPI Support

This version 10.2.9 is focused on polishing the plugin's foundation for international networks and better preparing integration with other server systems.

• 🌐 Unified Default Language – English

  • Fixed the language selector to always respect the value configured in general.language inside config.yml.
  • The internal default language is now English (en), with normalization of invalid codes and better fallbacks when unsupported values are used.

• 🖥️ Improved Branding & Console Messages

  • Fixed startup branding colors in console; legacy color codes & now display correctly.
  • All console messages respect the configurable prefix defined in general.prefix, maintaining a consistent visual identity in server logs.

• 📊 Official PlaceholderAPI Support (cstaff expansion)

  • New official PlaceholderAPI support via the cstaff expansion, designed specifically for HUDs, scoreboards, TAB and staff network menus.
  • Includes placeholders to display the player's Staff Mode and Vanish status, as well as staff counters both at individual server level and across the entire network (proxy).
  • The system is ready to work in hybrid Spigot/Paper + Velocity environments, leveraging the craftersstaff:main messaging channel to request and receive staff counts from the proxy when needed.

In summary, CraftersStaff v10.2.9 strengthens the plugin's internationalization, improves the administration experience in console and opens the door to more advanced integrations with PlaceholderAPI in professional network configurations.
