Makes PacketEvents fully optional, stops your custom GUI items being wiped on update, and blocks look-alike team names. Adds admin bank commands, custom GUI buttons that run commands, resource-pack glyphs in tags and names, and explicit team or player targeting for the admin commands.

[1] PacketEvents is genuinely optional now. The plugin refused to start at all when PacketEvents was not installed, even though it has always been listed as an optional hook, because the chat input system referenced its classes directly and the server loads those before any setting is read. Those references are isolated now, so the plugin starts normally without PacketEvents and only Team Glow switches off. An installed but broken or mismatched PacketEvents no longer takes the plugin down either. Nothing changes if you already run it.

[2] Custom GUI items you added yourself are no longer deleted on update. The updater removed any key that was not in the shipped defaults, and everything under dummy-items in gui.yml is yours by definition, so custom decorative items and custom buttons were silently wiped the first time an update rewrote the file. That section is left alone now. This matters a lot with the new command buttons, which live in exactly that section.

[3] Team names can no longer be used to impersonate another team when Unicode names are turned on. Cyrillic and Greek letters that are drawn exactly like Latin ones (and full-width variants) meant a second team could take a name that looked identical to an existing one in chat, tab and every menu. Creation and rename now compare a folded form of the name, so those look-alikes are rejected as already taken. Names are still stored exactly as typed, genuinely different names in any language are unaffected, and the check only runs when settings.creation.allow_unicode is on.

[4] New admin bank commands: /team admin bank add , remove and set. Handy for event rewards and fixing an economy by hand. Like the points command it also accepts a player name, in which case that player's clan is used, and it takes either argument order. The money change runs through the same atomic database step the player bank uses, so it cannot collide with a deposit or withdraw happening at the same moment on another server, it respects your maximum bank balance, and the other servers re-read the team straight away.

[5] Custom GUI items can run commands now. Any item you add under dummy-items in gui.yml takes a commands list, so a button can open another plugin's menu (zMenu and the like), run a warp, or hand out a reward. Prefix a line with [console] to run it from console or [player] to run it as the clicker, and [close] to close the menu. %player% and PlaceholderAPI placeholders both work. Commands fire a tick after the click with the menu already closed, which is what lets another plugin's inventory open cleanly.

[6] Optional resource-pack glyphs in tags and names, set separately for each. settings.creation.allow_custom_glyphs has a tag and a name switch, so you can let players put your pack's custom icons in their tag while keeping names plain, or the other way round. Both off by default. Only the Private Use Area range that packs use is allowed, so each icon counts as one character against your length limits and no formatting or invisible character can slip in. Players without your pack see an empty box.

[7] Admin commands can target a team or a player explicitly. /team admin points and /team admin bank accept team: and player:, so if a team happens to share a name with a player there is no guesswork about which one gets the points or money. A bare name behaves exactly as before.

Database changes run automatically on first boot and your team data is preserved. Drop the jar in and restart. New config keys are merged into your existing files, nothing you have set is touched.
