⚠️ DISCLAIMER: Artificial Intelligence was used in the development of this plugin.

[!NOTE] Strangers turns your server into an anonymous survival game where all players share the same skin, names are hidden, and proximity voice is distorted. No client-side mods are required for regular players (Simple Voice Chat is only needed if you want proximity voice).

🌟 Key Features

• 🎭 Total Disguise: Everyone receives the same skin (configurable in config.yml) and is renamed to "Stranger". Overhead name tags are hidden, tab list names are masked, and player lists are hidden from the server ping menu.
• 🎙️ Real-Time Voice Changer: Native hook for Simple Voice Chat that shifts player voice pitch down (default 0.67x) on proximity voice so no one can recognize who is speaking.
• ❤️ 3-Lives System: Players start with a set amount of lives (default 3), displayed on their action bar with custom colored hearts (💛 💛 💛 / ❤️ ❤️ / 🖤 / ☠). Configurable to only lose lives on PvP deaths.
• ⚡ Cipher Death Reveal: When an eliminated player dies, a scrambled title animation decodes their real name letter by letter for all online players before executing the configured penalty (BAN, KICK, or spectator).
• 🧭 Identity Tracker NameTag: Craftable compass tracker. Right-click to choose an online player from a head GUI, then sneak + right-click to start a 5-minute track with a bossbar HUD. Reveals the target's true identity and skin only to the hunter.
• 📖 Revive Book: A high-tier craftable book that opens a GUI of dead players. Revives a chosen player with 1 life (each player can only be revived once per game).
• 🌍 Event Setup & Scatter: Run /strangers start to open a confirmation GUI that sets the world border and safely scatters players onto solid surface terrain under open skies with minimum distance spacing.
• 🛡️ Information Leak Protection: Blocks /msg, /tell, target selectors (@p, @a), book signatures, and tab completions that could give away who is online.
• 👁️ Admin Bypass: Staff with strangers.bypass can toggle /strangers bypass to see all real names and original skins at any time.
