🚀 Key Features

📋 List all voice chat groups
View all active Simple Voice Chat groups, including those with password protection. Groups with passwords show [locked] instead of revealing the password.
🆕 Create new groups with optional persistence or password protection
Groups can be created as persistent or non-persistent. Persistent groups may optionally be secured with a password.
🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Join players to existing groups
The join command supports selectors like @a, @s, @r, and @p. The internal playerGroupMap ensures group state consistency.
❌ Remove players from groups
Players can be removed from their current group using selectors. The kick subcommand no longer requires an explicit group argument.
🗑️ Safely delete groups
Non-persistent groups are automatically deleted when empty. Persistent groups remain until manually removed.
🛡️ Access control via permissions
All group management commands are protected by voicechat.group.manage.
⚡ Full tab completion support
Commands, players, selectors, group names, and quoted arguments support Folia-safe tab completion.
📌 Persistent groups
Persistent groups remain available even after all members leave, making them ideal for staff, admin, or permanent team channels.
🔁 Persistent groups across restarts (optional)
A new configuration option persistent-groups-should-survive-restart allows persistent groups to survive restarts or reloads (default: false).
➖ Create empty groups
Using @null with /vcgroup create allows creating a group without any players initially.
🐞 Debug logging and safe error handling
Clear messages and robust error handling ensure high stability.
ℹ️ /vcgroup info command
Displays the group type, persistence, lock status, and current members.
⚙️ Automatic handling of empty non-persistent groups
Non-persistent groups are removed automatically when the last player leaves.
🔧 Per-player VoiceChat permission system (/vcpermission)
Fully custom per-player permission management for Simple Voice Chat:
- listen — listen in voice chat
- speak — speak in voice chat
- group — create or join voice groups
Permissions support give, remove, default, and reset, are stored in config.yml, survive restarts, and are applied live.
✅ Fixed /vcpermission command
The permission system is now fully functional and reliably enforced.
🔌 Broad platform compatibility
Fully compatible with Bukkit, Spigot, Paper, and Folia from Minecraft 1.8.8 up to 1.21.x.
