🕒 ChronoBan — Cinematic Bans

ChronoBan redefines how bans look and feel on your Minecraft server. Instead of an instant kick, players experience a 6-second cinematic “time collapse” sequence — levitation, particle storms, sound effects, and a dramatic explosion that marks their ban in style.

This plugin is designed for 1.21+ and built with full customization, performance, and visual impact in mind.

⚡ Features

• 🎬 Cinematic Ban Sequence — levitates the target and surrounds them with energy before an explosive finale.
• 💥 Configurable Explosion Radius & Sounds — nearby players hear the blast.
• ✨ Particle Effects — customizable rings, beams, and explosions with multiple particle types.
• 🔊 Custom Sounds — every stage has its own sound configuration.
• 🌈 Full Message Formatting — supports MiniMessage, legacy & colors, and hex codes like &#00C3FF.
• 💬 Broadcasts & Auras — global ban announcements, executor aura, and kick messages.
• ⚙️ Highly Configurable — all visuals, timings, and messages are editable from config.yml and messages.yml.
• 🧩 Lightweight and Paper-Optimized — clean async-safe code with minimal resource footprint.
