Features

• Text Formatting: Supports bold, italic, and underline styles.
• Preserve Team Prefixes: Keeps server-side team prefixes and suffixes intact while applying custom colors only to the player name.
• Overhead Name Tag Hiding: Option to hide overhead name tags for players who are not assigned to any of your custom groups.
• Tab List Sorting: Automatically groups and prioritizes configured players at the top of the tab list.
• Groups in Locator: Hides players who are not in any of your custom groups from the Locator Bar HUD.
• In-Game Editor: A simple and clean GUI to manage all groups, players, and formatting settings. The default keybind to open the editor is N.
