• %someclans_balance%

• if tag is empty, it returns the clan name
• if the player has no clan, it returns the configured fallback value

Economy

Supported economy sources:

• CMI

Clan wallet supports two separate balances:

• coins
• PlayerPoints

Clan chest

• Upgrade-based size growth
• Shift-click is allowed in the clan chest
• Number key hotbar transfer is allowed in the clan chest
• Fast item transfer is blocked in other GUI menus

Visual armor mode

Clan armor color is visual for clan members.

Important:

• real armor items and stats are not changed
• viewers in the same clan receive a colored visual equipment update
• other players still see the real armor

Build notes

If mvn package fails during shading with an error similar to:

Could not replace original artifact with shaded artifact

it usually means the previous jar in target/ is locked by the server or another process.
