✨ New Feature: Late-Join Timer Sync

Players who join the server while a boss timer is already running will now immediately see the active boss bar, including the correct remaining time and progress.

🔧 What changed

• Active timers now track remaining time internally
• Joining players are automatically added to all active boss bars
• Boss bar title and progress are always accurate
• No timer restarts, duplication, or desync

✅ Result

• Restart timers stay visible for everyone
• Late joiners see the exact same countdown as online players
• Works with multiple simultaneous timers

⚠️ Notes

• Timers are still canceled on /bossbartimer reload for safety
• No config changes required

I’m super excited to release Version 2 of BossTimerMod! This update brings some major improvements and fixes that make managing timers on your Fabric server smoother, safer, and more fun.

🆕 What’s New

• I renamed the command from /bossbar to /bossbartimer — it just makes more sense now.
• Tab-completion is finally here! Type /bossbartimer start and it will suggest all available timers automatically.
• Permissions got a huge overhaul:
• bossbartimer.run lets you start or cancel any timer.
• bossbartimer.reload lets you reload configs safely.
• Reloading configs now cancels any active timers, so nothing gets stuck or repeats endlessly.
• Timers now stop properly after finishing, and after-commands only run once — no more infinite repeats!

🛠 What’s Fixed

• Fixed that annoying bug where the last message of a timer would keep repeating forever.
• Timers no longer block configuration reloads.
• Improved thread safety and stability for scheduled tasks.

⚡ Improvements I Made

• Cleaner handling of ScheduledFuture so timers cancel properly.
• Better logging when configs load or fail to load.
• Fully compatible with Fabric 1.21.1 and LuckPerms-based permissions.

📄 Example Config

 "restart": {
 "duration": 60,
 "bossbar_message": "⏳ Restart in %s seconds",
 "before": [
 "tellraw @a {\"text\":\"[ALERT] \",\"color\":\"red\",\"bold\":true,\"extra\":[{\"text\":\"An unplanned server restart is about to take place. Please plan accordingly.\",\"color\":\"yellow\"}]}",
 "title @a title {\"text\":\"Restart Incoming!\",\"color\":\"gold\"}"
 ],
 "after": [
 "tellraw @a {\"text\":\"[ALERT] \",\"color\":\"yellow\",\"bold\":true,\"extra\":[{\"text\":\"The server is restarting soon.\",\"color\":\"yellow\"}]}",
 "execute as @a run stopbattle @s"
 ],
 "triggers": {
 "30": { "message": "⏳ 30 seconds remaining." },
 "10": { "message": "⏰ 10 seconds!" },
 "5": { "message": "⚠️ Restarting soon..." }
 }
 }
}

I’m really proud of how this turned out, and I can’t wait to see it running on your servers!
