DeltaStaff | Effortless Staff Management v2.0.1

Fixed

• Crash on 1.8.8 servers caused by getHand() calls (only exists in 1.9+).
• Added a version check to safely handle main hand/off hand across all versions.

Changed

• Removed hard dependency on EquipmentSlot.HAND.
• Interaction events now default to main hand on 1.8, and ignore off-hand on 1.9+.
