OVERVIEW
================================================================================
NovaParties is a cross-server party plugin for BungeeCord and Velocity with Paper
backends. Create parties, invite friends network-wide, chat privately, manage
members from Vertex-styled chest GUIs, and queue or transfer as a group when
NovaQueues is installed — all with per-action LuckPerms nodes and optional
backend permission resolution over plugin messaging.
Proxy-authoritative | 8 max members | Hub GUIs
NovaQueues sync | NovaChat hook | Vertex messages
================================================================================
PLATFORMS & DEPLOYMENT
================================================================================
One license · three JARs:
· NovaParties-Bungee.jar — BungeeCord proxy
· NovaParties-Velocity.jar — Velocity proxy
· NovaParties.jar — Paper / Spigot backend (api 1.21+)
Party state lives in memory on the proxy. Backends open GUIs and relay player
actions to the proxy over plugin channel novaparties:main (protocol v1).
Deploy proxy and backend JARs together after updates — mismatched versions can
desync invites and member lists.
Soft dependencies
Proxy: NovaQueues (party queue expansion), NovaChat (party chat delivery)
Backend: PlaceholderAPI (optional)
================================================================================
FEATURES
================================================================================
[Cross-server] Invites, membership, leadership, and party chat sync
network-wide through the proxy — not per-server silos.
[Party chat] /party chat <message> — dedicated channel to online party
members across servers. Leader can enable/disable chat in
settings GUI. Optional NovaChat delivery on proxy when
NovaChat is installed; otherwise direct Adventure messages.
[Hub GUIs] Backend-only chest menus — party hub, member roster, paginated
network invite picker, settings, and confirm flows. Slate
chest-bar titles, emoji-first item names, Vertex lore voice.
[Invites] Timed pending invites (configurable timeout). Accept, deny,
kick, promote, and disband. Leader-only invite by default;
optional allow-member-invite in config.
[Leadership] Promote transfers leader role. Leader leave with other members
auto-promotes next member. Solo leader leave disbands party.
[Settings GUI] Leader toggles party chat on/off and open/closed state.
Disband with optional confirm screen.
[Confirm flows] Optional 27-slot confirm GUIs for kick, promote, and disband
— lime confirm / red cancel dye layout.
[NovaQueues] When NovaQueues is on the proxy, NovaParties registers a
PartyQueueExpansion — leader /queue join or /server pulls
all online party members into the same queue with shared
position and batch connect when slots open. Disband hook
leaves party queue when integrations.novaqueues.enabled.
[Permissions] Granular novaparties.* LuckPerms nodes per command/action.
permissions.use-backend resolves checks from the player's
current Paper server. permissions.require.* toggles per
action. Op bypass on backend (configurable).
[Messages] Vertex-palette messages.yml on backend — invites, list,
chat format, help lines. Reload via backend restart.
================================================================================
GUIs (Paper backend — /party gui)
================================================================================
Party Hub Create party, open members, invites, settings
Members Roster view — kick or promote with optional confirms
Invite browser Paginated online network players ({page}/{pages})
Settings Party chat toggle, open-party toggle, disband

================================================================================

Config toggle: permissions.require.<action> in backend config.yml can
disable LuckPerms checks per action (create, invite, kick, chat, etc.).
permissions.use-backend: true on proxy and backend queries the connected
Paper server for permission nodes via plugin messaging.

Proxy (Bungee / Velocity) — plugins/NovaParties/config.yml
permissions.use-backend Query player's backend for permission nodes
(default true)
================================================================================
NOVAQUEUES INTEGRATION
================================================================================
Requires NovaQueues on the same proxy (softdepend).
When a party leader joins a queue (/queue join or /server transfer), the
expansion adds all online party members to that queue — same queue name,
shared position, batch dequeue when enough slots open.
On party disband, NovaParties calls leavePartyQueue when
integrations.novaqueues.enabled is true on the backend config and NovaQueues
party-queue mode is enabled on the proxy.
Configure NovaQueues party-queue settings on the proxy for max size and leave
cascade behavior.
================================================================================
NOVACHAT INTEGRATION
================================================================================
Optional softdepend on BungeeCord and Velocity.
When NovaChat is present, party chat routes through NovaChatApiProvider for
delivery to online members. Without NovaChat, messages send directly via
Adventure legacy format on the proxy.
================================================================================
STORAGE
================================================================================
In-memory on proxy — party records, pending invites, and leadership are not
persisted to disk. Parties reset on proxy restart.
No MySQL or JSON storage layer — lightweight session-style party state.

On party disband, NovaParties calls leavePartyQueue when

party-queue mode is enabled on the proxy.
Configure NovaQueues party-queue settings on the proxy for max size and leave
cascade behavior.

When NovaChat is present, party chat routes through NovaChatApiProvider for
