Mentions

Players can mention others by typing @PlayerName or just PlayerName in chat. Mentioned players receive a sound effect, title notification, and the mention is highlighted in chat.

By default, mentioning yourself won’t trigger sounds, titles, or notifications — but the highlight still appears:

prevent-self: true

mention:
sender: "%rc_prefix%&aYou mentioned &6{targets}"
target: "%rc_prefix%&eYou were mentioned by &6{sender}"

Placeholders: {sender}, {display_name}, {targets}.
