Glowing Armour Trims

  • Adds an enchantment-style glint to any armour piece that has a trim, so trims visibly glow without adding real enchantments.
  • Listens for smithing previews, inventory clicks/drags, and player joins to mark trimmed items, with a periodic sweep over online players to catch items added by other plugins or future game updates.
  • Uses the Bukkit/Paper ItemMeta#setEnchantmentGlintOverride(true) API, keeping item stats unchanged while forcing the visual glow.
  • Items in unopened containers gain the glow once a player interacts with them; dropped items keep their glow once it is applied. Behaviour is fully automatic—no commands or configuration are needed.
  • If you want different scan timing or broader container coverage, tweak the rescan interval or extend the inventory checks in the plugin code.
