NpcSkinUpdater

A lightweight Spigot plugin to dynamically update NPC skins based on PlaceholderAPI placeholders. Works perfectly with Citizens, FancyNpcs, or any other NPC plugin that supports command-line skin updates.

Features
- Highly Configurable: Change update intervals, target NPCs, and source placeholders.
- Universal Command Template: Define any skin command format (e.g. `npc skin {npc} {player}`).
- Reload Command: Reload configuration instantly in-game.
- Update Checker: Automatically notifies console and administrators when a new version is available on SpigotMC.
- Lightweight: Optimized scheduler to ensure zero server lag.
