WARNING - This update will set your config and messages to default
So don't blindly update, unless you're fine with default settings.
Your old files will be renamed with a _v3_old suffix like (config_v3_old.yml) if you need them.
This is necessary because there's too many changes to auto update the files.

This update is a major refactor of most of the code, so there's too many changes to list them all.
Some of the most important changes are:

• Reorganized the permissions into a better structure (Wiki updated) and now every command also has a proper separate permission
• The command help menu now is paginated, clickable and hoverable, also only shows command you have permission for
• The messages file now has more consistent variables, including a global prefix one (finally) and quite a few color/text changes
• The config file was also restructured, some settings were moved around, merged or removed
• Added a custom WorldGuard flag "pvp-protection" to remove protection in any regions you set it. More flags are likely coming, need suggestions
• Plugins that hook into PvPManager will break and will need to be updated (Wiki API page updated)
• Java 17 is now the minimum version to run the plugin
• Many other visual/internal changes here and there

This is the first beta release so bugs are possible.
If there are no major issues, the next update will no longer be marked as beta, in case you require more stability. Otherwise expect more beta updates.
