Key Features
1. Automated Farming Contest System (Farm Contest)

• Automatic Rotation: Automatically starts/ends contests and randomly selects crops (Sugar Cane, Cactus, Pumpkin, Melon, Wheat...) on a scheduled timer.
• Real-time Leaderboard: Calculates scores, updates rankings, and distributes rewards with absolute accuracy for every player.
• Intuitive BossBar Display: Displays a live countdown timer and current score progress directly on screen.
• Smart Anti-Cheat: Tracks and remembers player-placed blocks to prevent infinite point exploits from placing and breaking the same crop.

2. Mutation System & Shop GUI

• Random Mutations: Harvesting crops gives a chance to yield mutated crops with ultra-rare attributes and massive score multipliers.
• Biome Dependence: Certain mutation types only appear in specific biomes, encouraging players to explore the world.
• Mutation Shop: Sleek GUI interface allowing players to buy, sell, trade, and upgrade mutated seeds/crops.

3. Data Storage & Flexible Integrations

• Cross-Platform Database: Supports SQLite (default, zero extra setup required).
• Seamless Sync: Automatically loads/saves player data on Join and Quit without causing server lag.
• Vault Integration: Reward players with in-game money directly into their balance upon winning.
• PlaceholderAPI Integration: Effortlessly display scores and ranks on Scoreboards, Tablists, Holograms, or Chat formats.
