Core Features
🗺️ WorldGuard → Marketplace

📋 Sub Template System
Create and reuse sub templates to configure publish templates:
- Listing Templates

🪄 Setup Wizard
/nrm setup launches a full GUI wizard — detect regions, create templates, assign pricing, configure flags. No YAML editing required.
🚩 Flag Groups
Define baseline protection flags. Optionally unlock specific flags for owner customization. NRM automatically reapplies the correct state when needed.

Owners can add/remove members, assign roles, and sync WorldGuard membership — all via GUI.
⚡ Inactivity → Auction
Abandoned listings automatically move to auction after a configurable inactivity window. Fully automated bidding and finalization.

FAQ — ARM vs NRM
Does NRM support everything ARM does?
Short answer: No — intentionally. NRM is not a legacy clone. It replaces outdated structures with modern architecture.
| Category | ARM | NRM |
|---|---|---|
| Preset Architecture | Deeply nested preset chains with layered inheritance | Modular Template + Flag Group system |
| Preset Inheritance | Complex inheritance trees with chained overrides | Simplified; edge-case chaining intentionally not mirrored |
| WorldGuard Mechanics | Includes legacy WG-specific mechanics | Built around modern WG flag categories |
| Deprecated Flag Support | Retained for backward compatibility | Intentionally removed |
| Rental Limit Stacking | Very granular per-player/group/region combos | Structured model — clear and maintainable |
| Limit Complexity | Highly flexible, difficult to reason at scale | Predictable, easier to manage long-term |
Why these differences?
ARM evolved over many years and accumulated significant technical debt. NRM was built fresh with:
- Clean modular service architecture
- Async database operations
- Designed for Paper 1.21+
- No legacy compatibility shims
- Built to scale on large networks
Coming Soon
- 🌐 Proxy Support (Velocity)
