Java 17 / 21 TargetFolia CompatiblePaper / Purpur 1.20 - 1.21.4
Java Runtime: SentryWipe compiled targets require Java 17 or Java 21. Running on older runtimes will cause an immediate startup crash.

Economy (Optional)

Install Vault plus an economy provider (EssentialsX, CMI, etc.) to enable balance resets.
