## What It Does<\/p>\n
When you run `\/rankedsmp start`, every online player gets a random rank from 1 to 50. Lower numbers are better – they get stronger abilities, more health, extra inventory space, and longer potion effects.<\/p>\n
New players joining later automatically get a random rank too.<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
## Features<\/p>\n
– **Random unique ranks** (1-50, no duplicates)
\n– **Rank display** in nametags (bold, red, customizable)
\n– **Rank swap** – kill someone with a better rank to steal it
\n– **5 unique abilities** based on rank tier
\n– **Extra inventory** slots for top ranks
\n– **Extended potion duration** for ranks 1-30
\n– **Rank-based health** – better ranks get more hearts
\n– **Action bar display** showing your ability and cooldown
\n– **Full admin controls** for managing ranks<\/p>\n

\n– Added `\/rankset
\n– Added rank-based health system (separate config)
\n– Added health-config.yml<\/p>\n
