🗃️ Data Storage

(Database storage support planned for future updates.)

🧩 Permissions Overview

• virtualstorages.use.# → Access backpack number # (1–999)
• virtualstorages.admin → Use /vsreload
• virtualstorages.admin → Use /backpackview <player>

A permissions plugin (like LuckPerms) is required to manage these effectively.
