🆕 What's New in v1.0.9

🛡️ PvP Immunity Tracking

A new dedicated immunity system has been added for important PvP effects such as Divine Shield, Ice Block, Blessing of Protection, Berserker Rage, Fear Ward and other supported abilities.

Immunity tracking uses a strict spell whitelist so unrelated buffs cannot accidentally appear as immunity icons.

Immunities have their own:

Enable/disable option
Icon size
Position setting
Independent display logic

Supported positions are:

Top
Left
Right

Immunity icons are also removed quickly when the aura ends or is cancelled.

✨ Divine Shield / Ice Block Cleanup

Protection effects such as Divine Shield and Ice Block now correctly clean up BNP's stored aura state where appropriate.

This prevents removed debuffs or Crowd Control effects from remaining visible because of stale aura information.

👤 Hide Player and NPC Names

Two new nameplate options have been added:

Hide Player Names
Hide NPC/Mob Names

These settings are independent, allowing player names and NPC names to be controlled separately.

When a name is hidden, top-positioned aura icons automatically move closer to the healthbar to use the newly available space.

☠️ Expanded Debuff Positioning

Debuff placement has been significantly expanded.

Available positions are now:

Top Mid
Top Left
Top Right
Left
Right
Bottom Mid
Bottom Left
Bottom Right

Top Mid replaces the previous standard Top layout and remains the default.

Bottom layouts also interact correctly with castbar positioning.

🌀 Improved CC Row Layout

The optional Separate CC Row can now be used with all three top debuff alignments:

Top Mid
Top Left
Top Right

When CCs and debuffs share the same row, their individual icon sizes are now taken into account.

For example, 18 px debuffs and 24 px CC icons can be displayed together without overlapping.
