========================================
           HOLY GRAIL
   The Ultimate Capture & Hold Plugin
========================================

Transform your Rust server with an exciting capture-and-hold gameplay experience! The Holy Grail plugin introduces a legendary item that players must find, capture, and protect to earn rewards and eternal glory.

========================================
              OVERVIEW
========================================

Holy Grail spawns a unique, trackable item somewhere in your server's world. Players compete to find, capture, and hold onto the Grail. Whoever is holding the Grail when the wipe ends is crowned the winner and receives configurable rewards along with their team if enabled!

========================================
         HOW IT WORKS
========================================

1. SPAWN
   The Holy Grail spawns in a random valid container somewhere in the world (barrels, crates, etc.)

2. DISCOVERY
   Players searching loot containers may find the Grail. Proximity effects help guide nearby players.

3. CAPTURE
   When a player picks up the Grail, their hold time begins tracking. Server announcements alert everyone if enabled.

4. PROTECT
   The holder must protect the Grail from other players. They receive holder effects (buffs or debuffs based on config).

5. COMPETE
   Players can store the Grail in their base containers - time still accumulates for the container owner.

6. WIN
   At wipe end, whoever is currently holding the Grail wins and receives configured rewards the next time they log in!
