What is it
TabAPI is an API that is designed to allow developers make use of the Player Tab List in their plugins. It allows a simple way for Dev's to take control of it on a per-player basis to provide ingame stats, custom tab menus, hud's and more!
Examples

Requirements
This plugin requires Protocollib to function.
For Server Owners
If you are a server owner, then simply select the version that matches your server version and download it. This will allow plugins that use this API to take advantage of the API to change the tab list.
Plugins Using TabAPI
- SuperSpleef - When the New update is released.
- TabConfig - Fully Customizable Tab list!
- McMMO TabSkillz - View your McMMO skills on the tab!
- TabToTheMax - Customizable Tab List!
- More Coming Soon!
Limits
- The minecraft tab list does not support two tabs of the same content. So for example, if you set one square to "test" and anther to "test", only one will be displayed. A workaround for this is you can just add either spaces or color codes to the end to make them unique.
- the updatePlayer function has to clear the entire tab list and resend it due to mc just appending new packets to the end of the list. therefor, only call this functions as needed (ie once a loop is done, not in the loop), otherwise it will end up causing both lag and high bandwidth usage.
- Currently only supports tab list with three columns (dev release issue)
- Currently If no plugin takes control of the tab list, it will show a blank list instead of the default player list (dev release issue)

Posted Feb 13, 2013Using the example listener that Malo made, it does not remove players from the tablist after they disconnect. Also it takes a while to add them to it when they first log in. Is this just happening to me, or is it everyone?

Posted Feb 13, 2013You should add extra tab API. Bukkit made it so when someone logs into the game and uses TAB, it only tells the client 60 players are online giving it the 3 columns. If you override that..

Posted Feb 13, 2013@CorruptedHelix Not sure exactly what you want.. but you need protocallib installed, and an addon for tabapi to change the tab or else tabapi will just make the tab blank with the current release.

Posted Feb 13, 2013Attempting to use TabAPI on my 95-slot server makes the playerlist unseeable. No one appears in the tablist. Only plugin installed that makes use of TabAPI is PropHunt.

You don't have to list the players online with it.. we have way over 60 and its fine.

Posted Feb 12, 2013Seems interesting - only issue is some larger servers will have more than 60 players, etc.
I like the look though!
