Commands:
- /radar give - Gives you a radar (permission : radar.give)
- /radar give <player> - Gives other player a radar (permission : radar.give.other)
- /radar reload - Reload the configuration files (permission : radar.reload)

Available format variables:
{name} = Name of the player using the radar
{target} = Name of the player being targeted
{range} = Range between the player and target in blocks
& + <color codes> = Let you give colors in the format
