// Automatic player migration on node failure
eura.on('playerMigrated', (player, oldNode, newNode) => {

// Music continues seamlessly!
});
// Manual error recovery
await eura.recoverFromError(error, 'manual-recovery');
// Health monitoring
const health = await eura.performHealthCheck();

// Save player states on shutdown
process.on('SIGINT', async () => {
await eura.savePlayersState('./players.json');

});
// Load player states on startup
client.on('ready', async () => {
