Thunderstore development is made possible with ads. Please consider making an exception to your adblock. Composition and Sending
- If you reach the 50 character limit for a chat message, it wraps onto the next line instead of cutting you off.
- You can also manually insert a line break with
Shift-Enter.
- You can move the cursor with
Home, End, and the Left and Right arrow keys.
- You can use
Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V to copy and paste.
- The special characters
<, >, and = are now allowed.
- Beware: Things can get weird if you use rich text tags, especially across multiple lines. You have been warned.
- You can use
F1-F4 to choose the target of your message.
- The target player's name is displayed at the beginning of the message, like
[Bot]Bishop, Lets not do that again.
- Compatible with LobbyExpansion, using
F5-F8.
History
- While the chat is open, you can use the mouse wheel to scroll up and down through the chat history.
- Chat history persists across multiple expeditions and even multiple lobbies.
Typing Indicators
- When another BetterTextChat user is typing, a message like
[PlayerName is typing...] is displayed.
- Likewise, other BetterTextChat users see the same message when you are typing.
- Can be disabled in
BepInEx/config/BetterTextChat.cfg.
Message Timestamps
- Displays the time each message was received.
- This feature is currently disabled by default, but can be enabled in
