README

All features work client-side unless otherwise mentioned.

  • Can now scroll through chat history (once there's enough history, just scroll with mousewheel while the chat input is active!)
    • Chat history is no longer limited to 4 messages
    • A scrollbar shows your position in history.
  • Increases the 30 character message limit (default: 1000, configurable by host)
    • NOTE: For this, the mod also needs to be installed by the host.
      Without it, the limit can only be increased to ~50.
  • Increases the size of the chat area (toggleable)
    • Changes the default font size so that more text can fit (configurable)
  • Removes the apostrophes (') around chat messages.
  • Can now use Shift+Enter to insert line breaks in your messages.
  • Messages you receive while the clock is visible will now have timestamps (can be disabled in config)
  • You can now say the same thing multiple times in a row
    • NOTE: Only players with the mod installed will be able to see repeat messages

CHANGELOG

1.2.7

Max message history is now configurable and defaults to 15 for performance reasons

1.2.6

(Targeting v62/v64)

  • The range at which players can hear each other is now customizable by the host.
  • Dead, spectating players can now chat with one another.
    • Living players cannot hear dead players, unless the host enables it.
    • The names of dead players are color-coded grey.
  • When both you and the sender of a message are holding an active walkie-talkie, the name is color-coded green.
    • This is to clarify a vanilla feature where any players holding active walkies can hear each other's messages at any distance.

1.2.5

  • Fixes an issue where the character limit would not increase for clients when playing with TooManyEmotes
  • Chat now fully fades away by default
  • Adds a workaround to improve compatibility with mods like LethalLoudnessMeter that add HUD elements in the bottom-left corner, preventing their HUD elements from fading when the chat fades.
  • The color of the text in the input field can now be configured, and defaults to white for better visibility

1.2.4

  • Adds a workaround for an incompatibility with MirrorDecor

1.2.3

  • Scrollbar now only appears while the chat input is focused
  • Scrollbar can now be hidden completely in config (#4)
