README

Better Local Chat

  • Wax poetically about your deep thoughts with ~300% longer messages (164 ⇒ 480 char limit)
  • No more ugly message prefixes!
  • LOCAL messages show in Global too!
  • /l command to chat from GLOBAL without changing tabs!
  • Use server commands (e.g., !kick, !spawn meatball) without emitting speech or creating a chat bubble

While chatting in GLOBAL you can now prefix any message with a new /l command in order to send it as a LOCAL message. (Although I don't imagine it will happen often you can also combine /l /me emotes and chain these commands to emote in LOCAL. /l works the very same way that your /me emotes do.)

Additionally, LOCAL messages are also shown under the GLOBAL tab with a clean and simple message prefix for distinction. This way, you don't have to choose missing out on GLOBAL messages while having a LOCAL conversation. Now you can have both.

The glitchy-looking text cramping up everyone's messages in the LOCAL tab is patched and removed, too.

Using server commands like !kick player will now be sent silently without emitting speech or a chat bubble. This is enabled by default _but can be disabled in the mod configuration__.
