Adds several useful features to the chat
Chat Utils adds several useful features related to the chat, including quick tell, respond and colorful chat. You can also use /help in the game to find out what each command does. Below is the list of additions:
Set a quick id with /qset <id> (alias: /qid) that you can later message with /q <message>. Alternatively, you can respond to the latest /tell message from another player with /respond <message> (alias: /r). If you've just sent a private message to someone, using /respond will message that person.
You can clear the chat with /clear (alias: /c). If you instead just want to hide the chat temporarily, use /show to toggle between showing and hiding it. Via the options (opened with /cuoptions, alias /cuo), you can toggle the position of the chat between left and right and also set the max number of messages (256 by default; after surpassing this number, the oldest messages will be deleted)
Notifications can be configured from the options menu (/cuoptions). You can choose to receive notifications for all messages or only for chat mentions
The timestamps of messages can be toggled from the options (/cuoptions)
To stop receiving messages from a player, use /block <id>, and to unblock them, use /unblock <id>.
Message multiple people by using /group (alias: /g). This will open up a gui with a "members" field, a "message" field and a send button. The ids of the members must be comma separated. To send the message, you can also press enter
Using /local <message> (alias: /l) will message all players within a specific distance (500 pixels by default) which can be set with /lset <distance>. You can find which players are within a certain distance from you by using /nearby <distance> (if no distance is specified, the local chat distance will be used instead)
If you wish to yell at someone for whatever reason, you can use /yell <id> <message> to tell them a very friendly message in all caps, or just /yell <message> to yell the message globally.
Some words and player nicknames are colored in the chat (incompatible with /tell messages and messages containing links). For example, red will become red, rgb will become rgb, and NothingHere7759 will become NothingHere7759, all words being case insensitive. All hex color codes starting with # will have the color that they specify, and mentions of your id will be colored red. If you don't want words inside your message to be colored how they normally would be, place a dollar sign $ right at the beginning, or two dollar signs $$ to disable markdown too. If you want your nickname added, you can comment or discord dm me the nickname and how you would like it to look.
In your messages, you can use a slightly modified markdown notation to format your messages:
code, place it between acute accents `rb instead of the hex code)k[ ] for unchecked items, or with [X] for checked onesIf you want to use several types of formatting which are all written using curly brackets, you can place all of their strings next to one another and use only one pair of curly brackets. For example, if you want to write some red text with a green glow, you can do {FF0000g00FF00 text} or {g00FF00FF0000 text}
To use markdown in the nickname, place a # at the beginning. To color your whole nickname (with the id too), place a hex color code (or rb for rainbow) right after the #
For example: *This* is a ***sample*** {FF0000 text} will be rendered as "This is a sample text"
