This is already possible with mChatSuite and has already been implemented on a lot of popular servers. There is a variable in the config.yml that can allow you to cut chat down to a certain radius ("mchat.chatDistance") Setting this to say 50 will only allow people within a 50 block radius to see chat. There is also a command (/shout) that would broadcast as you want to the whole server. To differentiate these I have created a variable to be added to format.chat (+dtype) this will be replaced with 2 variable from the locale.yml "format.local" or "format.shout" depending on if it is a shout or if it is local. If it is neither it is just removed. Hope this is clear enough. PM me for more details if you need more help.

This is not a bug, issue, or an idea (yet). It's a question :)

I've spent the last week trying to get HeroChat to allow me to format my chat, and I've been unable to due to lazy and useless developers who are not interested in actually helping server admins (He told me that "he doesn't care").

Anyways, here is how I would like to set up my chat. I have two channels, Local and Global. I want all users to be automatically focused in on Local chat while on the server, and when they need to speak Globally, they must type '/g <message>'. I do not want users to be able to focus on the Global channel. This way I can cut down on the amount of messages flooding every user (often we have people speaking in the Global channel even when they are speaking to a person only a few blocks away, by forcing local channel the other users aren't subjected to other users chat as often).

Can this plugin provide me with a solution to chat flooding like the one above? Or should I continue to look for a plugin that can?

Thank you very much, Trewyy

You did not read the config.yml help page did you? http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/mchat/pages/config-yml-help/

@dwdminecraft

How sadly correct you are

@ASWeiler

odds of that are slim. Most mchat users are not developers nor major Server admins. As in little local community servers, if not even a community server at all. But I could be wrong.

@MiracleM4n

Not a problem, you are very welcome osrry for such a delay in response. :)

I was considering of taking a loan out myself for a better PC as I am running an pentium D 2.8 GHz w/ a somewhat friend mobo lol don't even ask me how I got it to work and running again. Mobo was nearly smoking like it had cancer

Notice to everyone!

Our friend MiracleM4n has a broken computer. He needs your donations to be able to continue major work on mChat. Right now all he has to use is a 11" laptop to code off of.

Please help by clicking http://cmlink.us/Xb and sending whatever you can! ==

@simpsda I don't think there is a way cause if you set the join leave messages to blank it most likely will still show the name just not the "has left the game:" part.

This may be a simple fix but here it goes.

I'm using essentials alongside mchatsuite and i'm wondering how i would get the auto-afk function through mchat to work OVER essentials. It seems like the essentials auto-afk takes over mchat and the mchat auto-ark doesn't work. The /afk command does however work through mchat and not essentials. Not quite sure i understand that.

If i go afk it registers with mchat and after a period of time the essentials auto-afk kicks in even though i'm already afk. I want to prevent that from happening and use all afk commands through mchat instead of essentials. Any help with this would be appreciated.

Note to other readers: mChatSuite (at least the Development version) works fine, it may throw a error or two, but everything works fine except channels which is still a work in progress so do not use it.

@codydbgt

Because of people like you I had to edit the overview (Main) page to include a message telling everyone to make a ticket not comment with BUGS/ISSUES/IDEAS. You as supposed to make a ticket instead. Why do you think there is a ticket area?

Also for the love of god. PLEASE use PASTEBIN.COM We don't need to have half a page filled with a dang error most people don't need or want to read.

On that note, if you read tickets are you will see there has been a ticket on this and it is in the works. For me I don't see either error that much. Due note that I have the latest Development version of mChatSuite and the latest Vault as well.

Ticket I am talking about is here
