Bukkit

What it does:
This plugin will add six channels, an emote feature, and a custom chat name. The channels are RP, DEV, LOOC, OOC, Shout, and Whisper.
Emotes:
Emoting can be accessed by typing a * infront of your text in the RP channel or by typing /i.
Custom Names:
The config file will contain the custom names that will only show up in chat (this is on purpose because if it changed tab it would break scoreboard teams which can add prefixes in 1.8). The config file will be a list of players, on the left side of the colon ':' you should put all usernames of those who are on your server, on the left side put there rp name.(This should be done for every player or else it will make their name 'null').
Example,
The_Epic Potato: RolePlayName
Commands:
/rp [your message],
/dev [your message],
/shout [your message], etc.
BUT you can also just type in
/rp,
/dev,
or /shout
to focus in that channel and not have to type commands anymore.
Channels, and how they work:
The RP channel is set to announce 30 blocks away from the sender, shout 60, whisper 5, looc 40, ooc and dev can only announce to other players that are in dev or ooc. It comes with an eye pleasing color theme that looks professional. Note that when you join any channel, you are removed from all other channels, so only one can be focused on.
Notice:
BELIEVED TO ONLY WORK WITH JAVA 1.8
SUMMARY:
This plugin adds custom chat channels to make it easier for rp server's players to communicate with ranged chat, it also adds custom nick names that only appear in chat.
Automatic features:
If you start your rp sentence with an quotation it will end it with an quotation, please dont type the ending quotation :P ill add more features to counteract if someone does type it and there ends up being two quotations at the end.
If you start an emote with an apostrophe it will close the gap between your name and the apostrophe.
