TabChannels

Table of Contents

channel switch

Description

Inspired by the Sponge community. This is a new idea of using the chat. The chat is splitted into channels. You can switch the channels easily by just clicking on the channel name at the bottom of the chat window. You can still receive chat messages. If a new message was sent and you are in a different channel you get notification and could see the number of unread messages next to the channel name.

Moreover you don't need to invoke a special command in order to write in a channel. If you switch to channel, you can start writing your message. The message will be sent to your current viewing channel.

Features

Private chats
A global channel
Chat history for newly joining players
Easy to use. Just click at the bottom on the channel name
Displays unread messages as a number next to the channel name

Commands

/switch <channel> - Switches between channels
/private <playername> - Starts a private chat

Permissions

tabchannels.command.private - Starts a private chat
tabchannels.command.switch - Switches between channels

Hello! I've tried TabChannels, which seems really interesting, but nothing special is happening (no viewable tabs). Looking at my server logs, I see there's an error (Could not pass event AsyncPlayerChatEvent to TabChannels) when a player is saying something in the chat.

Any idea?

That would be good, being able to remove separate messages.

Could you maybe add in a clearchat feature, so all old messages to new players are gone. And possibly A player message clearance, so you are able to remove a certain players message(s).

Sadly Bukkit's API doesn't provide a way to catch up these messages, but I found a solution to workaround it. I'll fix it.

I checked the source code of TownyChat. There shouldn't be any issues.
