zChat

Table of Contents

zChat is a very simple chat manager for Bukkit. It was optimized to work with zPermission and requires Vault (other permissions plugins which uses Vault should also work, I only tested the plugin with bPermissions).

List of features:

color chat
local chat (optional)
prefix/suffix support
Factions support

zChat was originally forked of the bChatManager which was originally forked off the PEX ChatManager. :)

Installation

Make sure you have following plugins installed and configured:

Vault
Vault-supported permissions system (there is a list on the Vault page)

Put the zChat.jar into the plugins folder and the plugin will generate a config folder.

Config


formats:
 
    message-format: '[%world] %prefix %player: &f%message'

    local-message-format: '[LOCAL] %prefix %player: &f%message'

toggles:

    ranged-mode: false

    factions-support: false

other:

    chat-range: 100.0

message-format - Format of a chat message when ranged mode is disabled or a global message format if ranged mode is enabled
local-message-format - Explains itself :)
ranged-mode - Disable or enable local chat
factions-support - Disable or enable factions support. Be sure to disable that, if you don't have Factions plugin, otherwise you will get errors
chat-range - Local chat radius

Available placeholders: %world, %prefix, %suffix, %player, %message, %displayname, %faction
Place "!" before your message to write in to the global chat.

Permissions

zchat.spy - Allowes you to see all local and global messages. Useful for moderators.
zchat.color - Allowes you to use color codes in the chat

So um, apart from adding factions support and renaming everything, what exactly did you do?

There's no zPermissions "optimisation" as far as I can see, and you've even left a huge chunk of my code commented out https://github.com/alexanto/zChat/blob/master/src/ru/gksu/mc/zChat/zChatListener.java#L50

I'm not mad, just curious to see your reasoning behind this.

Line 107 in zChat.java

String suffix = chat.getPlayerPrefix(player);

Edit: Also, in a plugin like this,

/zchat reload

would be very useful

%suffix seems to be being read wrong as %prefix.

I have zPermissions, zChat, and Factions.

Hmm when using %suffix on PEX, it repeats the %prefix. Any thoughts?

Can you please add Towny compatibility? This would be awesome for my towny server. At the moment if i add the towny prefixes it just puts them normal out not converted into values :(

Hey, awesome plugin, but is it possible to add more config options, like bChatManager has?

I'm mostly interested in the "message-format" and "personal-message-format"

Also, the ability to add channels would be nice as well, thanks!
