BetterChat

I am not at all sure if this is an error or something I haven't done with formatting, but the names I make for groups through better chat do not appear when someone types. They are recognized through betterchat by checking in game with /chat group list. They are also listed in the oxide.groups.data file under the data folder as well. They don't show up, at least for me, when typing. I have recently recreated my server and I am not opening it to friends and such until complete, so I haven't had someone else test it with me yet. Is anyone else having this problem? There's no error message to show. My config is attached. I did use the BetterChat Group Manager to make the config as well. Any ideas?

Oh, I should mention that I have Factions also, but I unload that and it still doesn't work... So...

 

You are using the old version of betterchat groups.json you need to delete that file and let it make a new one so you can the correct format for that file

 

I did. Like I said, I have completely remade my server recently, from scratch. So, it is the updated format. I even used the Better Chat Group manager that is linked in the overview...

 

I can tell you what you have there is wrong every part of it you also dont have a default group or admin
This is my default group and if you compare it against any of your groups you will see how wrong your file is

Code:

"GroupName": "default",
    "Priority": 25,
    "Title": {
      "Text": "[Player]",
      "Color": "#55aaff",
      "Size": 15,
      "Hidden": false,
      "HiddenIfNotPrimary": true
    },
    "Username": {
      "Color": "#DCFF66",
      "Size": 15
    },
    "Message": {
      "Color": "white",
      "Size": 15
    },
    "Format": {
      "Chat": "{Title} {Username}: {Message}",
      "Console": "{Title} {Username}: {Message}"
    }
  },
  {

 

Hello,

I have just gotten Oxide on my 7 Days to Die server. Of course, 7DtD has very few plugins so I went to Universal plugins for this one, which our Rust servers all use.

It took a bit of work to set up, and now I find you cant use any oxide commands in the console, nor do the chat commands for this work.
I really want to use this, however even with everything set up fine, I cant seem to be able to use any commands, they just don't exist to the server. It knows the plugin is there, everyone has [Player], and its the blue color that is the default, but nothing else works. I have so far spent a good 4 hours working to get Oxide to work on this, and am disappointed that I can't get this set up.

Any help would be great, and it also would be great if more support for 7DtD was given by developers. I understand that developers are very busy as is, but I feel that a game that is constantly growing should be given support more to help the game's servers grow, as the plugins are all older and there are so few

Okay then, can you explain to me why everything about my file is wrong when I used the tool to make the file that the plugin creator posted for everyone to use? I didn't just make the file by hand, I used a tool that is supposed to create it for me. I don't at all understand why it won't work.

I should also mention that I changed the name of my admin group and default group to what I have it as in my betterchat config folder, so they do match. I'll do it your way and see if it works regardless.

EDIT: Oddly enough, my server restarted overnight and now it works just fine. Must have just needed a restart. I didn't change a thing in my config to make it work.

 

The editor is not supporting the latest version btw, as said in red on the overview.

 

I thought the Group Manager linked below the red text was a fix for the fact it wasn't working. Might be a good idea to not link the Group Manager for now while it isn't working? Not trying to sound snappy, but someone else could misread that as I did and assume the same.

However, it DID work for me. Nothing in my config needed to change in order for it to work. The server just needed a restart and it worked.

 

How to disable auto assigning group to admin group?

 

I think to solve that, you need to make the priority of the admin group be 0 and the one you want defaults to go into should be 1 or higher. Also, make the group name of the group you want all your normal and new members to go into be like this....

"GroupName": "default", <<<< Leave this as "default" or whatever group you mean to attach it to, this does not show on your server in chat, the entry in the "Text" field below does show in chat
"Priority": 1, <<< Make this be 1 or higher, If multiple groups, make this group be the lowest of your groups (excluding 0, 0 is ALWAYS for admins)
"Title": {
"Text": "[your default/normal group name nere]", <<<< This will show in chat, but the "GroupName" above is how it links to your group. This field renames your "default" group to show as this.
"Color": "Gray",
"Size": 15,
"Hidden": false,
"HiddenIfNotPrimary": true
},
"Username": {
"Color": "#55aaff",
"Size": 15
},
"Message": {
"Color": "white",
"Size": 15
},
"Format": {
"Chat": "{Title} {Username}: {Message}",
"Console": "{Title} {Username}: {Message}"
}

 

How would i setup a Ultimate Vip tag for the front of peoples names so when they donate they get the Title Ultimate VIP?

 

Is there a way to make it possible to show the clan tags from Rust:IO clan systems and the BetterChat tags at the same time ?

 

that is also my problem. how can i fix the clan tags ?

 

Me to, I have this problem,

 

Me to, Clan Tags dont show up

 

Ok for clan tag download plugin V4.2.12

 

Hiya.

I have installed the BetterChat plugin and it work perfectly. However when I try setting the title of one of my groups "community_manager" to "[Community Manager]" by using /chat group set "community_manager" Title "[Community Manager]" it just prints all the fields in the chat and doesn't change the title. PLease could anyone help me

 

I'd suggest going into the config/data file to change it. I've always found that works for me rather than using in game commands.

 

I have done this but I seems to wipe all the permissions and users from that group when I do?

 

Can we please have /ignore added back to this?
