  1. Just the groups moved to another file to have a cleaner config file and the formatting changed a bit. Editing should work the same. Priority replaces Rank. Should work the same though. The lower the actual value, the higher the Priority.
     
  2. how does it work to add rank with title and color and stuff ? couse that is still an option right? how do i give someone a rank ? you dont use the Oxide permission anymore ? :p
    sorry for all retard questions. but for me, this is mindf*ck. im trying to understand it :)
    i guess i give "priority" to people, couse permission is gone
    And will Kits plugin work with this new thingy ?

    [DOUBLEPOST=1460495580][/DOUBLEPOST]
    I got the /reload plugin, would that work ?
     
  6. when i create a "group" in better chat and add someone in it. The person becomes "[Player] [Player] Name" why is that ?

    I named the group "Knight"
     
  7. LaserHydra, why it is necessary to add each player in your group separately? why do the job twice? why the plugin does not read players from file oxide.users.data? I use Timed Permissions plugin and the old version Better Chat all was well, and now we have each player separately to add to any group separately, and then delete it from this group separately. please answer
     
  8. you dont type reload plugin in game you type reload BetterChat in rcon
     
  9. i did it and it only shows player
     
  10. Did you upload the file I posted to oxide/data/Betterchat folder
     
  11. I'm pretty sure
     
  12. I created an group, but it does not change 6 parameters such as:

    "PlayerName": {
    "Size": 15,
    "Color": "white"
    },
    "Message": {
    "Size": 15,
    "Color": "red"
    },
    "Formatting": {
    "Console": "{Title} {Name}: {Message}",
    "Chat": "{Title} {Name}: {Message}"


    All data is taken from the group "player" what's the problem?

  16. Could it be possible to create an option to ignore mods/admins when using global mute?
     
  17. you can do so with the granting a new permit plugin removes old permission.
     
  18. BetterChat used oxide groups. BetterChat group "owner" is the oxide group "owner". Meaning if you already have an oxide group called owner, it will apply the betterchat group to all of them.

    Here the important informations once more as I am tired of telling everybody twice.

    Please ALWAYS read the update logs when updating. That is very important as you see. They contain important informations about what changed.

    Nothing changed about how BetterChat groups work. They use oxide groups. The BetterChat group "owner" will just be the oxide group "owner".
    BetterChat just uses permissions and adds that permission to the oxide group. You can only no longer customize the permissions of the groups. They are still there. For the "owner" group for example, it will be 'betterchat.group.owner'.

    The groups are no longer in the config file! They were moved to another file located at oxide/data/BetterChat/Groups.json to have a cleaner config file!


    You can edit that file just how you edited the config file before. Remember to reload the plugin after making changes.
    Only the formatting of the groups changed a bit and there is only one new setting called "HideIfNotHighestPriority"!

    HideIfNotHighestPriority hides the Title of that group if the groups does not have the highest Priority rank of the groups the player has.

    The Priority replaces the old Rank. Priority is used to order the groups and define which one is higher than the other one. It is not supposed to be set to 0 on every group! The smaller the actual value, the higher the Priority rank. For example:

    owner: 0
    admin: 1
    moderator: 2
    vip: 3
    player: 4


    I also created the BetterChat Group Manager to make editing grops even easier! It can be found on the overview!
    Simply load in the new Groups.json file, edit your groups and then save the file.

    Also the /chat command is there so you could also edit groups from your mobile per console. You can choose how you edit your groups. There are enough ways!

    • Groups.json file
      • Notepad++
      • BetterChat Group Manager
    • Command
     
  19. LaserHydra, Thanks for a complete answer, here is my fault, I don't fully understand the innovations, thanks for your plugin!!!
     
  20. just an idea..
    make this plugin with clan, pm, reply chats already included. do not use external plugins, like private messaging and sticky chat. also make customizable chat commands in config for these chats.
    in this case it will be really better chat and "must have" plugin =)
