Chat Handler [Unmaintained]

Mayhaps I'm overlooking it, but is there a way to change the actually message color? The white is to hard to see in the desert/snow.

 

Im almost done with version 3 of chathandler which will be much more customizeable and offer a few new features which includes changing text colors.
Im currently in testing phase and hopefully be able to release it later today.

 

Domestos updated Chat Handler with a new update entry:

big update

 

thankss i read update notes and excited too much so i havent try but write a review in here thanks man you are a lifesaver

 

Awwwww yisssssss. Now we wait for clanforge to grab the update..... Hopefully sooner than later.

 

Hi, I just reloaded the plugin and im getting this error.

Code:

> oxide.reload chathandler

You need to delete your old config and let the plugin generate a new one. Its completely different form the old one..

 

ok, great thank you!

 

Hi, thanks for this new version, im having a little problem, i have set a VIP group, but i can't get text and name color to works, its using the Player colors, only the VIP prefix is working.

 

Yeah I need to implement a system to detect some sort of ranking that determines what text color is picked when someone is in more than one group.
For now you need to remove them from the player group.

 

Ok, if i remove them from this group it won't cause any problem?

 

They will probably be added back automaticly after a server restart but thats an Oxide bug.

 

It shouldn't. What he is saying is that a user is a part of both the "Player" and "VIP" group, and its pulling the colors from the "Player" group. Removing the person from the "Player" group should solve the issue.

EDIT: He beat me to it by mere seconds. Curse you @Domestos.

EDIT EDIT: After looking through the Rust:IO Clans plugin, there doesn't seem to be a way to change the chat color in the config. Is that something you could implement in a future update? Or would that have to be on their end?

 

Anyway to disable the group colors? I already have a plugin for that It types twice in chat with chat handler and betterchatname.

-----EDIT---
It didnt work disabling it in config! Please tell me how to remove it!

 

It wont work with both plugins installed. You have to choose one

 

@Domestos

one important bug i found is that chat handler changes all players avatar to oxide logo..
after i remove players avatar backs to normal their avatar pictures

another important one is chat history cant be scroll down or up with mouse wheel

 

I haven't come across peoples avatars changing, but not being able to scroll is kind of a pain. Not sure if thats to do with the plugin or Rust itself.

 

So, set parametr

Code:

self.Config.Settings.General.MaxCharsPerLine        = self.Config.Settings.General.MaxCharsPerLine or 1024

no works

 

Because 128 is max. Also dont edit the plugin itself, use the config file.

I'll look into the avatar thing and as wulf already said the chat scroll is a Rust bug.
