    Sure, but you'd need to write the website portion that accepts it as well.

    I know you are, I'm just saying it would need more than just a plugin. ;)

    Well, you likely will have to do some work to make your website portion useful.

    I started porting my legacy WebChat plugin a while ago but never finished or tested it. If anyone is interested he can pick it up on my github.

    I presume this is potentially possible due to the great work on the rust.io stuff with the live map.

    Can a plugin be made that outputs the server chat so that we can display it on the front page of our website, like a little chat box the auto updates?

    Output to what? Rust already has a Log.Chat.txt file you could use.

    To upload chat, you can use the OnPlayerChat hook with web requests to your web server. I would suggest creating a chat buffer so you're only doing a web request every 5-10 messages otherwise you'll consume your bandwidth on both sides.

    [DOUBLEPOST=1447806398][/DOUBLEPOST]
    And do it so it wont lag or crash like u said and how much cpu and memory would it take?

    You mean, can I write the code for you?

    No, you have everything you need to do it in those links. Maybe some other brave soul will try their hand at this one.

    could you not just embed the page into your webpage, that would be easy right?
