About mmoChat

mmoChat provides simple channel handling for players. Channels are controlled via filters - this means that you can easily create new channel types by combining filters such as Local + Party etc.

The mmoMinecraft suite is a collection of plugins that together attempt to create a more mmorpg-like experience in Minecraft.

Dependencies

• mmoCore - Required by all mmoMinecraft plugins.
• SpoutPlugin - Allows a small tab showing the current channel above the text input (optional).

Extensions

• mmoParty - Adds a "Party" filter and adds the /party channel (use command:false).
• mmoChatPirate - Adds a "Pirate" filter which makes you talk like a pirate.
• mmoChatTitle - Adds a permissions based "Title" filter.

Features

• Easy to create new channels.
• Simple API for creating new channel filters.
• Players select default channel simply by using the channel chat command without any args.
• Multiple aliases for every channel.
• Automatically add a command for each channel created (optional).
• Show a tab above the text bar showing the current channel (requires Spout).

Commands

• /channel <name> - Change the channel you are speaking on.
• /channel <name> [text] - Send text to the named channel.
• /<channel> - Change the channel you are speaking on (if it has a channel command).
• /<channel> [text] - Send text to the named channel (if it has a channel command).
• /me [text] - Send text as an emote rather than a message (slightly different formatting).
