A global chat plugin for the Velocity Minecraft proxy

I was disappointed with the current options so I made my own plugin. I hope its useful for others.

Features

• Global chat: your player's voice is echoed across your whole velocity network
• Log to console: the chat can be sent to your console (configurable, can be disabled)
• Configurable format: chat format can be changed or formatted using MiniMessage tags (or translated!)
• Global join/leave messages: let your whole network know when a player joins or leaves the velocity proxy (goes well with HidePlayerJoinQuit or SilentJoin)
• Server switch messages

Installation

Download the jar from GitHub releases (or compile your own) and drop it into your velocity's plugins folder. Restart the server to load a new plugin.

Configuration

See chat/config.toml in your server's plugins folder. You can reload the proxy for settings to take effect.

Messages support MiniMessage tags, read this documentation for more info.

Name

I'm looking for a new plugin name, I don't really like "chat".

Future fancy features

I would like to implement these features at some point:

• Welcome messages (MOTD?)
• Some command to clear chat
• Chat disabling (restricting the whole chat)
• Filter words from chat
• More templating placeholders (LP prefixes/suffixes, current server, date, etc)
