Chat-Ping
by _blackdev_
Chat-Ping notifies a player with an on-screen toast whenever their Minecraft username appears in chat, so a mention in a busy multiplayer conversation is not missed.
What it does
Chat-Ping watches incoming chat lines and triggers a notification when the player's name is written in them. The alert is a customizable in-game toast, and the mod lets the player set different colors and styles for ping notifications. The mod also works in the background without affecting gameplay performance, which keeps it lightweight.
The mod is aimed at players who follow conversations on multiplayer servers and in busy worlds, where a direct message can scroll past unnoticed. It is compatible with multiplayer servers and is a client-side only mod, so servers do not need to install anything. Files target Minecraft 1.21 on Fabric, and the mod is listed under the Optimization category with Game mechanics and Utility as secondary categories.
Chat-Ping is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source. The author maintains a public issue tracker for reports, and the first release, v1, was published on 2024-09-22 with the same date as the last update.
