ChatFlex
by MrLeonardos
ChatFlex lets server owners set up several chat channels, each with its own name, message format, range and permissions, on NeoForge servers.
What it does
Each channel is defined with a unique identifier, a display name, a customizable message format, and a prefix character that players type to send into it. A channel can be limited by distance in blocks, or set to global so every player on the server receives its messages. Cooldowns in seconds control how often a player may post in a channel, and a channel can be made the default for new messages.
Access is controlled per channel through read and write permission levels. When LuckPerms is installed, those checks use its permission nodes and OP-level settings; without LuckPerms, the mod still runs and falls back to its own permission handling. The configuration covers the global and local channels as well as any custom channels a server owner adds, so a server can split public talk, local talk and staff talk.
The mod is server-side only, so players join without installing anything. It targets NeoForge for 1.21 – 1.21.4, with the latest file 1.0.0 for 1.21.4, released 2024-12-21. It is not open source and is released under All rights reserved.
Key features
Custom chat channels
Server owners define several channels, each with its own identifier, display name and message format.
Distance-limited channels
A channel can be restricted to a radius in blocks, so nearby players hear each other while global channels reach everyone.
Per-channel permissions
Read and write permissions are set separately for each channel, and LuckPerms OP-level checks can be used when it is installed.
Message cooldowns
A channel can require players to wait a set number of seconds between messages, which slows spam in busy channels.
