Don't ping me

by Creerio

Don't ping me is a small Fabric and Quilt client mod that reacts when a player's username is typed in chat.

FabricQuiltClient-side onlyThe UnlicenseOpen source1.20 – 1.20.4

What it does

When another player writes the local player's name in chat, the game reacts with a short alert, so mentions are easier to notice in busy conversations. The mod is client-side only, so the server and other players do not need it. Fabric API is required on Fabric, and Quilt builds use the Quilt Standard Libraries instead.

Key features

  1. Mention detection

    Chat messages that contain the local player's name are checked, and a matching message triggers the mod's reaction.

  2. Name alert

    A mention makes the game respond, so a player can spot being addressed without reading every line.

  3. Open source

    The source code is public and released into the public domain under The Unlicense, so it can be reused freely.
