no-clearchat-on-reconfigure
by Brokkonaut
No-clearchat-on-reconfigure keeps the chat history visible when a client reconnects to a server that sends it into the configuration phase.
What it does
Switching between servers in a multi-server network can send the client back through the configuration phase, and vanilla clears the chat at that point. This mod stops that clear, so messages from before the reconfiguration remain readable and players can follow a conversation across the switch. It is a Fabric mod for 1.20.2 – 1.20.4 and runs on the client only, so the server does not need it. The code is open source under the MIT License.
Key features
Chat kept through reconfiguration
Chat messages stay on screen when the client enters the configuration phase, so the earlier lines remain visible.
Conversation context preserved
Players moving between linked servers keep the conversation they had before the switch in view.
Earlier lines stay readable
Messages sent before a reconfiguration are not wiped, so players can scroll back through them after reconnecting.
Compatibility

What the author says
This is also relevant on multi server networks where switching between server causes the client to enter this configuration phase and so the chat is also cleared. As is it often important to be able to follow conversations from before the reconfiguration this chat clear might be unwanted.
