What it does

Normal chat messages reach only players standing within a radius of 40 blocks of the sender, so nearby players hear each other while distant players do not. A shout command sends a message to every player on the server regardless of distance, which suits announcements such as a meeting point or a warning. Radius Chat is a server-side only mod that requires Fabric API, and it is published for Fabric across 12 release versions, 1.21 – 1.21.11, under All rights reserved, with a Paper build also available.

Key features

  1. Proximity-limited chat

    Regular messages are delivered only to players within 40 blocks of the sender.

  2. Global shout command

    A shout command delivers a message to every player, so a sender can announce something without walking to each player.

  3. No need to find players first

    A sender can reach the whole server directly, without locating the people they want to tell.
