Roleplay chat

Chat lines only reach players standing inside the range that applies to their message type, and each type picks its own range; a leading prefix character or a slash command decides which type is sent. Speak, Whisper, Shout, Action, OOC and Global OOC each have their own range. Colors for ranges and prefix characters can be changed in the configuration.

On first connection a player is given a unique six-digit hex code and shown a screen to choose an RP name. The introduction screen cannot be skipped: Escape brings up the pause menu instead, and the same screen comes back once the player is back in the world. An RP name can be changed later with the rpname command. Other players see a gray italic label below the RP name, while the hex code stays hidden until they are introduced to someone. A player can reveal their identity to a specific player, and the introduction is permanently recorded, then restored automatically after reconnecting.

The mod is aimed at Minecraft Fabric roleplay servers and works with vanilla commands such as kick, ban, op, tp, give, kill and damage type. Installation needs Fabric API and the mod runs on the server only, so players join without installing anything. Files are published for Fabric for 1.21.1, 1.21.6, 1.21.8 and 1.21.11, with 2.1.2+1.21.8 for 1.21.8 as the latest file.
