PlexonChats
A powerful, modern, and highly configurable chat management plugin for Paper servers.
- Designed to be lightweight and feature-rich, it offers everything from proximity-based local chat to interactive item showcasing, private messaging, and customizable player mentions—all fully tailored using modern MiniMessage formatting.
✨ Key Features
Global & Local Chat Channels: Seamlessly manage proximity-based Local chat (with configurable block radiuses) and a server-wide Global channel. Quick Chat Shortcuts: Don't want to switch channels? Players can use customizable prefix shortcuts (like ! for Global) or quick commands (/g, /l) to send messages instantly.
Modern Formatting: Full support for Advntr MiniMessage formatting (Gradients, Hex colors, Click events, Hover texts) without the hassle of legacy color codes!
Smart Player Mentions: Grab a player's attention instantly! Type @playername to trigger customizable action-bar notifications and sound alerts for that player.
Interactive Chat Items ([item] / @hand): Allow players to show off their loot! Typing [item] or @hand in chat will display their held item, complete with interactive hover tooltips showing the item's precise lore and enchantments.
Private Messaging System: Built-in direct messaging (/msg, /tell, /w) with a quick /reply command for fluid conversations. Interactive GUI: Let players manage their active chat channels effortlessly with a customizable in-game GUI (/chat gui).
Announcements: Broadcast important notices to your entire server with the /announce command. Seamless Integrations: Optional out-of-the-box hooks for PlaceholderAPI and Vault to display ranks, prefixes, and custom placeholders directly in the chat!
