Latest release (for Vintage Story 1.20.12, 1.21.0 and 1.21.1, outdated):
nogenchat-1.2.0.zip  1-click install

NoGenChat is my very first fully coded Vintage Story mod that will hopefully be useful for other server owners like me!

This mod disables the global general chat on your server to reduce noise and hopefully promote more RP! The general chat will simply not show or send messages when this mod is enabled.

This does not disable player groups so you can still send messages through them.

 

It includes a config file where you can enable or disable the feature anytime. To make changes without restarting your server there’s a command that requires the user to have the controlserver permission called /nogenchatreload that reloads the config without needing a restart.

 

This mod uses official Vintage Story server events to block general chat so it should keep working well for the foreseeable future unless there are major changes to how Vintage Story handles chat channels & messages.

 

THIS MOD IS MEANT TO BE USED WITH A PROXIMITY CHAT MOD

 

Should be compatible with 1.21.x unless they changed how chat events function
