BetterChat

Adds configurable features to the chat system.

• Configure how long the window shows when a new message is received.
• Optionally keep the chat window visible at all times.
• Remove the force caps from shouts and force lower case from whispers.
• Pressing the slash key (`/`) will open the chat window and start a message.
• Option to not see map pings when players shout.
• Switch so that the chat default is shout (use `/say` to not shout).
• Configure talk and whisper distances.
• Able to interact with UI that is behind the chat window (click-through).

Most everything listed is configurable. Run the game once with the mod enabled to generate the config. See config for details on what each option does.

This is primarily a client side mod. It may also be installed on a server to sync configurations. A server may optionally require that clients have the mod installed via the ConditionalConfigSync.ModRequirements.cfg file in the ConditionalConfigSync config directory.

Some configuration options can be enforced by a server running ConditionalConfigSync. See included ConfigSync_Readme.txt file for more information.
