Chat Color Changing Plugin

Hello.

I have seen some servers use this plugin, but have not found it.

It changes your chat color with the simple command /color

For example you may do /color &a, and they now chat in that color, or they can change it and do /color &c, and they now chat in that color.

If someone knows of this plugin, please post a link or download to it below.

Details if someone is willing to code one like it:


Name: ChatColor
Commands:
/color (displays the message: Usage: /color <color code> )
/color <color code> : changes the color the players chat shows in to that color, so they can do /color &a and chat in light green until they change it.
/color reset : resets their chat color to &f, white.
/color <player> <color>: Changes the chat color of the specified player to the specified color code. Example: /color notch &a will make 'notch' chat in light green.

Permissions:

chatcolor.change - allows the user to change their chat color. defaultp
chatcolor.reset - allows the user to reset their chat color. default: op
chatcolor.others - allows the player to change other players chat color. default: op

Thank you to anyone who could find a plugin similar to this or generously code one!

 

MacDev Done! <Edit by Moderator: Redacted mediafire url>
EDIT:
The permissions are chatcolor.change and chatcolor.others! To reset the chatcolor you just do /color &r Enjoy! - Jack

Thank you so much for taking your time to make this! It works great!

 

MacDev This can now be found here!

I took a look at the source and I saw that it doesn't save the player's chat color. Perhaps MacDev would like something like that?

 

The Gaming Grunts Works the same. Apparently there is no way to actually make a ChatColor variable from a string even with translating alternate color codes. It still works none the less...

 

TheWolfBadger
You could do something like this if you wanted:

Code:java

getConfig().set("some.path", "&4");

Depends on how you want to do it. You could do it with MySQL if you wanted, for example

PHP:

UPDATE sometable SET color='&4' WHERE player='someplayer';

 

timtower How would you store it in a HashMap though?

 

timtower So how do you get ChatColor from a string? There is no method for it.

 

timtower I'll try that out. Tell you how it goes.

timtower The Gaming Grunts MacDev Ahh fixed! More efficient now!

KenoVincent Try <Edit by Moderator: Redacted mediafire url>

 

TheWolfBadger currently it does'nt creat errors anymore but when I tried to chat still no colors and the "&" are presented with the chat..

 

TheWolfBadger

Code:

e.setMessage((String)this.cManager.get(p.getUniqueId()) + "" + e.getMessage());

here you are just appending the message to the String you get from your map.
you should do:

Code:

e.setMessage(ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&',(String)this.cManager.get(p.getUniqueId()) + "" + e.getMessage()));

Also you are still not saving anything to the config.

EDIT: Actually this is a bad idea, as it will allow players to use color codes within their messages, which is not what was wanted I think...

 

CGA1123 Oh actually it's bc I tried to change the hashmap to store color codes and it didn't work so I reverted, but I forgot to revert that code back to it's original... Sorry KenoVincent. I will fix when I am on my computer though !
