📋 Overview

Chat Tools is a highly customizable Minecraft client mod that supports various features, allowing them to interoperate through commands and more.

📖 Glossary and Technical Details

  • Session Identifier (Chat Tools-specific term) is a string that, in single-player mode, corresponds to the current save name, and in multiplayer mode, corresponds to the server address. Related Regular Expressions use the matches() method for matching.
  • Pattern (General term) refers to the Regular Expression pattern. Chat Tools uses the MULTILINE mode for Regular Expressions and matches them using the find() method.
  • Chat Tools maintains multi versions by using macro replacement. The same version of Chat Tools may exhibit slight differences between Minecraft versions.
  • When processing player messages, Chat Tools removes color codes (§.).
  • By enabling Advanced Tooltips (F3+H), you can hover over configuration items on the configuration page to view their keys, default values, and other details.

🛠️ Commands

  • /chattools on - Enable the mod.
  • /chattools off - Disable the mod.
  • /chattools opengui - Open the configuration page.
  • /chattools download - Download addons.
  • /chattools regex_checker <pattern> [<test_content>] - Without test content: check if the pattern is a valid regex. With test content: validate the pattern and test if it matches the content.
  • /chattools send_to_client text <text_JSON_component> - Send specific text to the client chat bar.
  • /chattools send_to_client actionbar <text_JSON_component> - Display specific text on the client actionbar.
  • /chattools config openfile - Open the configuration file (editing requires a game restart to apply changes).

  • /chattools config set <key> <value> [<save>] - Set the value of a specific configuration key. If save is set to true, the changes will also be saved to the file.

Chat Keybindings

Use hotkeys for frequently used commands:

  • Trigger Last Command Hotkey\ Press a set hotkey to repeat the previous command.\ For example: \ While playing a Parkour map, do F3+C and activate it for a time, then you can quickly go back to the recorded point location every time you press the hotkey.
