In-Game Chat

We use HeroChat for our chat system. There are several in-game chat channels. Here are the commands to use them. Square brackets denote required parameters, while parentheses denote optional parameters. The [channel] parameter can be either a channel’s full name or nickname and is not case sensitive.

Available Channels:

• Global (‘G’): The channel for everything & everyone, color: White
• Regional (‘R’): Can be read only by people less than 128 blocks away; color: Dark Aqua
• Architects (‘A’): Can be joined/read only by Architects and above; color: Green
• Master (‘M’): Can be joined/read only by Masters and above; color: Rose
• Designer (‘D’): Can be joined/read only by Designers and above; color: Blue
• Elder (‘E’): Can be joined/read only by Elders; color: Gold
• Trading (‘T’): For trading requests & offers; color: Aqua
• Off Topic (‘O’): For all non-minecraft chat; color: Yellow
• Hunger (‘H’): For chat during hunger games. Works only in the hunger game world; color: Aqua
• Announcements (‘U’): For all server announcements. You cannot leave or talk here. Only admin stuff that everyone has to know.
• Notifications (‘N’): For less critical server announcements. You can leave this channel, but you cannot talk in this channel. Color: Yellow

When you see people chat in-game, you will see something like this:

Each part tells you something:

• Daiyamondo The color of this user’s name tells you their user level (see below).
• +– The presence of + after a user’s name tells you they have donated money to the server.
• (empire) The name of the world where this player is currently located, in this case, Empire.
• Hi. Daiyamondo is saying “Hi.” to someone. Perhaps it’s you! You can also the white color of the “Hi” which tells you it’s in the general channel.
