Chester
Chester is a chat-bot that can be added to your server. Players can chat to him and from what us, the developers, have found, the responses can be hilarious!
Features
- Logs all messages by players.
- When Chester is mentioned, he replies with one of his saved messages.
- Works in any language (except in the beginning, where he stores 3 English sentences)
Usage
- Just chat like normal, and say 'Chester' when you want him to respond
Commands
None
Permissions
- Negate chester.trigger to stop Chester from logging them (eg. -chester.trigger)
- Negate chester.log to stop people from being logged by chester
How does Chester work?
Chester logs every single message said by players and collects them in a database. Whenever a player mentions his name, he responds with the most appropriate reply, as selected from his database.
If your Chester doesn't seem to make sense at first, this is normal, Chester will learn from chat and it may take some time for him to gather enough information in his brain.
Chester's responses can be highly intelligible and amusing :D!

API

Unfortunately this chat bot does a weird thing where it will respond before your message on the chat. This seems to happen about half the time. Maybe more. It can get a little confusing if multiple people use it.
@Darunia18
Done.

When you wonder why everyone else on Bukkit is in the Authors group but yourself....
Doesnt seem to be working as Chester is only able to say one thing, "Can I get some coffee?"
@gomeow
I never thought I'd see another official update to this plugin! Would you be able to update the Github repo with the new code? I've been working to add some of my own code to prevent Chester from reading and responding to players who are muted or in party chat in MCMMO. I want to be sure that my codebase would be up-to-date with yours. Thanks!
@roygerbil
Should be available in the next few days.
thanks so much!
only minor issue I seem to have found with the update (while using spigot 10.2) is that the bot responds before the player's message in the chatbox but other than that, works great
Can anyone get this working on 1.10? This was my favorite plugin. It's been pretty rock solid on surviving updates until around 1.9.
@ThisUsernameIsMine
Very late reply, but yeah if your still interested in my version of chester which takes stuff from 4chan then I'd be happy to upload it
25KiB plugin requires 35 coders? Does chester also hack into the N.S.A. for me?
It's not util
@pokekart2014
no it isn't, i tried to program a plugin like this but i couldn't because it was too hard to program something that can make connections between things in different players's sentences and reply accordingly. And also, why would it take time to learn before it started working properly, if it was simply sending the player a random message this would be pointless.
nvm its working, however it literally copys w.e we say o.O thought you could make a list of responses rather then having him Register EVERYTHING which can be a pain.. XD
When i write "chester" it just sayd <'chester'> no reply no nothing..?
@pokekart2014
I am guessing they all added random chat messages to it. And like half of them are prominent java plugin devs and even retired bukkit staff.
No Offence,
but You have a LOOONG list of authors, who made this plugin.
Isn't this plugin basically;
Checking if someone wrote something in chat.
Get Player.
Get Message.
If Message is "Chester", then send a random message to "Player".
If Message is not "Chester", then ignore.
????
Why would you need like 50 authors?
True, it might be easier with more people, but I really think that list is too long.
@CoolComixs
For me it still works (using Chester 2.3.1 jenkins build #11 and latest compiled Spigot)
Will this work in a 1.8 server? Or is it too outdated?

I would like to test your incarnation of Chester (does it have any settings or commands?)
