Ever wanted to get someone’s attention, but the only way was to punch them?
Excuse Me adds a simple way to tap another player on the shoulder instead!
① How to use
Right-click another player with an empty hand.
- The other player hears a notification sound.
- A banner appears telling them who tapped their shoulder.
- No damage or knockback!
- There’s a short cooldown to prevent accidental spam.
② Customization
You can customize:
- Ringtone
- Notification volume
- Notification pitch
- Banner position
- Banner size
You can also test your current notification settings without needing another player.
③ Mute & Ban
Don’t want to be disturbed?
- Mute shoulder-tap notifications whenever you want.
- Mute can also be toggled with a keybind.
- Ban individual players from sending you shoulder-tap notifications.
