WebChat

WebChat is a super lightweight client-side mod that bridges your in-game chat directly to a separate web browser. I Initially made this as a way to play on my couch with a controller without typing out my messages slowly on some on-screen keyboard.

Note: There are another couple of mods that do webchat that have even more features- check Web Chat out https://modrinth.com/mod/web-chat and also check out https://modrinth.com/plugin/kokoto-webchat if you need this mod to do more.

How to Use

Open the Web Interface: Open a web browser on your computer and go to localhost:8080 (by default) to connect! Using a seprate device? Find your local ip (just type ipconfig in cmd prompt), and connect via yourlocalip:8080 Or you can port forward and access the chat via another network with your public IP.

Authenticate with Passcode: When passcode protection is enabled, visiting the web page will prompt you to enter a 6-digit numeric password before you can view or send messages. You can view your current session code in-game at any time.

Send Messages and Commands: Type messages into the browser input box to send them directly to the in-game chat, or start your text with a slash (/) to execute in-game commands remotely. This works in both singleplayer and multiplayer!

Adjust Settings In-Game: Use the /webchat commands in-game to configure or (Mod Menu Required) change the settings via the Mod Menu settings.
