Just today, We added [and verdana perfected] A new plugin that should spice up the Serverside Roleplay environment.
Refer to the Rp rules and guidelines sheet for the bits and bobs of the new plugin. ![]()
The commands are listed in the sheet under "Server Roleplay Commands"
Feel free to use this thread as discussion for the new plugin, and to ask questions as well.
Have fun, and Happy Roleplaying!

This is a plugin we've wanted for ages but I finally got around to writing yesterday. Unlike most nickname systems, this one sets your nickname only in the roleplay chat channels (so hopefully it won't interfere with anyone who doesn't want to roleplay). I hope you have fun with it.

In a further attempt to improve Roleplay on the server, We've added the /ooc command.
This command is for use with OOC chat [out of character]
To use this, simply, while in any RP channel, do /ooc [message without brackets]
The command will slightly change the color of the chat to grey, making it easy to differentiate between OOC and IC chats.
basically, this command eliminates the need to add [ ] { } ( ) around your messages for OOC chat.
Have fun!

We're still testing this and learning what people want out of it. Please have a go at using /ooc and see if it does what you want. I also customised /me for RP channels to use your nickname, so you can play with that too if you want (I'm officially relaxing the rules about using /me in RP while we can test this). If it sucks we'll remove it.

Why not change it to full grey so you gotta look at the message hard if you want to see OOC?
That way the white text is normal rping
If you already tried this, it broke

It was gray before, but it was changed because it was really hard to tell the difference between ooc and /me. It's italicized, so it's still a bit different from the regular text. Also, the dark blue on the names helps separate them.
Not sure if anybody's been playing around with the colors or not since then, but a lot of the other colors seemed a little out there for ooc. More eye catching than the white and gray, at least. The dark gray itself was more of a pain to try and read than anything else, so a lot of people might just end up ignoring the ooc and miss something. Could go either way, though.

I added a new command /it
This is for doing "world" emotes
so you can do:
/it In the distance, an owl hoots.
and in chat you'll see:
[rp] <❤MickyNine> [world action]
[rp] * In the distance, an owl hoots.
I also added a poll to the topic post, let us know what you think of the use of emotes please!

Cool! I assume there's a way for the admins to see who used the command in the chat logs in case it's abused and something needs to be reported? In-game admins should be able to still see the command as well in any case in case it creates a problem?

The ooc line is added automatically, directly before the action, every time /it is used. So it is never anonymous.

I should add, we are very much open to discussing and changing any of the formatting, if anyone comes up with a better idea how to do it than we are at the moment.
We did try having ooc chat in grey, but it blended in with /me
I kind of don't like how /it is right now, because the ooc line before it is a bit jarring. Aolo suggested we could make it like this:
[rp4] * World event would supposedly look like this then? ~Aoloebio
(so it is like you are "signing" a world event). But I'm open to other suggestions too.

I kinda agree with Aolo's idea there. I can see where it would get a bit spammy to have it pop out two lines each time. What does it do if you use tabby chat and go over the one-line limit? Will it spit out four lines or just the first ooc one with the name and two world events? I haven't tried it myself, been too busy the past couple days.

With tabby chat, wouldn't you get a tab for the RP one for the OCC and one for the World Event?

Someone try it and let us know here please.
#18
Posted 10 February 2014 - 08:27 PM
Apparently not due to the prefix RP before them, making it all in one tab
#19
Posted 10 February 2014 - 08:28 PM
The results.
[rp4] <kibamoon> [world action] [rp4] *So this is what it will look like if someone is using TabbyChat and writes a long post, sending [rp4] <kibamoon> [world action] [rp4] * the input over the limit.
To tudexd, it sent all of it to the rp4 tab, ooc and all.

Thanks running but I tested that myself, good job on getting the proof though!
