receive chat message - MoSadie/EffectMC GitHub Wiki

Description

Display a message in the chat screen, as if a player sent a message. This message is displayed in a similar fashion to the /tellraw command in that no player is visibly attached to the message.

Note for 1.19 and up: The received message will show up as a 'system' message and will have a grey mark next to it.

Configuration Options

  • Title (optional): An optional title to display on the key. Customize location and font using the T icon to the right of the text box.
  • Minecraft IP (required): The address that the EffectMC mod is running on. (Example: http://localhost:3000)
  • Message: The message to show in chat.
