Hi everyone,

 

I have noticed that some people have been having trouble with sending chat messages. These are the methods I use, they are pretty simple

 

SERVER SIDE ONLY - works both on integrated and dedicated server

String message = EnumChatFormatting.RED + "CUSTOM MESSAGE";
sendMessageToPlayer(player,message);

public void sendMessageToPlayer (EntityPlayer player, String message){

	if(message != null && !player.worldObj.isRemote){ 
	 player.addChatMessage(new ChatComponentText(message));
	}
}

 

CLIENT SIDE only simple remove the

!player.worldObj.isRemote //bit in the above public void method and the rest is the same

 

and this would work inside a gui for example --------------------> Thank you btn is that a way and up ish

 

1. wrong section

2. this is wrong. you cant add a chat message to a player from client side just from saying addChatMessage, except of if the player is you. If you want to add a ChatMessage u need to use PacketChatMessage

lol i guess that was my bad, in my case the player is always you, so it works from client side. Maybe thats why iI didnt notice #2 thanks for the tip
