Q&A
- Does it work also on single worlds and Realms? Yes, it does!
- Does it need experiments on? Yes, in order to work this pack requires experiments on.
- Can anyone change the proximity-distance? Yes! and no... When you first install the addon anyone can change it, but you can edit it so that only people with a certain tag can do that. How? read below!
- Wait, so players can't chat at all? Well, not entirely, they can still use commands (if they know about them) such as /me, or /say. Still having long chats that way it's pretty hard... it's much better coming closer!
- Where can I get help? just come to visit us on the official discord server!
- Does it work with voice? Nope, that's voice proximity, and we are still working on it.
Options
In order to customise it you can open the in-game menu by /function proximity/menu. If you don't have commands in game run the following from console execute as <username> run function proximity/menu (without "/", yes).
- Proximity distance: minimum distance (in blocks) between players so that they can receive each other's messages.
- ChatRank template: fully customize chat-rank so that it has any appearance!
- "$t" stands for rank-tag (starting with `rank:`)
- "$u" username of the sender (xbox nametag)
- "$n" nametag of the sender
- "$m" message content
- "$c" rank colour
- Use Chat-Rank: use chat-rank functionalities for chat instead of regular chat.
- Admin tag only: only people with admin tag will be able to open menus and change settings.
- Mute message: when nobody is in the nearby they will receive a message saying "nobody can hear you".
- Addon enabled: if off the addon will be ineffective.
Adding a chat-rank:
If you want to add a chat-rank to an online player you can simply open the Proximity Tag Manager menu. If the player already has a chat-rank it will be replaced with this new one. You can choose any name and set any available mc-colour for the tag.
You can also manually change the ranks by adding/removing a tag starting with rank: but it's better using the menu.

Compatibility options (old installation): You could also use the command "esploratori
roximity_setup <distance> to change proximity distance". So, if you wanted to change the proximity distance and set it e.g. to 20 blocks you will type in chat "esploratoriroximity_setup 20".
