Better Local Chat

Calls something that is on Kiln's roadmap. Parts of it may already run.

Evidence

Ran on Kiln's test stand (2026-11-04): BetterLocalChat did not start: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: net/fabricmc/fabric/api/message/v1/ServerMessageEvents.

What it needs from Kiln

  • Mixin
  • net.fabricmc.fabric.api.message.v1.ServerMessageEvents
  • net.fabricmc.fabric.api.message.v1.ServerMessageEvents.AllowChatMessage
  • net.minecraft.network.chat.ChatType
  • net.minecraft.network.chat.ChatType.Bound
  • net.minecraft.network.chat.PlayerChatMessage
  • net.minecraft.server.MinecraftServer
  • net.minecraft.server.players.PlayerList
  • ServerLevel.getServer()
  • ServerPlayer.distanceToSqr()

On the roadmap: Code next to data (0.3), Mixin (0.5)

In the author's words

Proximity-based chat for Minecraft servers. Chat locally by default, use ! to go global. Fully configurable!

Scan

Scanned on 4 November 2026 against Kiln 0.2.0, file BetterLocalChat 1.0.1 fabric 26.1-26.3.jar. The scan reads the mod's classes; it does not run them.
