Chat Patches

Chat Patches 204.6.4 for Minecraft 1.20.4 on Fabric, Quilt

• Fixed errors with regex input on the search screen not updating the text color
• Made ChatSearchSettings save when the chat screen is closed then reopened; resets on game restart
• Fixed team name colors, prefixes, and suffixes being ignored when chatNameFormat is customized (#115)
• Added a new runnable config option to reload the config from disk
• Added a minor optimization to the way messages are modified to largely simplify the process in a few scenarios [prepub impl]
• Switched the text in the search settings screen to use pre-bundled translations (ON/OFF instead of a visual switch)
• Fixed the Copy String > Copy Raw String button in the copy menu removing &<code> formattings
• Dev notes:
  • Changed the CONFIG_PATH and CHATLOG_PATH variables to use the Path#resolve(String) method instead of concatenating strings
  • Removed some (now) redundant file constants and references (in StringTextUtils and Config)
  • Condensed most make... methods in Config to be less repetitive
  • formatPlayername(GameProfile) now accounts for team metadata as mentioned in the #115 fix
  • Capitalized some static final variables
  • Changed some stuff about how the config is initialized, read, and written to disk
  • Refactor StringTextUtils to TextUtils
  • Restructured the powerhouse ChatHudMixin#modifyMessage(Text, boolean) method to be more modular with message reconstruction
  • Moved the bulk of the modifyMessage method to ChatUtils to help development and greatly ease future troubleshooting
  • Created a new ChatUtils#getArg(..) method to avoid the elusive ClassCastExceptions that kept getting thrown
  • Tweaked the MessageHandlerMixin#cacheGameData method to use built-in methods instead of rewriting the same thing
  • Removed the VANILLA_MESSAGE matcher in ChatUtils because it was redundant
