Factions and custom chat format

Hi, I'm trying to add Faction names to my chat format. I have the actual name of the faction showing in chat when players chat, however it doesnt show the player's role in the faction as it usually does without a format nor does it color the names depending on the Faction's relationship with another faction. Here is what I have currently.

Code:

Faction faction = null;

        MPlayer uplayer = MPlayer.get(player);
        faction = uplayer.getFaction();

        tag = ChatColor.DARK_GRAY + "[" + ChatColor.RESET + faction.getName() + ChatColor.DARK_GRAY + "] ";

        if (player.hasPermission("chat.staff") || player.hasPermission("chat.donator")
                || player.hasPermission("chat.builder")
                || player.hasPermission("chat.admin") && !player.getName().equals("plisov")) {

            event.setFormat(tag + rank.replaceAll("&", "§") + donatorRank.replaceAll("&", "§") + ChatColor.RESET
                    + player.getDisplayName() + ChatColor.YELLOW + " » " + ChatColor.GRAY + chatColor
                    + event.getMessage());

        } else if (player.getName().equals("plisov")) {

            event.setFormat(tag + rank.replaceAll("&", "§") + donatorRank.replaceAll("&", "§") + ChatColor.RESET
                    + player.getDisplayName() + ChatColor.YELLOW + " » " + ChatColor.GRAY + chatColor
                    + event.getMessage());
        } else {

            event.setFormat(tag + rank.replaceAll("&", "§") + donatorRank.replaceAll("&", "§") + ChatColor.RESET
                    + player.getDisplayName() + ChatColor.DARK_GRAY + " » " + ChatColor.GRAY + chatColor
                    + event.getMessage());
        }
    }

Yes, I looked at the Factions developer page. Didn't really help.

Any help is much appreciated,

@plisov
Where is this 'event' variable coming from? Is this an AsyncPlayerChatEvent?
Also, player.setDisplayName(name) does not work for players. The only way to change it is to use a scoreboard prefix.

 

@timtower @ThePandaPlayer The chat itself is working the way I need it to however the Faction name isnt. All it shows it the faction name without relationship color and player roles.

 

@plisov
I asked if this is an AsyncPlayerChatEvent because you can just do this:

Code:

@EventHandler
public void onChat(AsyncPlayerChatEvent e) {
    if(e.getPlayer().hasPermission(/*permission here*/) {
        e.setMessage(/*how you want the message to go*/);
    }
}

 

Yes it is however I need to change the format itself. I have the format changed but the faction name doeasnt show relationship colors and player roles in the faction.

 

@plisov
What I'm saying is, you don't need to change the chat format. You just add if statements checking for permissions and change the message accordingly.
