Solved Howto change whole prefix/suffix/displayname?

PHP:

player.setDisplayName(ChatColor.GOLD+player.getName()+": "+ChatColor.WHITE);


How do I change it, so the outcome in the chat is
Player: hi
instead of
<Player:> hi
what it currently is with this piece of code.

Thanks a lot.

 

To do that, you need to manipulate minecraft's chat code, I believe, but I am not a clever one in this field, so I will leave someone else to answer this for you.

 

AsyncPlayerChatEvent

Assuming you know how to use events, use ev.setFormat(String format) to set the format (obz).

Code:JAVA

ev.setFormat(ev.getPlayer().getDisplayName() + ": " + ev.getMessage());

 

Why would you not use a format string for the message

 

Thanks, didn't know that AsyncPlayerChatEvent could change the format.

 

Oh, the "correct" way, I guess:

Code:JAVA

ev.setFormat("%1$s: %2$s");

My bad.
