Plain chat reaches other forces without needing /shout, to everyone or just your allies.

In multiplayer, normal chat only reaches your own force. This mod re-sends it to other forces, so you don't have to type /shout every time.

Settings

  • Always shout (per player) and Force all chat to shout (map-wide): turn on cross-force chat. The map setting applies to everyone and overrides the player setting.
  • Shout to (per player, with a map-wide override): send to everyone, or only to allied forces (forces that are mutually friends).
  • Include force name in shouts (per player and map-wide): adds the sender's force name, in the force's color, such as [Team 2].

Chat commands

  • /team, /t: message your own team only.
  • /ally, /a: message your own team and allied forces.

Inspired by Always Shout (Show chat to all forces) by x2605, which is 1.1-only. This is a new rewrite for 2.1.
