File:Titans-icon.png Planetary Annihilation Community Chat
- global chat available in Titans & Classic PA
- replaces PA Chat mod automatically
Web version: https://palobby.com/community-chat/ (requires Chrome / Chromium / Safari latest)
Also see:
- Planetary Annihilation Community Chat Implementation (will add soon)
File:Gold-rank-icon.png Changes
- no room limit although current user interface may slow with massive room user list eventually (PA Chat limit via XMPP was 100)
- no commands now... everything is right click with name at top for confirmation and help on top right
- no bans now... just system wide mutes where they can see everything but not contribute
- no private rooms for now... only global and tournaments
- no game invite spam... only friends, recent contacts and search results can now be invited
- usernames for inactive users show as dimmed for historical messages
- max message size is 200... do not test the limits
- individual messages can be permanently muted (and umuted)
- individual messages can be permanently deleted (and undeleted)
- all messages are logged
Implementation:
- chat rooms use web sockets and a new Community Chat server... no more XMPP multi-user chat rooms
- XMPP is only used for default functionality like friends lists, game invites, etc
- room users are now lightweight and no longer create full CONTACT users ie the user tag map will not grow for every user who joins room
