Features
Compact Duplicate Messages
Merges repeated chat messages into a single line with an occurrence counter (×N). Choose between consecutive-only, time-windowed, or unlimited compaction. Optionally skip messages with click events so interactable links stay intact.
Chat Tabs
Adds clickable channel tabs above the chat input — All, User, Party, Guild, PM, and Co-op — so you can filter chat by message type. Button textures were made by Bentcheesee. Massive thanks!
Chat Context Menu
Right-click any chat message to open a menu with options to Copy Text, Copy Message Body, Copy with &Codes, or Delete the message. Prefer instant copying? Enable Right-Click to Copy in config to skip the menu entirely.
Chat Search
Press Ctrl+F while chat is open to search through your chat history. Multi-word AND filtering means every token must match. The match count is shown live, and you can pin the search bar to always stay visible.
Extended Chat History
Increases the vanilla 100-message chat history limit to a configurable value — up to 2,048 messages — so you never lose important chat context.
Chat Animation
Smooth slide-up animation when new messages arrive, plus a subtle cubic ease-out on the chat input bar when opening chat. Both the effect and duration are configurable.
Configuration
Open the config via Mod Menu → Enhanced Chat → Config. Enhanced Chat uses MidnightLib, so all options are editable in-game with live saving.
