I hope that you are not overwhelmed because of my posts

No, no problem 😉

I'll take a look at this sender parameter

Samarium I think that I will implement own chat plugin which is more customizable and share it here later.
But I need to learn how to deploy it as npm package first 😄
I saw you use lerna tool for that. I have to try

Samarium

dominx99 don't worry, I'll improve the documentation to write a plugin for RPGJS. But, you can publish your own package that starts with rpgjs-.
It will then be understood by the compiler.

Here is a more complete documentation if you wish to create plugins:

I was thinking about implementing a global chat plugin and it works perfectly for me.
But I have concerns that it won't work in case of using kubernetes/agones

because I use this code to send message for all players:

sendToAll(data: InstantChatMessage) {
        RpgWorld.getPlayers().forEach(player => {
            player.emit('chat-message', this.instantMessage(data, {
                type: data.type || ChatMessageType.Default,
            }))
        })
    }

but I think that RpgWorlds.getPlayers will work only in the case of a single server instance, won't it?

Yes 🙂

Sure, I understand
Can I implement it by myself somehow?
Maybe there is the possibility to emit through the socket to all other instances messages on chat?
Or maybe there is another way to communicate between instances?

It's a question for the future because I plan to integrate my game with your Agones plugin.
