# Proximity
\nA simple Proximity Text chat mod\/API<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/p>\n
Proximity modifies the vanilla chat system in order to make it proximity based. This includes:
\n1. Configurable chat distance
\n2. Configurable chat command distance (\/me \/say)
\n3. Configurable Mumble command for talking to people very close by (\/mumble or \/m)
\n4. Shout command which everyone can hear (\/shout or \/s)<\/p>\n
Everything is configurable via gamerules<\/p>\n
Proximity also offers a simple api that other mods can use to integrate with proximity’s proximity chat system
\n1. Mods can force certain players to be able to hear\/not hear other players under certain circumstances
\n2. Mods can modify the position that proximity will use for distance calculations so that, for Example, a mod that adds some sort of machine in a box can make the location the outside of the box.<\/p>\n
Proximity also adds 2 attributes:
\n1. Hearing distance which increases the distance (in blocks) a player will be able to hear messages from
\n2. Speaking distance which increases the distance (in blocks) a player’s messages will be heard from<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
