Enable your server players to see when someone actively writing in chat.
\nServer admins should install this plugin on their server. Then everyone who install TypingInChat client side mod will have visual indication while they are mashing keys in chat interface.
\nPlayers who do not have client-side mod will only see other player’s indicators and will not have their own.<\/p>\n
# Features
\n– Animated and highly customizable. Looks defined by server admins.
\n– Permissions support to show or hide indication for specific users or groups.
\n– Visible for players that don’t have clientside mod.
\n– Based on packets and text-display entities.
\n– Text-displays are attached to players.<\/p>\n
