The problem is that trying to use the /r in chat to respond to a whisper fails to do anything when LibChatMessage is in "hack-around" mode.
Proof of concept minimal addon src:
Code:
chatTest = {
name = "chatTest",
}
-- Registering libraries
local LCM = LibChatMessage
-- ugly message formatter
local function FormatMessage(chanCode, from, text, isCS, fromDisplayName)
local message = string.format("[%s/%s] %s",zo_strformat(SI_UNIT_NAME, from), fromDisplayName, text)
return message
end
-- Registers the FormatMessage function with the LibChatMessage to handle chat formatting.
local function OnPlayerActivated()
EVENT_MANAGER:UnregisterForEvent(chatTest.name, EVENT_PLAYER_ACTIVATED)
-- set the chat event handlers for LibChatMessage to use
LCM.formatRegularChat = true
local evthdlrs = ZO_ChatSystem_GetEventHandlers()
evthdlrs[EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL] = FormatMessage
end
--
local function OnAddonLoaded(_, addonName)
if addonName ~= chatTest.name then return end
EVENT_MANAGER:UnregisterForEvent(chatTest.name, EVENT_ADD_ON_LOADED)
EVENT_MANAGER:RegisterForEvent(chatTest.name, EVENT_PLAYER_ACTIVATED, OnPlayerActivated)
end
EVENT_MANAGER:RegisterForEvent(chatTest.name, EVENT_ADD_ON_LOADED, OnAddonLoaded)
When the line
Code:
evthdlrs[EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL] = FormatMessage
is commented out, the /r works normally.
When the line is not commented, the /r chat command fails to work.
Anyone have any ideas?
