About this Mod
chat-attestation
Botless impersonation protection for Kaboom and perhaps other servers
NEVER SEND YOUR chat-attestation.priv.key FILE TO ANYONE. Your public key is printed in logs at startup (search
for "
Encoded public key").
Issues
- Incompatible with ChatPatches (#2)
- Seems that the contents are updated after being added to the chat component. This breaks system chat.
- Compressed normal chat does not work with ChipmunkMod (#4)
- You cannot send compressed normal chat, but you can read it. Seems like sendChat is invoked twice.
- Occasional command sign failure (#3)
- Looks to be a race condition. Honestly, I think I might just remove this feature.
