About this Mod

A PluralKit-like switchy addon for pattern-matching, per-message nickname swapping.
Requires Switchy and Styled Chat.
Requires Connector and FFAPI on forge.

Works with nicknames from Drogstyle, Styled Nicknames, and (<1.20) Drogtor.

Usage

/switchy proxy add [preset] [pattern] - adds a proxy to a preset. Pattern should include "text" as a placeholder for the message text. This allows both prefixes and suffixes to be used.

/switchy proxy remove [preset] [pattern] - removes a proxy from a preset.

When typing a chat message, /me, or /say command that matches your pattern, the nickname for that preset will be used.

Afterword

All mods are built on the work of many others.

This mod is included in Tinkerer's Quilt - our modpack about ease of
play and self-expression.

We're open to suggestions for how to implement stuff better - if you see something wonky and have an idea - let us know.
