Mod Introduction

ChatBox is a dialog box mod designed for Minecraft, inspired by the dialog systems found in Galgames. You can configure it using data packs:

- Pre-set multiple themes for dialog boxes and switch between them anytime using commands.

- Customize the appearance, position, and size of dialog boxes, option boxes, history buttons, and character portraits.

- Character portraits support multiple types: images, player avatars, and item textures. You can define custom entry animations for these portraits, with images having 3 preset animations.

- Configure dialog text and multiple options for each line. Clicking options can trigger custom commands and jump to other dialogs.

- All text elements (dialogs, options) support translation keys.

Since all dialog configurations are implemented through data packs, you can reload all dialog settings directly using the /reload command. Create beautiful dialog systems without modifying any code!

Built-in Commands

Switch themes:

/chatbox theme <data_pack_path : ResourceLocation>

Jump to a specific dialog:

/chatbox skip <data_pack_path : ResourceLocation> <group : String> <index : int>

Open dialog box:

/chatbox open

Event System

For KubeJS users, the mod provides predefined events:

```javascript //client_script

// Triggered BEFORE dialog rendering. Provides GuiGraphics for custom rendering. Cancellable. ChatBoxEvents.renderPre(event=>{ let getGuiGraphics = event.getGuiGraphics() event.cancel() })

// Triggered AFTER dialog rendering. Provides GuiGraphics for custom rendering. ChatBoxEvents.renderPost(event=>{ let getGuiGraphics = event.getGuiGraphics() })

// Triggered when jumping to a dialog. Provides dialog metadata for custom functionality. ChatBoxEvents.skipChat(event => { let { chatBoxScreen, resourceLocation, group, index } = event }) ``` Additional Information

Example data packs and documentation are available on GitHub. Upcoming feature: The author is developing a web-based JSON generator to simplify dialog configuration. Stay tuned for its release!
