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.
