Emote Shortcuts
The EnableEmotes
option allows players to use emote shortcuts in the form of .emote
in local chats.
These emote shortcuts cause a player's character to play the animation associated with the emote, but they don't show up in the chat message.
For example, sending the message Don't shoot! .surrender
would result in the following:
This can be useful for text roleplay servers, since players can play an animation in sync with their message.
The shortcuts can also be used without a message; sending .hi
will play the animation without sending a message in chat.
Note: Unless the emote is the only thing sent, it must come after a space. This is to prevent accidentally including an emote after ending a sentence.
