BisectHosting's Minecraft servers have a special function that allows them to pull messages from in-game and view them from the BisectHosting Starbase panel. By utilizing regex, the chat panel can pull messages from players by monitoring the console. However, regex can only detect specific formats, so players with custom formats from plugins or mods must designate the new message style using regex.
1. Regex is a system used to automatically grab in-game chat messages from the console and input them into the Chat panel.
2. By default, regex will only detect standard chat formats, such as: <username> {message}.
3. This causes custom chat formats to not appear in the chat panel, such as: username: {message}. To fix this, press Edit Regex.
4. From the Chat Regex Modifier field, paste the following default format <(?P<name>.*)> (?P<message>.*)
5. Replace the Angle Brackets on the outside of (?P<name>.*) with the new message formatting, making sure to reflect spaces between characters.
Note: If player messages look like
[Steve] >> Messagein-game, the Regex should be changed to[(?P<name>.*)] >> (?P<message>.*)
6. Press the Save Changes button.
7. Messages with the designated formatting will be pulled into the chat panel from the console.
