Make chat immersive: communication is restricted by distance and by the dialects players have learned.
How it works
- Closer = clearer. Far away messages degrade into enchanting-table glyphs (Galactic alphabet vibe).
- Want to trade? Meet face to face instead of spying on global chat.
Dialects
Players can learn rare dialects by finding Dialect Tomes:
- Nether Speak: understand / communicate with players in the Nether
- Enderman Echo: understand / communicate with players in The End
Cross-dimension communication works when both players know the dialect.
Commands
/lingbarrier dialects(shows what you know)/lingbarrier reload(admin)/lingbarrier givebook <dialect> [player](admin)
Config
Everything is configurable:
- Clear / max chat distance
- Dialect books (name/lore) + drop chances + mob sources
