ChatReceiveEvent

Learn more about ChatReceiveEvent

ChatReceiveEvent is an event that is fired when the client receives a chat message.

This event is Cancellable, meaning you can stop other mods and the game itself from receiving messages. Be careful!

You can use event.message to get the message that was received as a IChatComponent. If you want it as plain text, don't worry! You can use .getUnformattedText() to get the message as a plain String.
