ProtocolLib

LPC Pro integrates with ProtocolLib for packet-level message manipulation, enabling features like message deletion and message interception.

What It Enables

• Message Deletion — Staff can delete individual messages from all players' chat via a clickable [X] button
• Message Interception — Intercept and modify outgoing chat packets

Setup

1. Install ProtocolLib on your server
2. Ensure protocol-lib: true is set in config.yml under hooks:

Message Deletion

With ProtocolLib enabled, staff with the lpcpro.chat.delete permission can delete individual chat messages. When a message is deleted:

• It is removed from the chat window of all players who received it
• The deletion happens at the packet level, so the message disappears completely

Permission

How Message Deletion Works

LPC Pro uses ProtocolLib to track outgoing chat packets and their signatures. When a staff member triggers deletion, LPC Pro sends a packet to each player's client to remove the specific message from their chat window.
