deactivate standard chat ...

[Kaylin]

Hi,

How can I deactivate the standard Chat?

I want to make a reallife server, but don't want to use the standard chat...

Hope you can help ...

The Chat should be shown, but without standard text input...

addEventHandler( "onPlayerChat", getRootElement(), 
function ( message, messageType ) 
        if messageType == 0 then 
            cancelEvent() 
    end 
end)

And if you don't want them to be able to open the box, you can use toggleControl(thePlayer, 'chat', false).

(This doesn't disable chat, players can still use 'say' in the console, so use Solidsnake14's script too ^ )
