Ok, now if a server is 0.2.8.0, then there are some chat features that you can use.
Private Messaging
Now you can private message in game, and it's easy too. Here's how.
To private message SD, you would type into the chat:
/msg SD Psst, SD!
This would send the message "Psst, SD!" to SD.
Q: If there is a complex name that cannot be spelled on an english keyboard because of the strange letters... how is pm'ing done?
A: You can ignore them and use unaccented letters instead. /msg goes by the user name where that stuff is filtered out, and you can get the filtered name displayed with /players.
Team Messaging
Team Messaging is easier than Private Messaging. All you have to do is type:
/team message_goes_here
And your team got the message!
Action Messages
You can also do:
/me message
For instance,
/me is playing badly today
would display:
*Self Destructo is playing badly today*
