So I have been able to successfully setup several windows that redirect different types of chat messages to different windows, and I've set it up so that each of the windows redirects and sends the command to the main world.

However, I have been trying to set up something along the lines of the "auto say" feature, which doesn't seem to work with my plugin to redirect to the main world.

Examble: If I type something into my OOC window, I want whatever I type to be automatically prefixed with "OOC" so that it gets sent as an OOC command, same for Radio, etc.

I have been scouring the web and the forums and through snippets and I haven't been able to find a way to get this to work...

Can anyone help with a solution?

What code are you using to redirect what you say to the main world?

See my very simple change below where I insert

command = "OOC "..command

That will inject "OOC " in front of anything entered before pushing it to the other world.

You can easily genericize this to happen differently based on the current world name, if you name the worlds different for OOC/Radio/etc.
