Description
I'm back and heres my recent project

This mod is made for servers in mind, it's for people on your server who can't access their keyboard or are using a controller and still want to talk to others. Let's any player 2 on splitscreen talk on the server to.
A lot of games have a quick chat menu, battlefield, rocket league, resident evil etc I thought I'd bring one to PZ

I'm going to list the features and give examples, when you click on a catagory one of 15 phrases will be picked at random and said, I made lots of variations so it will stay fresh.

1.Greetings- e.g. Hi, Hello, Hey there
2.Thanks- e.g. Thank you, I owe you, I'm in your debt
3.Apologise- e.g. Sorry, My bad, It was a mistake
4.Compliment- e.g. Nice one, You're good
5.Plan- Will give you a suggestion of something to do e.g. Lets burn something, Let's find a new outfit
6.Request- There are only 4 of these so you don't cycle through a lot to say what you need. These options have you asking for weapon, water, food, medical supplies.
7.Yes- e.g. Yup, Yes, Sure
8.No- e.g. Nope, No, Not even a little
9.Taunt-e.g. Too easy, Didn't stand a chance, You'd look great dead
10.Help- e.g. I need assistance, Help needed here, I need some help over here


The item is also called "A Fast Chat Tool" for quick access I was thinking about Zed Chat so it appears at the bottom. I think "fast Chat" may be more useful up top but testing will tell.
If you think Catagories should be removed, changed or new ones added let me know and if it's requested enough I'll happily change them. This mod is for the community.
It's crafted with an amplifier and a piece of electronic scrap

Usually I'd like to point you to my collection above but it's been just over a year, 11 workshop uploads later and I finally made a youtube to display mods, so if you have time maybe you can go idle a few videos or even watch them you'd really be helping me on that one.

Mod demo video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEvNnLqIEXc

I probably wont see ya'll (unless in game) til next year so Happy New Year, christmas may have already happened when I upload this I don't know, anyways until next year lets make it a good one!

Edit: Merry Christmas to! ;)

Off topic AF, But im playing with Nucleus Co-op with my GF, Im on controller, and i cant turn of the default Chatbox at all with controller since i cant unlock my cursor. Do you know how to turn the chatbox off by default when joining a server, or will maybe this mod save me from the chatbox that overlaps half my inventory?

It does not seem to be working. Not sure if its messing up from another mod we have installed or something... its possible. will let you know if i figure out why.

@Legion No known issues with the mod, it works as shown in the video. Hope you enjoy it.

We are looking into adding this to our server. We are in the process of updating the server for a new lore. Any known issues with the latest updates?

Hey this mod has a nice Rate to Sub ratio, seems a few of you want this and thats awesome! I also hope to see it on some servers >.> you hear me Redboid?:spiffo:

@Gabe Thanks for the great feedback, you gave me some things I'll need to test out. I like modding, the whole changing a game then seeing people use it. It's really quite fun:spiffo:

Great mod, adds something that has been missing for gamepad users.
A few suggestions that I believe are quite important:

-Include everything is a structured sub menu:
1. Chat:
1a: Yes:
1a.a: "YES!"
1a.b: "SURE!"
...
1b: Help:
1b.a: Food:
1b.a.a: "I need food"
.....

-Use OnGamepadKeyPress/OnKeyPress to open the context menu without opening the inventory every time.
-Make it "easy" to add custom messages and sections (maybe using a JSON like structure and make everything dynamic)
-(for the lulz) add smileys

It has great potential, it'd be nice to have you do it. Sadly I don't know LUA nor have read much of the documentation for modding PZ, or I would have added it myself and saved you the work (in case you want to do it).

Cheers and great work! :steamhappy:
