Chat Command Guide (For v1.3 onward)
Notice
Note that all values are not clamped if setting using chat command, so don't try setting them to an out-of-range value. Weird thing may happen. Your server may crash.
If you really want to set a weird value, try it on SP first. Or for more safety, use User Config file instead.
You can batch multiple commands in a single chat command. For example,
/Pantenna Enable ReloadCfg ShowPanel=true
will execute 3 commands Enable, ReloadCfg and ShowPanelin order.
All config changes are not saved automatically (effective this session only). You have to use SaveConfig command to save them to User Config file.
Terminology
  • Panel: The HUD panel which display a list of signals. Basically this is the main part of this mod.
  • Item: Each line is an "item", consists of signal's icons, distance, and signal name. Each "item" displays one signal.
  • Command: The command that follows "/Pantenna" prefix, for example "ReloadCfg".
  • Argument: The argument that follows an equal sign ("=") after each command, for example "ShowPanel=true" in which "true" is argument.


/Pantenna ReloadCfg
Argument: None
Reload User Config.

/Pantenna SaveCfg
Argument: None
Save current User Config to file. This is useful when you use command to change configs, and want to keep them (Config does not auto-save).

/Pantenna Enable
Argument: None
Enable this mod if it is disabled using User Config.

/Pantenna ShowPanel=true
Argument: true or false
Toggle show/hide the whole panel.

/Pantenna ShowPanelBG=true
Argument: true or false
Toggle show/hide panel background only.

/Pantenna MinimalMode=true
Argument: true or false
Toggle show/hide Signal Name label.

/Pantenna Scale=1.0
Argument: decimal
Set the scale of the whole panel, includes all items on it.

/Pantenna PanelPos=1475,590
Argument: pair of two decimals
Set the panel's position on screen, in pixel.

/Pantenna PanelWidth=420
Argument: true or false
Set the panel's Width size, in pixel.

/Pantenna RadarRange=5000
Argument: decimal
Set the maximum radar range.


The following commands are added during the early phase of development, for debugging purpose only. However it may be useful to you in certain situation, idk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
/Pantenna PeekCfg
Argument: None
Displays a dialog box contains the raw content of User Config file (ClientConfig.xml). I used this to test if mod can detect and read the file.

/Pantenna LoadedCfg
Argument: None
Displays a dialog box contains the loaded config. I used this to test if config changes are taking effect.
