| Summary | 0000368: normal chat cannot be formally distinguished from system messages, commands, etc. |
| Description | As you can see in attached txt file, commands and system messages are formally indistinguishable from non-team chat.
Possible fix: add (CHAT) in front of those lines. |
| Steps To Reproduce | |

I dont see the issue.
Normal chat looks like this:
[playername] chattext |

And exactly that is the issue. Assume you have two players:
One named Player, one named [Player].
"Player" now says "has left the alpha team".
The resulting message:
[Player] has left the alpha team
is ambiguous: It is not possible to know whether "Player" just wrote a chet message, or "[Player]" actually left a team.
(The whole protocol is a horrible mess anyway. Filtering out messages is basically brute-forcing and matching against possible masks.) |

I'd rather throw current admin protocol to bin, but tweak would be useful either i guess. |
