So I made a weird little box in game. Its a chatter box and its very simple.

Chatter Box is a limited in game public discussion box.

Clicking on the box will give you a note card explaining how to use it.

Saying !read will cause the box to repeat the last 5 chat messages it recieved.

Saying !chat followed by a message up to 80 characters in length will add your comment to the messages.

For example:
!chat Hello! This is a chat message!

You can't add two comments in a row, if you try the second comment will replace the previous. This allows you to redo / correct a comment after you say it and prevents any one person from spamming out the chat.

I put one up in my Arcade in Taber, and I set it for sale for $1 no mod no copy. If you like it, have feature requests or want one that does longer messages or more messages send me an IM.

:)

These boxes can be gained from my Arcades in Taber or Coney and should be copyable so you can get them from other people.
