Cosmetics System

NapMC stores chat and lobby cosmetics in a database so your style persists across resets. Cosmetics unlock through ranks and events. If you cannot use a command, /help will hide it until you unlock it.

Formatting Basics

Most text cosmetics accept legacy color codes (&a, &l, &#FFAA00) and MiniMessage tags (like gradients). The server enforces length limits and auto-moderates messages to block disallowed content.

Current length limits (no color codes):

  • Nickname: 15
  • Prefix: 20
  • Suffix: 20
  • Kill message: 80
  • Death message: 80
  • Server list MOTD: 120

Chat Cosmetics

  • Prefix / Suffix: set with /prefix and /suffix.
  • Nickname: set with /nickname (alias /nick).
  • Chat Color: /chatcolor opens a GUI with Solid, Gradient, and Rainbow styles.
  • Chat Mode: /chatmode <global|proximity|team> controls where your chat goes.
  • Message Animation: /msganimation animates your last message placeholder.

Message Cosmetics

  • Kill/Death: /killmessage and /deathmessage let you customize the broadcasts shown when you kill or die. Placeholders like %player%, %victim%, and %killer% are supported (see each command page for details).
  • Join/Leave: custom join/leave text is currently disabled. You can still toggle visibility with /joinmessage, /leavemessage, or /messagevisibility.

Server List Cosmetics

  • Personal MOTD: /serverlistmotd <line1>|<line2> lets you customize the two-line MOTD you see in your server list.

Permissions and Unlocks

Most cosmetics are unlocked via ranks or seasonal rewards. If a command tells you that you do not have permission, that cosmetic is still locked for you.
