Settings

Parameter Default Range Description
hold 100 0–1200 Time the bubble remains visible after finishing its animation, in ticks. 20 ticks are approximately one second.
textY 0 -100–100 Vertical offset of the text inside the bubble.
speed 1 1–20 Number of characters displayed per tick.

Example: /bbt settings 100 0 1 applies the default values.

Settings apply during the current server session. When the server is restarted, they return to their default values.

Multiplayer Behavior

When an authorized player has text bubbles enabled, their message is displayed as a bubble to clients that have TextCloudF installed and are also authorized and have their bubbles enabled. The message is not sent to normal chat. Players who do not receive the bubble will not see the message in chat either.

If the player is not authorized or uses /bbt off, their messages are sent through normal chat.

Colors

Place the color code before the text fragment you want to color. For example:

&cHello! &aHow are you?

The codes &0–&f are supported. Use &x to reset the color to the default.
