Text Chat
Overview
There is no text chat in Baldur's Gate 3. Which is weird. There should be. So I implemented it!
Features
Moveable!
Resizeable!
Compatible with Party Limit Begone mod! (8 player multiplayer anyone?)
Settings save on your local machine (so unique for each user and is persistent through different saves)!
Semi-transparent (So you can still see the game when you're not actively using it)!
Passes clicks through it so you're not always accidentally clicking the chat box!
Setup/Installation
How to use
Click on the text box at the bottom of the chat window to start typing your message.
Hit 'enter' to send message.
Hit 'Esc' to clear typed message.
Click on "Settings" to begin moving and resizing the window (remember to move and resize: Click and drag using MIDDLE MOUSE BUTTON) Also select the option out of the available window sizes that best matches your Baldur's Gate 3 window size
