Chat
Moved the chat scrollbar to the right
When typing a message, the signing status of the displayed chat message is shown with a colored indicator
The indicator will either appear to the left of the chat input field, or to the left of the chat preview if chat preview is being used
The indicator will be blue when the displayed message is signed
The indicator will be orange when Chat Preview is enabled and a preview is waiting to be signed
The background of the chat preview will also display slightly faded when a preview is waiting to be signed
Added a warning toast when connecting to a server that doesn't enforce secure chat
The list of players on the Social Interactions screen now places entries for players with recently seen messages at the top of the list
Chat Trust Status
Messages that are not signed with the Secure Chat system, or have been tampered with by the server will now be marked
Messages with missing or invalid signatures are marked as "Not Secure"
Messages that are detected as modified are marked as "Modified"
The trust status of messages are displayed with both a colored indicator and an icon
The colored indicator is always visible
The icon is only visible when the chat screen is open
Hovering over the icon will provide more information about the trust status
For modified messages, the original secure text will also be displayed in the tooltip
System messages (non-player chat, such as command output) are displayed with a gray color indicator
Chat Preview
Added "When Sending" Chat Preview option for updating chat previews only when attempting to send a message
To confirm sending a message, a second hit of the Enter/Return key is required
The previous "ON" setting has been renamed to "While Typing"
In "While Typing" mode, the chat preview will no longer display previews if the message has not been modified by the server
Chat Preview is now enabled in singleplayer, and will display when using commands that have selector substitution such as /say
Previewed hover events and click events are highlighted with a solid background
Player Reporting
It is now possible to report a player for sending abusive messages in the game chat. A reporter is required to select the individual chat messages that contain the objectionable content, as well as the category of the report, this is to provide the best context for our moderation team to take action. This is accessed via the social interactions screen.
Multiple chat messages can be selected for reporting
Additional chat messages around this selection will also be used to provide our moderation team with further context
The category of the report can be selected from a list of Report Categories
The Report Categories screen has a "Learn About Reporting" button that links to a help article
Additional comments can be entered to provide more details and information regarding the report
