bad parsing of message

[3jq]

• The FAQ doesn't contain a resolution to my issue

Versions

• mineflayer: 4.20.0

• node: v18.17.1

Detailed description of a problem

if you enter a dot in the message either of this happens:

1. its just that the message owner is not being shown
2. its being weird (idk how it works..)

What did you try yet?

changing chat.js bot.on('playerChat') code. parsing messages only from .fromNotch method, didnt work

Your current code

        bot.on('chat', async (username, message) => {
            console.log(`USERNAME ${username} MESSAGE ${message}`)
        });

        bot.on('message', (message) => {
            console.log(`ONMESSAGE ${message}`)
        })

        bot.on('messagestr', (message, position, sender, verified) => {
            console.log(`MESSAGESTR ${message}`);
        });

Expected behavior

normally parsed messages

Additional context

Actual in-game chat:
[sleepobot] If it ain't drillable, it's probably flammable.
[sleepooo] Hello
[sleepooo] Hello.
[sleepooo] Hello1.Hello2.Hello3

What's happening in the cmd:
// first message
ONMESSAGE flammable.
MESSAGESTR flammable.

// second message
ONMESSAGE Hello
MESSAGESTR Hello
USERNAME sleepooo MESSAGE Hello

// third message
ONMESSAGE Hello.
MESSAGESTR Hello.

// fourth message
ONMESSAGE Hello1.Hello2.Hello3
MESSAGESTR Hello1.Hello2.Hello3

This seems intentional, as the server is sending the message as a system message and not a user chat message. The chat event is specifically checking for user chat messages. message and messagestr are the same event but with different parameter arrangements. You should listen to message which will capture both system and user messages and extract the messages out from there.

bot.on('message', function (msg) {
  console.dir(msg, { depth: null })
})
