[Chat]
Configures the ChatModule in Simulators.
This module will send messages to all listeners in a region which are within range of the type of message sent.
| Chat Configuration Item | Default | Example | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| enabled | true | true | Controls whether the chat module is enabled |
| whisper_distance | 10 | 10 | Distance in meters that whispers should travel |
| say_distance | 20* | 20 | Distance in meters that ordinary chat should travel |
| shout_distance | 100 | 100 | Distance in meters that shouts should travel |
* Older revisions of OpenSimulator defaulted to 30 meters instead of the expected 20 meters.
