Chat Mod

🎨 Atlas Sprite Icons (Minecraft 1.21.9+) The biggest feature addition: inline item and block icons rendered directly in chat, titles, action bars, boss bars, and all other text contexts using Minecraft's new object text component. New syntax for players in chat:

[#item] — shows the atlas sprite icon of your held item + its name [#item:3] — same for predefined item slot 3 [##item] — shows only the icon (no name) of your held item [##item:3] — icon only for predefined slot 3 [#diamond] — shows any named sprite inline (block names, item names)

Custom placeholder icon syntax:

[spawn] — text only, even if icon: is set in placeholders.yml [#spawn] — shows the configured icon + text [##spawn] — shows only the configured icon

Permission nodes added:

chatmod.chatitem.icon — use [#item] / [#item:N] chatmod.chatitem.icon_only — use [##item] / [##item:N] chatmod.chaticon — use [#SpriteName] in chat

📋 New sprites.yml config A new configuration file that maps short alias names to full atlas sprite paths. Lets admins define grass: "block/grass_block_side" so players can type [#grass] instead of the full path. Ships with aliases for common blocks, items, and the three special entity sprites available in the blocks atlas.

📢 Broadcasts — Full placeholder support All [] placeholder syntaxes now work in every broadcast type including /cm bcnow, predefined broadcasts, and the cycling legacy broadcaster — across CHAT, ACTION_BAR, TITLE, and BOSSBAR display types.

[spawn], [discord] and all custom placeholders now expand in broadcast messages [item:N] (predefined slot items) now render correctly in broadcasts even without a player context [#item] and [##item] in /cm bcnow and scheduled broadcasts now resolve to the held item of the player who issued the command
