Message Box [API?] 1.0

A nifty little message box for all your mods message needs!

  1. Kithio
    This is a minor framework addition that contains a way to display a message on screen without using something like the Achievement box.

    [Messages fade away after a few seconds, recommended: Small exact messages]

    Only contains 1 Class which is ChatBox.

    To use this mod to display you're own message in game like an Update message like shown in these screenshots

    How to use the function:

    Reference the ChatBox.dll (The Mod) File in your project and use
    • KithisMods.ChatMod.ChatBox.receiveChatMessage("YOUR MESSAGE", "NAME", COLOUR);
    • KithisMods.ChatMod.ChatBox.receiveChatMessage("YOUR MESSAGE", COLOUR);

    To use default colour [Black] you just need to insert a message or a message with a name if you'd like that format.
    • KithisMods.ChatMod.ChatBox.receiveChatMessage("YOUR MESSAGE");
    • KithisMods.ChatMod.ChatBox.receiveChatMessage("YOUR MESSAGE", "NAME");

    Best way to make use of this is to only call this if my mod exists and is loaded in SMAPI already.

    Which can be done by checking:
    • Type.GetType("KithisMods.ChatMod, ChatMod") != null
    and have that bound to a boolean variable;

    or in an if statement if it's only used at one location.

    PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS IN NO WAY AFFILIATED WITH OR PART OF THE CHESTSANYWHERE MOD BY PLETHOSCHILD. HIS MOD WAS USED AS AN EXAMPLE TO SHOWCASE
