TextFontModifier

This plugin replaces font for actionbar, scoreboard (title included) and boss-bar texts. There are no commands or anything, it starts to work when plugin gets enabled. This plugin was initially made for 1.19.2 but it should work 1.19+

Made this quite a while ago for Drag Championship (MCC recreation). Maybe someone might find this useful, dunno.

Requires PaperMC and ProtocolLib!

Features

Multiple font support
Disable certain packets
Custom "color code" for font
Only allow text to change font if regex matches

So, how does it work?

There's a packet listener and what it does is basically gets every text (in json) that is sent to the player and changes font property. This plugin might be resource-intensive, but there wasn't really a way for me to make it work in any other way on the event server I mentioned above.

Usage

Just drop this plugin to your /plugins/ folder, and you are good to go (also change the font's name in configuration).

Configuration

New version now has migration (pretty useless ngl) from old configuration (v1.0.0/v1.0.1) to a new one (v1.1.1).

Default config.yml

fonts:
  default-font:
    name: namespace:key
    special-symbol: $u
regex:
  value: '[\p{Print}&&[^~,],]+'
  invert: false
packets:
  boss-bar:
    enable: true
    forced-font: default-font
  action-bar:
    enable: true
    forced-font: default-font
  scoreboard-title:
    enable: true
    forced-font: default-font
  scoreboard-scores:
    enable: true
    forced-font: ''
config-version: 1

v1.0.1/v1.0.0 old config.yml

font: minecraft:key
regex: '[\p{Print}&&[^~,],]+'
invert-regex: false
packets:
  boss-bar: true
  action-bar: true
  scoreboard-title: true
  scoreboard-scores: true
special-symbol-for-scoreboards: $u

Forced fonts

Forced font means that it will use that specific font only and special symbol won't work. Note that you need to specify configuration key and not actual font!

What's a special symbol? (The default is `$u`)

The special symbol is a custom "color code" that replaces text's font. The font is changed until it crosses paths with another color ($usome &ctext, only some will get its font changed).

Be aware that this does not really work as a real color code, in Minecraft, message is split by colors, so text Hello &aWorld will get split into two parts and this plugin does not create seperate part if $u is inserted in a middle of the word (e.g. Hel$ulo). That means that the symbol can be anywhere in the text (or text part as I explained 🤓), it will change the whole text's font. Do not try to insert the symbol between colors (&a$u&b), it's not going to work.
