S4_Chat - Modern FiveM Chat Resource

A fully custom chat resource for FiveM. Drops in as a standalone replacement for the default chat — works with ESX, QBCore, or no framework at all.

Features:

Proximity & global routing — /ooc, /me, /do are range-based (20 m by default); only nearby players see them
3D floating emotes — /me and /do display floating text above the player’s head, visible within 20 m for 8 seconds, fading out gracefully
Anti-spam protection — burst-based throttle: 5 messages per second max, 5 second cooldown after hitting the limit
Automatic announcements — 8 configurable messages sent on a 15-minute cycle, random or sequential order
Emoji conversion — :code: shortcodes are automatically converted to Unicode emoji
Player ID chips — optional server ID shown next to player names in messages
Export API — any other script can send messages or register commands via exports['s4_chat']
Autocomplete suggestions — all commands appear in the input hint with descriptions
Fully configurable — range, duration, anti-spam thresholds, UI fade timeout, commands, and announcements all in config.lua
Lightweight — ~0.00–0.01ms idle, no impact on server performance

Export examples:

-- Send a message to one player (server-side)
exports['s4_chat']:SendMessage(source, {
    badge   = 'INFO',
    message = 'Hello!',
    color   = '#4ec98f',
    icon    = 'bx-bell',
})

-- Register a command from another script (server-side)
exports['s4_chat']:RegisterCommand({
    cmd    = 'radio',
    badge  = 'RADIO',
    type   = 'global',
    format = 'name',
    color  = '#46c5ff',
    icon   = 'bx-radio',
    help   = 'Send a radio message.',
})
