Sounds for chat

Hello,

A fun (and useful) thing to have would be that we get a sound notification based on chat activity.

I can currently only think of a sound notification when a player sends you a private message.

These notifications may be turned off in the settings (or sound options).

or even when someone says your name in chat (like with admins/mods)

Yes, that would just be amazing!


EDIT: Not sure if this whole idea would be a good one, it might be. We'll see what the staff thinks of it.

Anyone can have it, we just use an IRC client to play the sound.

Good idea, that would make it so if someone sends you a message you will always realise it

Yes, but it doesn't ding us when we get a private message in game!

We need this!

For private messages, there's already the red message appearing in the chat. However, a sound effect added to this would also notify staff/players being AFK/watching videos/doing something else on the computer (while still being logged on craftland).
