minetest CSM which records sent and received messages in the minetest log file.

requirements

tested with minetest 0.4.17 and 5.0.

only basic CSM need be enabled in 5.0, which is the default.

installation

make sure the mod is installed at ~/.minetest/clientmods/chatlog

make sure ~/.minetest/clientmods/mods.conf exists and contains:

load_mod_chatlog = true

logs will show up in ~/.minetest/debug.txt

if you use another CSM that handles the printing of chat messages e.g. friendly_chat or chat_highlights, you may have to put an entry like

chatlog?

into that other mod's depends.txt file.
