Nice!
I always wanted such a mod in Minetest.
I can't wait for client side scripting to be implemented, that will be great, I hope! (#5088)

Nice! I've been planning on adding a feature like this to our "chat2" mod. Now I don't have to :P

True, I forgot it. It's added in the readme now.

Btw if you don't add the sound to the mod, each player could have his or her own bell sound.

Re: Chat Bell - ring a bell on name's quote in chat
I m new to minetest and I am not sure to understand how sounds packs work.
If there is no sound file on the server, how the users know they can get chatbell working by putting some .ogg in their shared folder ?
I'd like to know more because it sounds better for the users. Then, you can chose your own or let it blank and chatbell is disabled. No need for the command and settings parts anymore, which makes it a 10 lines of code mod :D
For now, the sound is easily configurable (server side) in init.lua.

Re: Chat Bell - ring a bell on name's quote in chat
As much as I know, if there's no file with the right name found in the sounds folder in the mod folder then the file from the sounds folder in the minetest folder with the right name is taken.
=> You can delete the sounds folder in the mod folder (and the option commands) but play a sound like "chatbell_bell.ogg" or something like that, the players who don't have a sound with this name in the sounds folder don't hear it. (Perhaps you should add a setting command to change the gain.)

Re: Chat Bell - ring a bell on name's quote in chat
I agree on that part. But how a user connecting to a server using chatbell will know there's a missing sound and he can benefit this functionality ?

Re: Chat Bell - ring a bell on name's quote in chat
Um, the server can inform them.
Having that sound in the sounds folder makes no problem, everyone who wants to and sees this mod topic should add it. You should put here some information about it if you do it.
In future I will ask the admins of servers to install this mod to have the feature.
Edit: You should rename the sounds to something like "chatbell_coin", there could be other mods that want to use the same file name.
