VoiceHub

A full-featured voice channel system for Hytale servers. Think Discord/TeamSpeak built directly into the game — players can create channels, join voice groups, and communicate without external tools.

Main Command: /ksvoice (Aliases: vc, voicehub)

Features at a Glance​

Voice Channels​

Create and join voice channels with different types:

TypeDescription
GroupAll members hear each other regardless of distance
WhisperPrivate 1-on-1 conversation (max 2 players)
ModeratedOnly players with talk power can speak
GlobalServer-wide channel
ProximityDistance-based — only nearby players hear you

Talk Power System​

Moderated channels require talk power to speak:

  • Members can request talk power with a reason
  • Owner/Mods grant or revoke talk power via UI buttons
  • Owner and Moderators always have talk power

Channel Customization​

  • Password protection — SHA-256 hashed
  • Invite-only mode
  • Custom range — set hearing distance per channel (0 = unlimited)
  • Description — visible in channel detail
  • Max members — configurable limit

Voice Isolation​

Players in different channels are completely isolated:

  • Channel members only hear each other
  • Proximity players don't hear channel members and vice versa
  • Powered by a custom VoiceRouter hook

Text Chat​

Type !vc <message> to send a text message to your voice channel members only.

Admin Panel​

Full admin dashboard accessible via /ksvoice admin panel:

  • Real-time statistics (channels, users, online, voice status)
  • Channel management with detail view
  • Proximity settings (range, volume)
  • Voice ban/blacklist system with timed bans

Player UI​

Two-panel browser accessible via /ksvoice open:

  • Left panel: Channel list with create tab
  • Right panel: My Channel with members, settings, and talk power controls
  • HyVatar player avatars in member list

Quick Start​

  1. Install the VoiceHub JAR in your server's mods/ folder
  2. Start the server — default config and channels are created automatically
  3. Players use /ksvoice open or /voicehub to open the channel browser
  4. Create a channel, invite friends, and start talking!

Known Limitations​

  • Cross-world voice is not supported — Hytale's QUIC voice streams are world-scoped. Players in different worlds cannot hear each other through channels. A warning is shown when this occurs.
  • Voice requires Update 4+ — the mod uses Hytale's Update 4 Voice API. On older servers, the channel system works but voice routing is disabled.
