[Moonlight] Unify

Unify

Unify is a Discord chat bridge for Hytale servers.

It links in-game chat and a Discord channel so players and community members can communicate naturally across platforms.

Simple, lightweight, and focused on doing one thing well.

Features

Bidirectional chat between Hytale and Discord

Player chat messages synced in real time

Death messages forwarded to Discord

Automatic webhook creation and management

Clean Discord output using webhooks instead of bot spam

Requirements

You will need:

A Discord bot application

A bot token

The bot added to your Discord server

Permission to manage webhooks in the target channel

Required Discord Permissions

Make sure the bot has:

View Channels

Send Messages

Manage Webhooks

Read Message History

Without webhook permissions, Unify cannot function.

Installation

Place the Unify plugin into your server’s plugins folder

Start the server once to generate the config file

Stop the server

Edit the config

Start the server again

Configuration

Unify generates a config file that must be filled out.

Everything is required except the webhook URL. That part is handled automatically.

token = "YOUR_BOT_TOKEN_HERE" guildId = 123456789012345678 chatChannelId = 123456789012345678 chatWebhookUrl = "AUTO_GENERATED"

Config Options

token

Your Discord bot token.

Keep this private. If it leaks, regenerate it immediately.

guildId

The ID of the Discord server Unify should connect to.

chatChannelId

The Discord channel where chat and death messages will appear.

chatWebhookUrl

Do not modify this value.

Unify creates and maintains the webhook automatically.

What Gets Synced

From Hytale to Discord:

Player chat messages

Death messages

From Discord to Hytale:

Regular text messages sent in the configured channel

Troubleshooting

Nothing appears in Discord

Verify the bot is online

Check guild and channel IDs

Confirm webhook permissions

Webhook errors

Ensure the bot can manage webhooks

Try deleting the webhook manually and restarting the server

Duplicate messages

Make sure only one Unify instance is running

Remove other chat bridge plugins

Notes

Unify uses Discord webhooks to keep chat readable and avoid cluttering the channel with bot messages.

Logs usually explain issues clearly if something goes wrong.

Enjoy unified chat.
