Look at the top of the file where the variables are:

lootTab = nil

It should stay next to:

Find a free area before:

Code:

function clear()

add:

Code:

function addLootMessage(text)
    if not lootTab then

    end

    addTabText(text, SpeakTypesSettings.channelOrange, lootTab)
end

3) Create a Loot tab when entering the game
Search:

Code:

function online()

Inside look for:

Code:

defaultTab = addTab(tr('Default'), true)
serverTab = addTab(tr('Server Log'), false)

Add below:

Code:

lootTab = addTab("Loot", false)

4) Prevent the player from typing in the Loot tab
Look for function:

Code:

function sendMessage(message, tab)

after:

Code:

local tab = tab or getCurrentTab()

add:

Code:

if tab == lootTab then
    return true
end

5) Clean Loot tab when disconnecting

function clear()

Search:

Code:

consoleTabBar:removeTab(serverTab)

    return
end

change for:

    return
end

11) Register function to receive Opcode
Add at the end of the file:

12) Create Extended Opcode receiver module:
Create file: modules/game_loot/loot.lua

Code:

local LOOT_OPCODE = 226

function init()
    ProtocolGame.registerExtendedOpcode(LOOT_OPCODE, onLootOpcode)
end

function terminate()
    ProtocolGame.unregisterExtendedOpcode(LOOT_OPCODE)
end

function onLootOpcode(protocol, opcode, buffer)
    modules.game_console.addLootMessage(buffer)
end

Create File: modules/game_loot/loot.otmod

Code:

Module
  name: game_loot
  description: Loot Channel
  author: Mclovin
  website:
  sandboxed: true
  autoload: true
  scripts: [ loot ]
  @onLoad: init()
