If two TextChannels are created with the same name, and one player is in one channel, and one player is in the other, the first player is able to see the text sent to the other channel, but is not able to communicate. They can write text, but the text cannot be seen by anyone.

Steps:

  1. Create 2 TextChannels with the same name and turn on ChannelTabs.
  2. In multiplayer play test mode, have one player join one channel, and another player join the other.
  3. Have the players type in the text channels. One player is able to type normally, the other can see the chat of the other player, but their chats cannot be seen.
