Which channel a server text message is routed to.
Kind enum · Area Game.Chat
WHERE THE MESSAGE GOES. The client derives the chat channel from this value, so it decides whether the text appears as an ordinary line, an error, a popup, fight-log chatter, or speech from an entity.
TEXT_INFORMATION_POPUP is the one that opens a popup rather than writing a line; TEXT_INFORMATION_ERROR is the error styling.
EXPECT VALUES YOU DO NOT KNOW. The set has grown from nine to thirteen since the reference build and the four newer ones have no published names, so treat an unknown value as 'display it plainly' rather than switching exhaustively.
Not sent on its own — it is a member type of TextInformationEvent, never sent alone. proven

Values
| Value | Number | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
TEXT_INFORMATION_MESSAGE | 0 | General information, shown as an ordinary message. The name is the reference build's, matched by NUMBER. Beta 2.73.7.7 declares nine values 0-8 and every dumped 3.x build still declares all nine, adding 10-13 on top and skipping 9 - growth that is append-only, which is what makes the low numbers safe to carry. No dumped client distinguishes one value from another by name, so only the NUMBER is proven here. |
TEXT_INFORMATION_ERROR | 1 | An error, shown in the error style. The name is the reference build's, matched by NUMBER. Beta 2.73.7.7 declares nine values 0-8 and every dumped 3.x build still declares all nine, adding 10-13 on top and skipping 9 - growth that is append-only, which is what makes the low numbers safe to carry. No dumped client distinguishes one value from another by name, so only the NUMBER is proven here. |
TEXT_INFORMATION_PVP | 2 | PvP information. The name is the reference build's, matched by NUMBER. Beta 2.73.7.7 declares nine values 0-8 and every dumped 3.x build still declares all nine, adding 10-13 on top and skipping 9 - growth that is append-only, which is what makes the low numbers safe to carry.

TEXT_INFORMATION_FIGHT_LOG | 3 | A line of the fight log. The name is the reference build's, matched by NUMBER. Beta 2.73.7.7 declares nine values 0-8 and every dumped 3.x build still declares all nine, adding 10-13 on top and skipping 9 - growth that is append-only, which is what makes the low numbers safe to carry. No dumped client distinguishes one value from another by name, so only the NUMBER is proven here. |
TEXT_INFORMATION_POPUP | 4 | Shown as a popup rather than inline. The name is the reference build's, matched by NUMBER. Beta 2.73.7.7 declares nine values 0-8 and every dumped 3.x build still declares all nine, adding 10-13 on top and skipping 9 - growth that is append-only, which is what makes the low numbers safe to carry.

Beta 2.73.7.7 declares nine values 0-8 and every dumped 3.x build still declares all nine, adding 10-13 on top and skipping 9 - growth that is append-only, which is what makes the low numbers safe to carry.
