    const chatCallback = world.beforeEvents.chatSend.subscribe((eventData) => {
    if (eventData.message.includes("cancel")) {
    // Cancel event if the message contains "cancel"
    eventData.cancel = true;
    } else {
    const args = eventData.message.split(" ");

    if (args.length > 0) {
    switch (args[0].toLowerCase()) {
