The plugin works great all accept the chat window fails to scroll when new messages are sent/received, forcing you too scroll down everytime someone else talks.

Hey there. Sadly this is a known bug, and it's annoyed me a whole lot too.

I have implemented a rudimentary auto scroll functionality, but as you've noticed, it doesn't work that well. It fails especially when the message to auto scroll to, is your own message that you just wrote.

I remember spending a good hour or so trying to find a definite solution before giving up. Discord's UI is a real nightmare to understand sometimes. Note that Discord itself is not open source and a big part of this plugin's development involves reverse engineering and guessing how things were made in Discord's own codebase.

I want to encourage anyone reading this to give a shot at trying to come up with a fix themselves. If this issue receives more visibility, I will try to dedicate time to fixing this again.
