are you referring to the message on the MFD in IVA?

the mod in general

#

IRC is a chat protocol like discord, and twitch's chat happens to be based on it. KSP IRC is an IRC client that is built into a KSP mod, and has some UI for interacting with IRC chat in-game. My fork of KSP IRC integrates with the MFD so you can see twitch chat (or any IRC chat) on the MFD (but you can't write back)

how do i set it up?

#

there's a settings window in-game

#

here's a dump of my settings:

host = irc.chat.twitch.tv
port = 6667
secure = False
twitch = True
user = JonnyOThan
serverPassword = ************************
nick = JonnyOThan
forceSimpleRender = False
channels = #jonnyothan
tts = False
ttsVolume = 100
chatterer = True
debug = False

If you're using twitch, you need to get an oauth token from something like https://twitchapps.com/tmi/

Then in game you click the yellow chat bubble and select the channel, the MFD will show whatever the active channel is from the main gui window
