Announcements

Announcements are programmable messages that you can create once then set to display on a timer whenever you need. Hosting an event this evening? Set an announcement to go off every 10 minutes reminding your players to go along! To see the avaliable commands use:

/announcement

If you wish to add an announcement simply do:

/announcement add <announcement name> <message to announce>

To start the announcement use:

/announcement start <announcement name> <interval in minutes>

When you want the announcement to stop just do:

/announcement stop <announcement name>

If you need to delete an announcement then use:

/announcement remove <announcement name>

To view a list of all avaliable announcements (As of version 1.4) use:

/announcement list

Want to display a saved announcement message once but without putting it on a timer?

/announce <announcement name>

All announcements support colour codes and other formatting!

The permission to use all the announcements commands is:

multichat.announce


Bulletins

At first you will probably get confused between announcements and bulletins as they are very similar! The bulletin is a list of messages that display one after another, separated by a defined interval in minutes. For example, if you have basic informationt that you always want to display periodically on the server such as how to get to your website, how to get ranks etc. Then all of this can be added to the bulletin and they will display periodically. To view the bulletin commands do:

/bulletin

Adding a message to the bulletin is very simple:

`/bulletin add '

To start the bulletin just do:

/bulletin start <interval in minutes>

Stopping the bulletin is also very easy:

/bulletin stop

If you want to delete a message from the bulletin then first use:

/bulletin list

This will show all the messages with an index number at the left hand side, then use:

/bulletin remove <index>

And that is all there is to using bulletins! Like announcements they support all colours and formatting!

The permission to use bulletins is:

multichat.bulletin
