Is this mod still working or has the broken part mentioned previously been fixed? I am asking as we need something like this for our server but not willing to struggle with mods known to be broken? Thanks in advance

MOTD: Works as advertised
Timed Messages: Broken, nothing is displayed
Annoucement: Broken, file is read and deleted but nothing displayed

the file is not creating in my dedicated server for me to edit

I will look into the macros.

Nice Mod,
This is what i was searching for. Thank you.
Unfortunately some macros don't work like @PlayerName and @WorldName. I have even tried a compled new-installation of the dedicated server. /help is also not working, but no big issue.

! Messages.txt - works?

is /help working ? I created a hangars.txt and neither /help or /help hangars shows via chat ? But being an admin i think something might be overriding it ?

It all works just fine! The colors for timed messages to emulate foe/friendly would be an awesome add

I think I may totally revamp this. Not sure what is working.

Those timed chat messages, does it still work? Empty world no mods, no scripts, default time 5, been waiting for 30 mins no messages appears. Only thing that works are the motd and help file.

Can one use colours in timed chat messages?

Hey Chrisbot, is it possible to extend timed messages? If I wanted to time a message to a server restart every 12 hours it would be every 720 minutes as an example. Currently it says up to 60 mins. I think it would be a useful feature for folks with DS if it's possible.

Let me do a little research first. I've got an idea that will very much improve managing the mod including timed messaging. I'm querying around to see if it is possible to make TCP or UDP port connections to the game. The methods usually used to achieve this are not "white-listed" so I'm trying to see if there is some way to otherwise achieve it. Hang in there!

I'm referring to this comment in the Announcement section of the mod description.
"After the announcement has been displayed, the '!announcement.txt' file will be deleted."
The way i'm understanding this is; Since I want the server restart message be an announcement instead of a chat message, I would need to make a new announcement file everyday?

That's odd. I'll look into it.

Looking to send an announcement for a daily server restart warning. I noticed the announcement file gets deleted every time... anyway to get around this?

hello, i would like to send an announcement only at a set time, before a server is restarted every 3hrs. can i use this mod or do i have to use the v1?

@Nicomedes, yes, @Macros work in Timed Messages.

@Mirko, I must apologize. I do not understand the question. Any language good.

@Nicomedes, please do let me know how your test goes. As you can tell from recent threads, there is an open question. Yes, macros work in help and announcements TXT file. Will be interested to learn your findings and suggestions.

Hi there! I'm about to test out this mod, so i'm hoping for it to work with the current version of the game :) One question if you dont mind; Does the @Macros work in Timed Messages ?

Hi i do not know if i do that! now before you Help.TXT or Announcements.TXT must set. With the Messange.TXT the same.

@Chrisbot thx

@Mirko - Is something broken?

@<~Thomasio - Good idea. I will take a look at doing that.

could you bring the mod to the current state please. That would be nice.

is it possible that you can introduce a new feature?
Popup message and chat message like Annoucement?

!popup.txt
and
!chat.txt

so that I or a program can create a popup.txt and it opens with all players

Refer to SpaceEngineers dcumentation for the locations of the mods and saves folders for client and server.

I installed the mod and I can't find the folder, where is it supposed to be?

I'll look into the possibility of listing mods.

I have listed the macros in the description above.

what hunter below said..

Hello! I wanted to ask you for information about your mod message play2.
Is there a macro @ that displays the mods installed on the server? Also, where can I find this list to use copy and paste? Thanks and congratulations for the beautiful mod

[h1]Macros do not work![/h1]
When will the Unicode update?
The suggestion of Elon Musk with messages to a fixed date would be really nice!

Hello,

your mod is very cool !
I am looking for the option to send automaticaly a message 5 minutes before a reboot. I have 4 reboots (00:00; 06:00; 12:00; 18:00).

Do you know if it's doable ?

Thank you :)

doesn't support the Russian Cyrillics
pls fix

Oh, that's great! Thanks for letting me know.

its works now after update...tnx mate

okay Chris

Will check this out. Please, give me a little time on this.

after new patch not works at all

not works(MessagePlay2) + mod Energy Shields ( http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=484504816 )

This is awesome!

Great, thanks!

Julian, I will add Unicode soon to support Cyrillic languages.

Great Job! Thank You!
But only English ABC is known.
I would need other characters as well, but at least for them: ö, ü. And they would be good too: á, é, ő, ú, û, í, ó. (Hungary)

Btw, if you have access to your server's Scheduled Tasks, you could leverage Announcements in the mean time.

Mods are written in C#.

Hope it gets a quick release
we want to send a message before restart so this would be REALY nice :D
which language are you using for mods?

Gibihm Hartman, that feature is coming and is in the planning stage right now. Thanks for your question.
