can this be updated please

Can you update this or is there a better mod for server messages

an update please.

or delete this ;)

maybe update ?

the devs did something a while back, I need to look into it, I will after 0.7 is out

Does this work still? It's creating a new storage folder every time I restart server.

Server Messages_900367518_0887eabd-8582-4822-ab1c-85026ca53195
Server Messages_900367518_51a41ce2-b73c-4c92-99b5-620be1ce4839
etc..

If you use powershell you can use this to select the newest folder.

function uploadFile($text) {
"Broadcasting '$text' in server chat.."
$path = gci $serverMessagePath | ? { $_.PSIsContainer } | sort CreationTime -desc | select -f 1
$text >> "$serverMessagePath\$path\SendMessageHere.txt"
"Broadcast complete.."
}

This seems to be not so much working again - from last week's update (or previous week's) on I believe.

The file text format must be correct or it resets it

Having a problem with the mod - everytime the server restarts the PlaceRecurringMessagesHere.txt file is reset to the default.

the mod is working again

Im having a problem

I have the recurring messages working but everytime I reset the server the messages go back to there default "this is a server message" text.

I think this Mod is great - makes managing a server so much easier!

I would like to ask though is it possible to mark messages as inactive (so the server will ignore them)?

Also, can we change the name of the [[Server]] because double brackets doesn't make much sense! I was unable to find the code!

Thanks again though - rated positive and keep up the good work!

It is in this folder Your server path\Storage\900367518

hi i tried it but it does not work, the server message doesnt change :(

Great! Thank you!

Works again. Sorry for the late fix :D
It is now in the same location but a new folder called 900367518

Thank you a lot!

I will see what is wrong and fix it

It does not work in latest 0.6.2 update

I don't know about how to access it on a rented server. You will have to ask this where you rent it

Hi where is the Sever folder, my server is a dedicated one that i rent can i still do this

Well I tried to find something like that, I found Se server extender but you need a dedicated server that runs Windows to use it... I use a dedicated server that only have a panel and FTP access sadly... ^^

Don't they have something like this already? There are a lot of Space engineers mods

Hello, good work !
Would it be possible to have this mod on space engineers :) ?

can be done, but right now I have some important mods that still need to be updated to 0.6.
I will add your request after those mods are fixed

appreciate your work. I was wondering if I could make one suggestion/request. Could you add the ability to send a message at a specific time everyday.
So for example you schedule a server restart at 10AM everyday. Have a message that is sent at 9:55 saying server restart in 5 minutes. I know this can be done manually with the SendMessageHere text file but it'd be nice to have an automated one as well.

It works now perfectly. Thank you very much for this fast support!

Fixed

I just noticed, I will fix this asap

like message += message

Superb... now the Messages appear in the game, but with one problem. The first message is shown correctly in the game. The second time the message appears, it will be sent twice. Thrid time it will be sent tree times.... four times... and so on. means, in 10 cycles the message appears 10 times at a time.

I was making some changes to it yesterday that must have did this, I will look into it tomorrow and fix it

I've run it on a ds. The folder 900367518.sbm in Storage was created, the files were created, but if i write something in SendMessageHere.txt it does not appear in game. The file was cleared, but no message was sent.
The same problem, if i try to write something into PlaceRecurringMessagesHere.txt and restart the server. No Messages. And the example messages are also not sent.

This should work now, but it will only work on a dedicated server

Ok, startet normaly, but ingame has no Output. No Testmessages are sendt.

Doesn't work.

probably not, you can always check and let me know :D

Is this mod .6 compatible?

If he copied it, of course.

Wait, Digi, did peaceman get permission from you to make this mod?

In the file it says how. You can add $ to the direct message file and it will read the loop messages file again

i want to ask if it's possible to make that plugin will re-read loop messages file, so i can make changes to it whenever i want without restarting server?

thanks for that change)

I changed it :)

Yep, those are shared between mods.

Is it the PACKET_MSG variable?

You should change the packet ID to a different unique number so it doesn't interfere with other mods (specifically my chat history mod which you copied it from) and vice-versa.

thank you <3
