Announcement Mod

  • Server-only mod that cycles through configured messages and broadcasts them to all players on a set cadence.
  • Configuration file config.json is created in the mod's data folder with CadenceSeconds (seconds between messages) and Messages (array of announcement strings). Empty or non-positive cadence disables scheduling; blank messages are skipped.
  • Announcements run on the server scheduler and advance through the list in order each interval.
  • In-game admin command /announcements reload reloads the configuration and restarts the scheduler so edits take effect without restarting the server.
  • Logs warn if no messages are configured, cadence is invalid, or the universe is unavailable when a broadcast would occur.
  • Current scope: broadcasts chat messages only; there is no randomization or per-world targeting.
