pushing an updated server message to online clients

Post by babblebab » Thu Oct 16, 2014 12:38 am

I think I remember somebody inquiring about this before, but I couldn't find the thread and I'm not sure if they ever figured it out.

How would one go about pushing the current server message to online clients without having to type /servmsg. Sort of like how Square does it when they're going to be performing maintenance.
Come to think of it, that message may actually be independent of the server message. I poked around messagespecial and messagebasic but it seems to be independent of those as well.

@updateservermessage I know updates your current server message even when the server is online, but it still requires that you type /servmsg to see any changes.

Appreciate any insight.

If you do:

Code: Select all

#Message here
Everybody logged in gets a purple text system message. That what you mean?
