[INFO/CHAT] Announcer v1.2.0 - Automaticly announce messages [1060]

title is missing plugin version

fixed that

Managed to miss the second N in "announcer/announce" every time. I'm not trying to be nitpicky here, but it's even in the plugin title. And it's not a purely aesthetic difference. Imagine a player hypothetically telling another player, verbally, about this plugin. The other, spelling it correctly, would search Bukkit.org and not find it. It might also lead to confusion with people trying to set permissions or use commands if they somehow glossed over the typo without noticing.
If this title spelling choice is completely intentional, please disregard all the above except the word "verbally" and just pretend I randomly decided to post the word "verbally" for no reason at all. And this disclaimer.

Fail, I'll fix that when I add SuperPerms support

New version released!

Changes:
Version 1.1.0

• Fixed typo (anounce -> announce)
• Added SuperPerms support
• Fixed the commands not being registered if there are no scheduled messages

Watch out!
The permission nodes have changed with this release!
Anouncer.anounce -> Announcer.announce
Anouncer.reloadanouncer -> Announcer.reloadannouncer

seems cool.

Testing.
Also... is interval minutes or seconds or???

ALSO! i cant get it to work i have file setted up like this:

Code:

&awww.serverjanttux.blogspot.com
&aBuild RB 1060#
&aRemember report if you see someone grieffing!
&aSoon 24/7!
&aDo not ask "can i get admin/op"

and it says : - The given requested announcement is not available!

EDIT5 : LOL sorry for all this stuff... but its working but they all come in same time

can I ask what this plugin will do that AutoAnnouncer dosen't ? http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/in...5-send-ads-announcements-messages-1000.11955/

My plugin is lightweight, simple to configure and uses files (which I prefer to config entries).
I developed it for the needs of our server and I decided to release it here

@JanTTuX: The plugins supports different time units:

t = ticks
s = seconds (1s = 20t)
m = minutes (1m = 60s)
h = hours (1h = 60m)
d = days (1d = 24h)

if no unit is given, the plugin assumes m (minutes)

Oh and you have to make a file for every announcement

How to make it go on a new line?

Edit: herp derp, got it! THANKS ALOT FOR THIS AWESOME PLUGIN!
AutoAnnouncer never worked for me.

Can I suggest a permissions node to disable the announces for whoever has the node?

I don't take feature requests for this plugin, because I'm developing it for my server

Please make it so we can change the tag and also add a command were you can broadcast in game like /announce [message]

all that is already possible, didn't you read the thread?

Is is possible to add this

Rang A:
message 1 + 2

Rang B:
message 3 + 4

Rang C:
message 5+6

So that new players get an announce to register, registered users get another message

I'll think about it, but it my take a week or to as i'm currently finalizing a bigger project. And there won't be any releases from me til a recommended build of craftbukkit is released.

Might be a silly question but does this support colors? and what kinda of codes if so? Thanks. I am really liking this plugin for its easy flexability and extremely low ram usage. Colors would be nice though. But if that means adding a bunch of code. forget it. whites fine with me.

Thanks again for this plugin.

normal color codes: &0, &1, &2, ..., &f
as I wrote in the thread:

btw: i'll set up a devbukkit page this weekend, there will be more information

Sorry I must have missed that.. and wow yea.. right there on the 3rd line DUH.. im sorry. jeez.

no problem

what code is green
and where do i need to put it (can you show an example)
thnx already for the great plugin

Code:

[&2Parallel-Universe&f]

&9Denkt dran euch für das Donnerstags &eEvent &9im &eForum
&9anzumelden!
&9Anmeldungen werden bis &eDonnerstag um 18 Uhr &9entgegen
&9genommen

That's one of the messages from my server

the color codes can be found by googling "minecraft color codes"

I'm currently cleaning up and improving the plugin
A new release and a BukkitDev page come with the next RB of CraftBukkit

If your still working on this plugin, may i suggest you add this feature:

When noone is currently connected to the server the Announcer doesnt announce, Announcements.

Just because this spams the crap outta my server log and if i was trying to find something it would that forever. Cheers

yeah I'm still working on it. currently I have some issues with the stupid new configuration API, but when i've fixed that, this will be added

The plugin is currently awaiting approval for BukkitDev:

http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/announcr/

Once it is approved you can download the new version 1.2 from the files page there.

Changes:

• Removed Permissions support (use SuperPerms!)
• added chat colors to commands
• reworked config handling
• moved automated and manuel announcements in one directory

The last change is actually a breaking change for current setups.
All files have to be placed in the announcements folder which will be created on the first startup.
The configuration has a new entry which specifies which announcements should be announced automaticly.
That way you can also specify the order in which the announcements are posted.

For any feature requests or bug reports please open an issue on my Github page: https://github.com/quickwango/Announcer/issues

nice plugin! i prefer files to config lines as well. however...
You give absolutely no examples in any of your information on explaining on how to set up the config file.

Code:

interval: '15'
instantStart: false
debug: false
directory: plugins/Announcer/announcements
announcements: []

You dont even put an example of the time interval. you put a number with no T,S,M..
how am i supposed to know that it goes 15t or 15m. what if i tried m15 or 15 m, which i did.
I dont want to have to play guessing games to complete a config.
and on top of that you dont give any examples on how to put the adverisements in with correct spacing.
im getting errors all over the place. and i know what im doing i run servers and edit configs/ add plugins daily and the informatin you provide with your plugin is very lacking when it comes to setting it up.
i dont want to have to read every single post on this thread just to figure out my problems!
EDIT: with the information provided this is how far i got:

Code:

interval: '15'
instantStart: false
debug: false
directory: plugins/Announcer/announcements
announcements: []

nowhere.
