[Mod] Basic Announce System [announce]

[Mod] Basic Announce System [announce]

Postby admicos » Wed Mar 01, 2017 8:53 pm

I made this for my private server, but i think it will be useful for other people, so here it is!

This is a pretty basic mod that puts chat messages in a set interval, allowing you to create "announcements" and the like.

Repo: https://gitlab.com/admicos/minetest-announce
ContentDB: https://content.minetest.net/packages/admicos/announce/
License: MIT
Dependencies: none

Upcoming Features:
  • None so far, suggest one below!

The only file you need to edit is config.lua, color reference over at http://ess.khhq.net/mc/ (Not my site, but the coloring system is the same)

The mod has been updated, it now includes a way to randomize announcements, and is heavily commented, to possibly help people get into modding Minetest.

I tried to find a coloring function, but it seems like there isn't any yet. (If there is, I'd be glad to know)

As I lost the original code of this mod because the GitHub org getting deleted, I decided to quickly reimplement it, in case it's still useful.

New code available here: https://gitlab.com/admicos/minetest-announce

I'll edit the topic shortly

Please consider changing the license to something less problematic, like MIT or ISC. See my other posts about choosing licenses.

It just sends chat messages at an interval, how can I get a screenshot of that?
It's now on ContentDB https://content.minetest.net/packages/admicos/announce/

It's such an simple mod that I really didn't want to "reserve" any rights to it, but I guess MIT should work too.
I changed it.

People tend to not download mods with screenshots, you could just show a screenshot of some colored warning for example. This would help in your marketing :P
