Simple Announcements

Gamemasters and administrators can broadcast announcement messages to all players, making it easy to share important information across the server.

Players without GM or admin permissions will receive an error message if they attempt to use the command.
Creating Announcements

To create an announcement, use:
!announcement Your message here
Or include a duration:
!announcement 30 Your message here

In this example, the message will be displayed to all players for 30 seconds. If no duration is specified, the message will be shown for the default time of 5 seconds.

You can also use the shorter alias command:
!ann
Event Announcements
To create an event announcement with a countdown timer, use:
!announcement event 60 Lets go crazy!
Or:
!ann event 60 Lets go crazy!
This will display a notification with a live 60-second countdown, making it perfect for events, restarts, or timed activities.
