Announcement Script

[Kingly_Krab]

This script is pretty handy, you can use /broadcast or implement this script on an NPC and announce things to the entire server in a Green text, you could use this to announce events or just to notify people of something in a rather eye-popping text, rather than a bland yellow. It is rather simple, it utilizes quest::gmsay to send a message server wide, script below.

P.S. It is currently for GMs only, but you can just take out the status check if you want everyone to use it.

sub EVENT_SAY
{
if($status >= 200)
{
quest::gmsay("$name Announces: $text", 14, 1, 0, 0);
}
}

#we #color #text
in game can do the same thing

or alternatively for scripts, using quest::we(#color,"Text");
or quest::ze(#color,"Text"); (for zone only).

I know all of this, I just thought it was a pretty handy script, can't a man post a script in peace?

[Dunge0nMastr]

just seemed a bit wordy :P

Post away :D

Not everyone in the community quite understands the ins and outs of coding, thus why I posted this, some may not know all the commands but may know the basics of adding a script, but not modifying it, or nothing at all thus why I explained what it did, how you could use it, how you could modify it and how you could use /broadcast rather than this script. Just trying to simplify things for people, I know I hate getting something and having no idea what it's for, haha.
