Boss Bar Message
Boss Bar Message
Boss Bar Message provides an easy to understand way of sending messages to players via the boss bar. Administrators can communicate alerts and messages to players in an unobtrusive manner, keeping the chat free for player messages. Here are a few examples of what a Boss Bar Message could look like.
As you can see, Boss Bar Message provides a very lightweight way of communicating with players.

Metrics
This plugin uses the bStats metrics system.
By default, bStats sends the following data:
- Your server's randomly generated UUID
- The amount of players on your server
- The online mode of your server
- The bukkit version of your server
- The java version of your system (e.g. Java 8)
- The name of your OS (e.g. Windows)
- The version of your OS
- The architecture of your OS (e.g. amd64)
- The system cores of your OS (e.g. 8)
- bStats-supported plugins
- Plugin version of bStats-supported plugins
To disable metrics, simply set enabled to false in the config.yml file located in the bStats plugin folder.
More information available here.
Roadmap
A few of the upcoming features:
- Animated messages in the boss bar!
- Only messages to users with a specific permission.
- More flags!
Plugin Dont work at all, 0 STARS!!! NOT RECOMMENED!
Does it support multiple lines? I want it has 3 lines in a boss bar.
great plugin, would you be able to add so even players who log in after you typed the command can see the boss bar?
HELP!!!
How do i make it so it automatically does different ones.
For example:
/bm broadcast s:10 c:blue t:solid &bWelcome to the server
#then when thats done, the next one comes
/bm broadcast s:10 c:yellow t:solid &bThere are currently %server_online% players online
#Then after that it repeats back to the start
There's currently no way to do this within the plugin.
Thanks for the suggestion, though! It's something I plan on adding in the future. :)

@Sleepy33
I don't think so. It doesn't work for me.
@l0rdrav3n
Get Essentials.
I this plug in going to updated to 1.9? or 1.10?
Is there a way to bind a boss bar locally to a block, say a beacon? So that local areas can have their own message, without withers?
