Announcer
Announcer [v1.7.4]
Announcer is a very simple plugin, which only does what's its name told us. It automatically sends a broadcast out of a list controlled by a schedule.
Features:-
- Sends Scheduled Broadcast to all Players
- Easy to configure by 'config.yml' or ingame with the '/announce' or '/acc' command.
- Supports chat colors and newlines with &n.
- Supports executing commands inside Announcements. (Like "Now it will turn day!&n/time day")

I agree. Any time frame on 1.8 version?
@Deckerzmc
Great plugin! have been using it for months!
But could you recompile it for 1.8 / java 8 perhaps? I would really like a more optimized build :)
Thank you!
I love this plugin! I originally used AutoAnnouncer, but Deckerz-Announcer has way more features and can be configured in-game, unlike AutoAnnouncer!
I can't seem to get the newline to work, can someone show me an example of how the newline character is supposed to be used?
As a suggestion, I think the ability to create a suffix for announcements would be cool. It would be easier to create announcements that really stand out.
Could somebody explains why /acc say DO run commands using console sender? E.G. /acc say /stop; /acc say /sudo player suicide
@Cooljack19
Wherever you want to make a new line, add \n, so you could do:
Hello this is EnderCraft bla bla bla \n sausages are nice
and that would come out as:
Hello this is EnderCraft bla bla bla sausages are nice
There is a bug where the announcement goes to the next line half way through a word O_O so like it will say:
Hello this is EnderCraft bla bla bla saus ages are nice
How can I fix this?

Negate the permission node
Is there a way for a player to turn off these announcements? I get several complaints from regular players that the announcements annoy them.
In 1.5, the '&n' variable adds the prefix to the newline, is there a way to stop this or is it a bug? I've used the newline function in other plugins so URL's don't get cut in half and they look good, but adding the prefix when I do a newline clearly doesn't.
I can't use ':' either, otherwise the config just resets itself.
thanks for these plugin
@Deckerzmc
Sounds awesome!
@Ceees2
I am probably going to rebuild this so there is a plugin system for the plugin. So i can add feature that certain people request as a separate dependency and that way people can customize the core of the plugin!
Maybe a cool idea to add a feature which lets you announce an announcement after x amount of chat messages?
@Eria8
You're sure you're stopping the server, editing the file, saving the file, starting the server?
What exactly is happening? Is it still broadcasting the default messages in your server? If that is happening despite the fact that you have written other messages in your config it means you've made an error somewhere.
Make sure all your messages are formatted correctly, starting and ending with a ' and make sure there are no ' inside the message.
@Deckerzmc
Even when I edit and save it with the server off, it still resets every time the server starts back up again...
All you need to do is setup the plugin from in game using the commands.
This is what i did.
@MrJellycakeGaming
Save the config before you restart or edit while the server is off
When I delete the default announcements and add a new one and restart the server, the default ones appear again and the ones I made are gone. How can I change this?
