Better Broadcaster 2.2.2
Automatically Broadcast messages across your Spigot Server
Updated for Spigot / Paper 1.13.2 - 1.17
BetterBroarcaster is the best choice for automatic server announcements
I have been maintaining this plugin for personal use since it was abandoned on bukkit back in 2014, Over the years people from other servers have asked me where to get a good automatic broadcaster that simply uses chat, with a custom delay and in a none random or even random order.. But a lot of the modern ones don't seem to just have these basic features.
To help anyone needing a basic chat announcer.. This is the Best choice! Its simple, lightweight, has no limit on announcements and my personal favorite feature, it uses the dollar symbol ($) instead of &, this makes it much easier to Wright your sentences in color and be able to use & inbetween. Color and formatting codes
Below is a screenshot of the console showing the 4 example messages.
Below is a basic example of what you can do
- Very lightweight.
- Use automatic broadcasts to inform your players about your website, voting page, or any other information.
- Broadcast as many messages accross the server as you like
- Broadcast at a interval that you configure
- Uses "$" rather than "&" makeing it easier to use "&"
- Broadcast in any minecraft supported color you like (using $)
- No limit to the length of your broadcasts
- Broadcast in a randomized order or in the set order
- Place the 'BetterBroadcast.jar' file in your plugins folder
- Enable the plugin (or start the server) to generate default config file and config folder
- Open 'plugins/betterbroadcaster/config.yml' in a text editor
- Edit the config to your liking (see Configuration for more info)
- do "/bb reload" in game or "bb reload" in console to reload the config
