Parameters

  • "text"

Info

Sends "text" as server message to all players. It will be displayed in the chat area of the screen (bottom left).
You can start "text" with an RGB color code "©RRRGGGBBB" to change its color. (use a colorpicker to get the values)

It's also possible to display the text at the center of the screen. Just end "text" with "@C" (read: at center) to do so!

Sample 1: Showing a text
msg("hello, world")


Sample 2: Showing a green text (note that there is no space behind the color tag)
msg("©000255000This message is green!")


Sample 3: Showing a text at the center of the screen
msg("This text is displayed at the center@C")


Note: You can prefix the text with "UTF-8:" to pass encoded UTF-8 strings to this function. Use this tool to encode strings!
