RandomTips Announcer

RandomTips is an auto announcer that was creating out of the ideas for random tips and facts.

Whilst administering new players on our server I would manually type out a tip with a silly random number for example:

'ProTip#2352: Didnt make member rank? Its probably not your awful build.'
'ProTip#302: You can deny idiots from you plot with /plotme deny <idiots name>'

and so RandomTips was born.

RandomTips allows server owners and admins to setup announcements for specific worlds, to help new users learn tips or to just simply inform them.

Features

  • Multiworld support.
  • Custom prefix for each world.
  • A global announcer.
  • Random tip numbers (just for fun).
  • Add and remove messages ingame.
  • Stop and start announcements ingame.
  • Players can ignore a specific announer.
