I made this for my private server, but i think it will be useful for other people, so here it is!

This is a pretty basic mod that puts chat messages in a set interval, allowing you to create "announcements" and the like.

Repo/Downloads: https://github.com/Admicos/minetest-announce (Click the "Clone or Download" button to get a zip)
License: Public Domain / Unlicense
Dependencies: none

Upcoming Features:
  • None so far, suggest one below!

The mod is pretty simple so it should work with any folder name, but i used "announce" so try renaming if it doesn't work.
The only file you need to edit is config.lua.

The mod has been updated, it now includes a way to randomize announcements, and is heavily commented, to possibly help people get into modding Minetest.

I tried to find a coloring function, but it seems like there isn't any yet. (If there is, I'd be glad to know)
