What function do I use for a Serverwide announcement?

[GhostOfGod]

There are a couple different ways to go about it. I think the most common would be to make an NPC named "Server" and put it in some inaccessible area. Then just have it shout stuff when needed:


void main()
{
    object oServer = GetObjectByTag("SERVER_NPC");
    string sMessage = "THE SERVER WILL RESET IN 5 MINUTES.";
    AssignCommand(oServer, ActionSpeakString(sMessage, TALKVOLUME_SHOUT));
}


You could also just send a message to all current players by looping through them and using the SendMessage function:

void main()
{
    object oPC = GetFirstPC();
    while (GetIsObjectValid(oPC))
    {
        SendMessageToPC(oPC, "The server will reset in 5 minutes.");
        oPC = GetNextPC();
    }
}


Hope it helps,

Brilliant. Thank you GoG!

Also just to point out that the first option is also nice if you need some server shouts on the fly. You can just have a DM possess the "Server" NPC and shout stuff at will too.
