    Code:
    class Broadcaster:
    def __init__(self):
        self.Title = "Broadcaster"
        self.Description = "Easy Broadcasting"
        self.Author = "NoSharp"
        self.Version = V(0, 1, 0)    def Init(self):
        command.AddChatCommand("Broadcast %s", self.Plugin, "B")
           
    def B(self, server, cmd, args):
        rust.SendChatMessage(server, "%s")

    First, you'd need to set an actual chat command, as "Broadcast %s" wouldn't be valid. A valid example could be "broadcast" or similar.

    Next, you can get the chat from the args, such as args[0] or by joining all the args together (it's a list essentially.)

    so like:
    class Broadcaster:
    def __init__(self):
    self.Title = "Broadcaster"
    self.Description = "This example illustrates how to use a basic configuration file"
    self.Author = "NoSharp"
    self.Version = V(0, 1, 0)

    def Init(self):
    command.AddChatCommand("Broadcast", self.Plugin, "B")

    def B(self, server, cmd, args):
    rust.SendChatMessage(server, "args[0]")

    args[0] is not meant to be a string, remove the "". This will not actually send a chat message to the server, for that, you need the rust.BroadcastChat(string chatname, string message) method.

    but without the "" around args[0]

    Your "server" variable is actually referencing the BasePlayer that is running the command (you). I'd change it back to player to avoid confusion. ;)
