Motd GUI

PaiN submitted a new resource:

Motd GUI - Simple Motd on the screen.

Read more about this resource...

 

add a timer to it man, and can you position it to be in the middle top of the screen?

 

Why a timer ?

 

Because I feel like motd should be something that appear once you enter the server and once the player finish reading it (timer) it'll disappear until the player relog

 

Its possible .. but thats why i added /motd command..

 

I like this idea! Is there a way to make it bigger and center the window? I created an image I want to show to people but it's too small to read the text

 

You will have to play with the lines 53 and 54.
Start with changing the a bit to learn how they work and then make the thing that you want.

 

I don't know C#, please check my code

Code:

// void Loaded()
timer.Once(30, () => CommunityEntity.ServerInstance.ClientRPCEx(new Network.SendInfo() { connection = player.net.connection }, null, "DestroyUI", "Motd"));// other
void OnPlayerSleepEnded(BasePlayer player)
    {
      string text = Config["Motd", "Message"].ToString();
            string title = Config["Motd", "Title"].ToString();
            CommunityEntity.ServerInstance.ClientRPCEx(new Network.SendInfo() { connection = player.net.connection }, null, "AddUI", json.Replace("{text}", text).Replace("{title}", title));      timer.Once(30, () => CommunityEntity.ServerInstance.ClientRPCEx(new Network.SendInfo() { connection = player.net.connection }, null, "DestroyUI", "Motd"));
    }

 

With a quick look.. yeah should work.

 

Oh my god, i get error

Code:

[Error] Failed to run a 30.00 timer in MotdGUI (NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object)
[Debug]   at Oxide.Plugins.MotdGUI+<OnPlayerSleepEnded>c__AnonStorey1.<>m__0 () [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 

 

Allrighty, I'll take a look and let you know if I manage to find it Dont know C#, Google will have to be my friend on this one

 

Just change the numbers.. you dont need to code anything.

 

I managed to center the image and make it look "okay"

(sorry for the weird quality, running it in windowed mode to do the testing)

Just need to find out how to auto close the window after x seconds and we're good to go!

 

Hello, how can I move the MOTD???
Please help

 

This is the edited code that shows the image like it does in my screenshot. You can replace it with the code in your MotdGUI.cs file.
Change the image URL by your own URL. Make the imagesize approx 1111x679 .
Sorry for the weird resolution, I'll have to do some more tests to make it appear in better quality.

NO!
I want move my MOTD screen!!!
HOW I CAN MAKE IT!!

 

Maybe do some testing by changing the anchormin anchormax values.

And there's no need for those screaming caps.

Sorry you will have to wait untill PaiN can help you, Im just trying to adjust the plugin to work with an image and no text.
[DOUBLEPOST=1437399301][/DOUBLEPOST]For those who are interested, this is the modified version I run on my server (screenshot: http://www.gameofstones.eu/ingame/screenshot.png):
It displays the image for 30 seconds, then the image disappears.

To adjust the image location:
- Change the URL in line 43

To adjust the timer:
- Change the timervalue (currently 30f) to anything you like (20 seconds will be 20f, etc...) on line 20, 64 and 79

This version still makes a config file but it's empty since no text is used.

You will have to "play" with the image sizes, I'm still looking for the perfect size (size in the screenshot is 1111x679)

 

What is the point of this? it only shows when the plugin is loaded, not when a player connects
