Center Message on Armagetron Servers

Post by Tank Program »

I realize this may sound stupid, but I really can't find anything on how to make those messages that appear between ever round, or how ever ofter it is. Can someone say how they make that appear on their server? Or just if they know how to do that, please post.

ASCII Art sucks butt, but that's just my opinion.
You know what's worse than ascii art text? Bad ascii art text.

Flood on. :P

Tank: You mean the messages between rounds like the Bastard Operator From Hell messages, right? I don't know of how to do them but thought I might help you clarify.

hmm ok who wants to make a patch so we can all use images in the armagetron chat instead of ascii art? (j/k) :roll:

Code: Select all

__  __  ___  ________   ______   __   _  ___  __  __
\ \ \ \ \  \ \_  __  \ /  ____/ /  /_/ \ \  \ \ \ \ \
/ / / / /  / /  / /  / \___  \  \___  _/ /  / / / / /
\/  \/  \_/  \_/  \_/ /______/     /__/  \_/  \/  \/
:P

Maybe possible, it would just slow down the server uploading the image... As to my original question of how to do it, aparently there is an everytime.cfg where you can put these things, so I have answered the question. Also, I've edited the src, etc, and made the TPR version, which does it too, but neater ;). (At least I think it's cooler ;))
