c_announce() can't cancel the periodic message


Recommended Posts

Hi all, no matter what I try with "c_announce()" the periodic message just keep sending won't stop?

The periodic message was set to 10 seconds interval.

Am I doing anything wrong or is it a bug?

 

Thanks!

c_announce() is used to broadcast a message once.

For example c_announce("Hello World!") sends the Message "Hello World!" to everyone on the Server once.

Therefore I assume you have some other program, mod or script running that keeps sending your message every 10 seconds. And unless you reconfigure that, or delete it, it won't stop sending that message.

Sorry I should be more precise.

 

I was using c_announce("test",10) for that, which will make the server send this announcement every 10 seconds. However issuing another c_annonuce() command suppose to stop it?

 

Thanks!

Ah, gotcha, I didn't know about the periodic sending function.

From what I've read up on now, c_announce() (without anything in the bracket) is supposed to stop it. If this doesn't work, it might be a bug.

As a workaround could also try rebooting your DST server, as that might stop the timer as well.

Yes, the the periodic sending function is actually pretty good saves me from adding another mod.

I guess it is bug then, it suppose to stop the periodic sending haha.

Yes, or just send the interval to something max to reduce the rate or reboot for now I guess.

Anyway, thanks!

BTW, do you know how to report bug to Klei team?

Thanks again!
