In-Game Timed Announcements not working?
Hello! Wondering if someone might be able to provide some assistance here with the in-game timed announcements. I have them enabled, the times set accordingly, yet it's not showing. Any ideas?

This is how it's written out.

"Public Automatic Game Time Announcements": {
"Announcement List (Show at this in game time : Announcements to show)": {
"18:00": [
"Prepare yourselves...the raiders are upon us."
],
"06:00": [
"Dawn breaks, peace returns to the server."
]
},
"Banner Color": "Grey",
"Enabled": true,
"Text Color": "Red"

Hi, can you post your entire config please? You can shove it on pastebin or in the "insert code sample" button.

Can you do /announcetest and see if you can see the announcement.

Then do /announceto yourself and see if you can see the announcement.

Let me know what the outcome of the above is.

Hi Joe, I ended up swapping the plugin out as I found a simpler mean. However, when I did /announcetest, I could not see the announcement, nor with /announceto.

I've attached my config in a code sample here for your review in case anyone else continues to have the issue.

I loaded your config on my private server running latest version of the plugin, Rust and Umod. Everything works fine.

Are you running the latest version and have not modified it in any way?

Can you post a snippet of your console when you reload the plugin?

I'm on the proper version us rust, umod, and GUIAnnouncements. This is what my console shows on reload:

Ok so there's no spooky stuff showing in console... can you rename your config and reload the plugin to generate a new fresh one, then try announcing to yourself and test announcement again? Your config works fine on my server so this shouldn't make a difference but worth a try???

Is there anything in console when you do the announcements?

What other plugins do you run?
