# Plugin Author: cydev-id
# Plugin Version: 1.0.2
#
# HOW IT WORKS:
# This plugin will display announcements with an independent cycle for each world.
#
# 1. A world with specific messages (e.g., 'world_the_end') will have a cycle of:
# (Global Message -> Specific End Msg 1 -> Global Message -> ...)
#
# 2. A world without specific messages will ONLY cycle through global messages.
#
# ===================================================================
# DO NOT CHANGE THIS.
config-version: 2
# Interval in SECONDS between each announcement for a world.
interval: 60
# Prefix appearing before each announcement line.
# Set to "" to disable.
prefix: "&e[&l!&r&e] &r"
# (NEW) --- SETTINGS SECTION (Feature #3) ---
settings:
# Set to true to pick a random message from all available messages (global + specific) each cycle.
# Set to false to use the default sequential cycle (default).

# These messages will be part of the cycle in ALL worlds.

# HOW TO USE THIS FILE:
#
# - Use the '&' symbol for color codes (e.g., &a for green, &l for bold).
# - YAML is sensitive to spacing. Do not use tabs; use spaces.
# Indentation is crucial for the structure.

# ===================================================================
# ANNOUNCEMENTS SECTION
# ===================================================================
#
# HOW IT WORKS:
# This plugin uses an intelligent, independent cycle system for each server.
#
# 1. A server with its own specific messages (e.g., 'survival') will create a
# unique cycle: (Global Message -> Specific Survival Msg 1 -> Specific Survival Msg 2 -> Global Message -> ...)
#
# 2. A server WITHOUT specific messages (e.g., 'lobby') will only cycle
# through the global messages: (Global Message 1 -> Global Message 2 -> Global Message 1 -> ...)
#
# Each server's cycle runs independently and does not affect the others.
#
announcements:
# --- GLOBAL ANNOUNCEMENTS ---
# These messages will be part of the cycle for EVERY server.
# To make a message global, add "all" to its 'servers' list.
# Example 1: Standard CHAT message (default)
- servers:
- "all"
lines:
- "&eDon't forget to vote for our server every day!"
- "&fUse the command &b/vote&f to get rewards."
# Example 2: Global ACTIONBAR message with a SOUND (Features #2 & #5)
- servers:
- "all"
type: "ACTIONBAR" # (NEW) Type: CHAT, ACTIONBAR, or TITLE
sound: "entity.player.levelup" # (NEW) Sound (use Minecraft key, e.g., 'block.note_block.pling')
lines:
- "&dCheck out our webstore for exclusive ranks and items!"
# Note: ACTIONBAR only uses the first line.
# --- SERVER-SPECIFIC ANNOUNCEMENTS ---
# These messages will ONLY be shown to players on the specified servers.
# They will be inserted into the cycle after a global message.
# Example 3: TITLE message for Skyblock/Oneblock (Feature #2)
- servers:
- "oneblock"
- "skyblock" # You can target multiple servers with the same message block.
type: "TITLE"
lines:
- "&aWelcome to the Sky!" # Line 1 is the main TITLE
- "&fType &b/is&f to start your adventure." # Line 2 is the SUBTITLE
- servers:
- "oneblock"
- "skyblock"
lines:
- "&bLooking for a team? Use &a/team&b to cooperate with others!"
# Example 4: Standard CHAT message for Survival
- servers:
- "survival"
lines:
- "&cWatch out! PvP is enabled in the wilderness."
- "&fClaim your land using a Golden Shovel to stay safe."
