Is there a way to disable broadcasts client side?

[bWolfie 138]

Hello again,

 

I tried using the bc_woe flag on an announcement and then turning 'Display WOE Info' off on my client, the announcement still showed.

 

Is there a way to have it so players can choose whether or not to receive a type of announcement?

Afaik, eAmod has an alternative script command to broadcast battlegrounds messages. I don't remember what was the name of that command, but allows players to don't show those announces in ther chats. I never tested by myself, only read about it long time ago.

 

However, if you don't want to create new script commands, you can use channelmes() command to send messages to channels and create a way to allow players to disable it through @channel command.

 

To know more about it please read documentation:

 

*channelmes("<#channel>", "<message>")

This command will send a message to the specified chat channel.

The sent message will not include any character's names.

For special channels, such as #map and #ally, the attached RID's map or guild
will be used.

If the channel doesn't exist (or, in the case of a character-specific channel,
no RID is attached), false will be returned. In case of success, true is
returned.

Hope this help you
