[FeatureRequest] /vsay command to send messages out of console #23

Open Hutch79 opened 2 years ago

I would love to see a command to send messages in chat out of the console. My personal use case would be in a network wide chat, where a message is sent if a server shuts down and starts up, but there are for sure others as well where it could be handy to have such a command.

I thought something like /vsay [channel] Message could work.

Thanks for this grate plugin! I actually switched from Chatcontroll Red and hardly miss anything beside of the /vsay command ^^

This feature would definitely be useful !

Actually, the plugin already includes the /broadcast functionnality but it is only scoped to the local server where the command is used, it could be extended to be usable from console.

That would be also a good feature to be able to precise if the bcast should target the local server or the whole network : /broadcast <local/all> <message>. By the way, we could also imagine a settings in the plugin config to define the list of backend servers listening for global broadcasts to display it or not. (blacklist or whitelist mode, does not matter)

Finally, an other possibility would be to be able to run /<channel_prefix> <message> directly from the console in the network to be able to display a message as the server in a target channel. This could also do the trick to global broacast by the way.

Hop the dev will see your request and eventually implement it 😉
