[Guide] to autoannounce the kills on your server...

[MrAnGeL]

I know that there are many others thinks to announce the kills,but i think that this way i better Tongue

 

That's a patch to autoannounce when a player kills another..and i believe thats its better to use it on a pvp server..(thats my opionion)

 

Options allowed on pvp.properties:

AnnounceAllKills [true|false] : Every time that a player kills another player an announcement will appear. Doesn't matter if it is a Pk kill or a PvP kill.

(Announcement: Player A killed Player B)

 

AnnouncePvPKills [true|false]: Every time that a player win in a PvP fight an announcement will appear.

(Announcement: Player A hunted Player B)

 

AnnouncePkKills [true|false]: Every time that a player kill another and becomes a Pk (or increases its pk points) an announcement will appear.

(Announcement: Player A has assassinated Player B )

 

* Note that you can enable AnnouncePvPKills and AnnouncePkKills at the same time, but if AnnounceAllKills is enabled, AnnouncePvPKills and AnnouncePkKills will get disabled automatically.

 

* Note that AwardPKKillPVPPoint affects to the announcement (PvP). If the AwardPKKillPVPPoint option is disabled, when a good character kills a chaotic character the announcement won't appear.

 

* Feel free to change the messages as you want
