Is there a way to let a "hint" message be shown longer than just 1 Second?

Can I use more than one color in one message?

Hello, I am one of the many people who would really love to see functionality to randomly pick which advertisement to display. It's something I've wanted to see done for a long time, I think I even offered to throw someone some money for this functionality (I plan to just include funny quotes from like stand-up comedians, and memes and pieces of trivia). It would really make my day if someone could include a clean easy way to do this (display a random advertisement).

Honestly $15 to the guy who can figure this out if you're down.

I made the edits in this a while back for my server (Random advertisements seems better, less predictable for regulars). I've attached the source and compile to this post.

You can also !advertise 5 to show the advertisement 6th in your list of advertisements

I can't remember what else I added as I said, was a while ago, you can read through the source if you like, I've probably put in a few stupid comments to remind me of stuff, or just stupid comments because that's what I used to throw in my code.

If you want to shoot me the $15, can add me http://steamcommunity.com/id/SimplyJpk/ , won't turn down coin as I'm busy studying full time atm, however, if you get use out of it, I was glad to simply help out.

As far as I remember, it doesn't require any additional configs or setup, should work with your current config.

Take it easy,
Jpk.

My attached plugin a few posts earlier works, I have 3 servers running it. Are you sure you added it and not the default one? The original plugin has no support for random ads, so long as you've set it up the same as the default one, my attached smx should work fine.

Doesn't work for me either, nothing happens

I've installed the plugin on my TF2 server and advertisements are happening just fine. But when using the "chat" type, instead of seeing text in the color specified in the text, it spits out the color HEX code. I'm only using {green} and {default} in one instance.

Though come to think of it, only the {green} spit out a hex code and {default} did not.

"Advertisements"
{
    "1"
    {
        "chat"          "Check out our Discord chat server!\n{green}hxxps://example.com{default}"
    }
    "2"
    {
        "chat"          "Come join our Steam Group for announcements about our server!\n{green}hxxp://example.com{default}"
    }
    "3"
    {
        "chat"          "(Redacted message about server using no colors)"
    }
    "4"
    {
        "chat"          "(Redacted message for members using no colors)"
        "flags"         "a"
    }
}

URL and some text redacted.

Any thoughts?
