S A chat message, like sm_say. It supports the following colors: {DEFAULT}, {TEAM}, {GREEN} and {LIGHTGREEN}. {TEAM} and {LIGHTGREEN} unfortunately don't work together in a single advertisement, so it's one or the other. For example: {GREEN}Current {LIGHTGREEN}Map: {DEFAULT}{CURRENTMAP} T A top-left message, like sm_tsay. It supports one of the following colors: {WHITE}, {RED}, {GREEN}, {BLUE}, {YELLOW}, {PURPLE}, {CYAN}, {ORANGE}, {PINK}, {OLIVE}, {LIME}, {VIOLET} and {LIGHTBLUE}. You can omit the color if you just want the normal color. For example to have an orange message, set text to: {ORANGE} Text here Multiple types per advertisement are allowed, so you can show a single advertisement in multiple places at the same time.

Is it possible to increase amount of characters in the advertising message (text type "S") ?

From first post
\n for newlines (confirmed to work for C, M and S messages)

You're still limited to 254 bytes (Or less, depending on the message).

How can i use UTF8 based advert texts with this plugin? Now if i try to use UTF8 based characters, the adverts shown only 1-2-3 times, then never not.

Useful if you're running multiple servers from one installation, and want to use different advertisements per server. sm_advertisements_interval (def 30) Amount of seconds between advertisements. sm_advertisements_reload Server command to reload the advertisements from advertisements.txt. but you'll always be a noob son, youre from QLD like I am. You probably live next door for all I know.

well you can add a autoconfig line after cvars declarations

public OnPluginStart() {
    CreateConVar("sm_advertisements_version", PL_VERSION, "Display advertisements", FCVAR_PLUGIN|FCVAR_SPONLY|FCVAR_REPLICATED|FCVAR_NOTIFY);
    g_hEnabled        = CreateConVar("sm_advertisements_enabled",  "1",                  "Enable/disable displaying advertisements.");
    g_hFile           = CreateConVar("sm_advertisements_file",     "advertisements.txt", "File to read the advertisements from.");
    g_hInterval       = CreateConVar("sm_advertisements_interval", "30",                 "Amount of seconds between advertisements.");
    
AutoExecConfig(true, "advertisment");
.
.
.

}

here you go ver0.5.5 creates its own cfg

[sinblaster]

What you explain is OK but in this case actually misses an important cvar which is
sm_advertisements_reload "1"

So for anyone that was taking this on face value they would loose out.
