Introduction

Automated server messages are an easy way to send important information directly to your players in-game: server rules, event announcements, tips, or reminders about your Discord, at regular intervals and without an admin needing to be online.

There’s no built-in dashboard feature for this on your VPS. You can set up recurring messages either with a game plugin or mod, or with the Windows Task Scheduler, which sends a command to the server at set intervals. Both options only work if the game provides a suitable command or scripting interface. This guide explains how things work for Nightingale.
