8.True/False=false

8.Time=10
9.True/False=false
9.StringToInform=Place your text here
9.Time=10

*Note: Not all of the settings above is needed if you don't want to post 9 diffrent messages.

Settings explanation:

DisplayTime=5 - How long you want your message to be displayed in seconds.
Time=10 - How often you want to send the message in seconds.
True/False=false - Toggle message on and off with true/false. Set to false if not used.
StringToInform= - Fill in your message here.

After setting up all the settings go ingame and spawn the Informer structure and place it. This structure is invisible, have no collision and does not interfer with enemy foundations. If you manage to place more than one of this structure use one of the DestroyInformers item to remove all of the informers on the map, then place a new one.

Spawn commands:

The Informer Structure:
cheat giveitem "Blueprint'/Game/Mods/Informer/PrimalItemStructure_Informer.PrimalItemStructure_Informer'" 1 0 false

Destroy All Informers:
cheat giveitem "Blueprint'/Game/Mods/Informer/PrimalItem_DestroyInformers.PrimalItem_DestroyInformers'" 1 0 false

SUGGESTION: Random Message (1 of 9).

How the settings should be to display 1 message of 9 for 60 seconds every 120 seconds ?.
I try all combinations, first message gets spammed, last one display like once per day.

@Trev Add the settings listed above and edit the three lines starting with "1.". Set True/false to true. StringtoInform should be something like "The server restarts every day at 11 AM and 11 PM" and then at last fill in how often you want that message to be sent on the server in seconds.

@SnowAxe - Does it post anything at all if you only place the structure while not adding in the settings to your GUS file? Feel free to add me on steam!
