Broadcasts
The broadcast module allows you to send a message to all players at any given point in the match.
Inside the broadcast tag you may specify either a <alert> or a <tip> message tag with an after="" attribute.
This attribute is required and specifies how long after the match is started the broadcast is shown.
The text in broadcasts can be formatted by using Text Formatting.
note
This module should only be used to show important information that is specific and unique to the map. It should not be used for generic server-related messages.
