[1.7.2] Multi-Line MOTD?

Hello,
I am updating my plugin to 1.7.2.
I have a custom MOTD system. What I am wondering is how I can do a multi-lined MOTD (I saw a lot of servers with these). I tried the "\n", but it is not working. The second line is not showing up.

 

You have to send those messages each one by one. If it's in a config file, you could maybe create a string list for that and loop through it.

 

Could you show me an example?

 

the config would look something like this

Code:

messages:
  - Message 1
  - Message 2
  - Message 3
  - Message 4
  - Message 5
  - Message 6

And then you would just simply need to

Code:java

List<String> messages = new ArrayList<String>();
messages = config.getStringList("messages");
for (String message : messages) {
  Bukkit.broadcast(message);
}

 

I am not using a config. I want to set the second line in my code, but how?

 

What he said

Bukkit.getServer().boradcastMessage("Line One");
Bukkit.getServer().boradcastMessage("Line Two");

 

Hoooooo, I know why! We are not even talking about the same thing!
I am talking of the MOTD in the ServerListPingEvent! :3

 

Ohhh. I thought you meant the one when you join the server that is sent to players.

Which one you mean with ServerListPingEvent. The one that stands underneath the Server? Don't think you can do it multiple lines. If you can do it then you probably need to add enough spaces at the end of the first message and basicly have it as one message

 

Indeed, it can have up to 2 lines in the motd. I am going to try the spaces.

 

Actually I think it takes a long String and wraps it around so just use a very long string instead.
