Random MOTD color not working

im trying to make the motd be color changing here is the code im using

Code:

    int i = 1;
    @EventHandler
    public void onServerListPing(ServerListPingEvent event){
    String color = "" + i;
    if(i < 10){
    event.setMotd("§" + color + "Test");
    i = i+1;
    } else {
    i = 1;
    }
    }

it just says whatever motd is in the properties

You probably want to make a config file
There they can set the motds they want to alternate

Then take that list and assign number calues to them
Then create a random and have the max be the last number value (add one if not arraylist)

Then set the motd to one of the conig values every time

this is for personal use and i will have a config though this is just a test

Use this method somewhere in your class:

Code:

    public static int getRandomNumberInRange(int Max, int Min) {
        return Min + (int)(Math.random() * ((Max - Min) + 1));
        }

Then do this:

Code:

 @EventHandler
    public void onServerListPing(ServerListPingEvent event){
    event.setMotd("§" + getRandomNumberInRange(10, 1) + "Test");
    }
