TidyCast

Timed chat announcements. That's it — done well.

Put your messages in a list, pick an interval, done. No 40 extra features.

Config

interval-seconds: 300        # every 5 minutes
order: sequential            # or: random

messages:
  - "&6[Info]&7 Vote for the server to earn rewards!"
  - - "&6[Info]&7 Join our Discord:"     # a list = one multi-line message
    - "&b   discord.gg/example"

• Placeholders: {online} {max}
• Colors: & codes (&a green, &6 gold, &l bold …)
• Random mode never repeats the same message twice in a row

Install

Drop the jar in plugins/, restart, edit plugins/TidyCast/config.yml, run /tidycast reload. Requires Paper 1.21.x / 26.x (matching jar).

Command & permission

Command	Permission	Default
/tidycast reload	tidycast.reload	OP

Safe by design

Owns exactly one repeating task (its own) and broadcasts chat messages — nothing else is read or touched. Only network activity: one startup update check (Modrinth public API) + anonymous bStats stats.
