There are three configurable messages which can be sent whenever someone joins the world. Each message can have a different colour and be completely clickable with an optional URL input. Any message config can also be left empty to prevent it from being sent.<\/p>\n<p>By default the messages are only sent to players joining a dedicated server, e.g. not a singleplayer world. This can however be toggled in the config.<br \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size:20px\">Configurable:<\/span> <span style=\"color:#008000;font-size:14px\">(&nbsp;how do I configure?&nbsp;)<\/span><br \/><\/strong><span style=\"font-size:12px\"><strong>onlyRunOnDedicatedServers<\/strong>&nbsp;(default = true): If the mod should only run on dedicated servers.
