VAULT+ RUST PLUGIN Info Messages (AdvertCycler) 2.0.3

About Info Messages (AdvertCycler)​

AdvertCycler lets you create a rotating list of on-screen info messages (“adverts”) that display to players without spamming chat. It’s a clean, unobtrusive alternative to chat-based announcers, and the positioning is designed to remain consistent across different screen resolutions and UI scale settings.



Messages cycle on a configurable timer, either in order or randomly. You can fine-tune how the message looks and where it appears using:

• Preset alignment modes (Bottom Center / Bottom Left / Top Center / Top Right)
• Horizontal + Vertical offsets (with small/big nudge controls for precise positioning)
• Max text line width
• Font size
• Optional text outline with configurable color (quick-pick color swatches in the UI)

Admin UI (Instant Apply)

AdvertCycler includes a built-in admin UI for live editing and previewing changes in real time:

• Toggle the plugin on/off
• Adjust interval, alignment, offsets, width, and font settings
• Enable/disable outline and pick outline color
• Choose whether the advert displays on Overlay or Hud
• Manage the message list:
  • Add / Edit / Delete
  • Reorder messages (move up/down)
  • Paging for large lists

All changes apply instantly, so you can visually tune placement and style while in-game.
