Multimode Core Countdown

Multimode Core Countdown Wiki

We will be covering a new wiki about our new countdown mechanism, which displays messages and events when the end vote is about to happen...

Important

This feature is still in beta, any bugs, please report, it will help a lot!

Installing Countdown

When you download the Multimode Core project, you automatically download the cooldowns as well, check your folder if it contains cooldown.txt...

└── addons/
    └── sourcemod/
        ├── configs/
        │   └── countdown.txt *NEW*
        ├──────────────────── 

(Warning: You can change the file type or file name to anything with the command "multimode_countdown_filename", default file name "countdown.txt".)

If you have this file on the server, you can now use cooldowns!

Configuring Multimode Core Countdown

As for the new countdown mechanism, we'll talk about how to configure and use it

(Warning: If you want to disable the feature, you can use the command "multimode_countdown 0" to disable it)
