ScheduledMessages

A simple server-side BepInEx plugin for Valheim that broadcasts scheduled messages to all players, and sends a welcome message to each player when they connect.

No client-side installation required.

Features

Broadcast messages to all players at specific times of day
Send a welcome message to each player when they join
Configurable welcome delay (to ensure the player is fully loaded in before the message appears)
Live config reloading — edit the config file while the server is running and changes take effect immediately, no restart required

Manual Installation (if for some reason the package manager doesn't work)

Install BepInEx 5.x on your Valheim server
Copy ScheduledMessages.dll into BepInEx/plugins/
Copy scheduledmessages.cfg into BepInEx/config/
Start the server

Configuration

The config file lives at BepInEx/config/scheduledmessages.cfg.

# ScheduledMessages config

# timezone: UTC offset in hours
#   e.g.  10 = AEST (Queensland)
#   e.g.  11 = AEDT (NSW/VIC during daylight saving)
#   e.g.  -5 = EST (US Eastern)
timezone=10

# welcome: message sent to each player after they connect
# leave blank or remove this line to disable
welcome=Welcome! Server restarts at 12am and 5am (AEST).

# welcome-delay: seconds to wait after connection before sending the welcome message
# a delay is recommended to ensure the player is fully loaded in
welcome-delay=30

# Scheduled messages: HH:mm <message text>  (24 hour time, one per line)
11:30 Server restart in 30 minutes.
11:40 Server restart in 20 minutes.
11:50 Server restart in 10 minutes.
11:59 Server restart in 1 minute. Find somewhere safe!

Notes

Times are in 24-hour format
The timezone offset is applied to UTC, so set it to match your server's local time
Lines starting with # are comments and are ignored
The config file is watched for changes — just save the file and the new config will be picked up automatically. The log will confirm how many messages were loaded.
