[DONE] Masterserver announcements
« on: 6 October 2010, 18:59:33 »
Maybe we can put a string on the masterserver that is displayed on all clients when entering the masterserver menu!
By this we can dynamically announce "important" things like this:

"Next official multiplayer session starts at ( November 1, 2010, 08:00:00 PM  UTC )"

Sounds like a handy way to remind players to upgrade.

"You're running version x.  Version y is now available.  We recommend that you update to stay compatible with other players, and for the latest features!"
