WelcomeScreenConfig.json
Spoiler!
{
"Title": "Welcome",
"WelcomeFile": "welcome.md"
}


  • `Title` — dialog window title
  • `WelcomeFile` — path to the Markdown file (relative to server data dir)

 

welcome.md

Place this file in the server's data directory. Standard Markdown syntax is supported:

 

Spoiler!

```markdown
# Server Name

Welcome to our server!

## Rules
1. Be respectful
2. No griefing

**Have fun!**
```

 

 

WelcomeScreenModCheck.json

{
"Enabled": true,
"RecommendedMods": [
{ "ModId": "rpvoicechat", "DisplayName": "RPVoiceChat", "Reason": "Proximity voice chat" }
],
"BlacklistedMods": []
}


  • `RecommendedMods` — mods the server suggests clients should have
  • `BlacklistedMods` — mods the server disallows (shown as warning, might lead to user blacklist in future)
