Timed Notifications: Auto-Broadcast Messages in BAR

BAR can send timed notification popups to all players at regular intervals — useful for advertising your group, reminding players of rules, or highlighting features. Messages cycle through your list sequentially and repeat indefinitely for as long as the server is running.

Configuration

The TimedNotifications table and its companion toggle live in ExtraSettings.lua:

["TimedNotifications"] = { -- Supports unlimited just use the same template
    [1] = "Join the group",
    [2] = "Buy cape",
    [3] = "Aspects cool",
    [4] = "B00PUPs cool",
    ["WaitTime"] = 5 -- Time before the next notification is sent out
},

["TimedNotificationsEnabled"] = true, --Have regular notifications sent out

Config fields

Field	Type	Description
`[1]`, `[2]`, `[3]`, …	`string`	The notification text to display. Each numbered entry is one message in the rotation.
`WaitTime`	`number`	Time in seconds to wait between broadcasting each notification.
`TimedNotificationsEnabled`	`boolean`	Master toggle. Set to `false` to disable all timed notifications without removing your message list.

BAR supports an unlimited number of notifications — simply keep adding sequentially numbered entries using the same pattern.

Custom Notification Example

Here is an example configuration for a roleplay game that cycles through server rules and community links:

["TimedNotifications"] = {
    [1] = "Welcome! Read the rules before playing.",
    [2] = "Join our group for in-game rewards: roblox.com/groups/12345",
    [3] = "No exploiting. Violators will be permanently banned.",
    [4] = "Having issues? Message a staff member.",
    [5] = "Enjoying the game? Leave a like — it helps a lot!",
    ["WaitTime"] = 30 -- Broadcast a new message every 30 seconds
},

["TimedNotificationsEnabled"] = true,

Keep each notification short and to the point. The Roblox notification UI has limited display space, and overly long strings may be truncated or appear awkward on smaller screens.

To completely disable the timed notification system, set TimedNotificationsEnabled to false. Your message list is preserved in the config and can be re-enabled at any time by flipping the toggle back to true.
