Packet Information


Message ID:0x20
  
Message Name:SID_ANNOUNCEMENT
  
Message Status:DEFUNCT
  
Direction:Server -> Client (Received)
  
Used By:Starcraft Shareware, Starcraft Broodwar, Diablo Shareware, Warcraft II, Starcraft, Starcraft Japanese, Diablo
  
Format:(STRING) Text
  
Remarks:Very simply prints out text with the string at 1903B9FBh (the default string, used anyway if the username field is NULL in the chat event struct -- currently a single 0x7F char) as the username.

Used to send announcements and arbitrary messages to the user, but this was soon superseded by SID_CHAT subcommands such as EID_INFO, EID_ERROR, and EID_BROADCAST. Printed out with the same color and style as an EID_BROADCAST.

Found at:
battle!1901DDA0h (as of 1.16.1)
  
Related:[0x0F] SID_CHATEVENT (S->C)
