Server admins can now manage their own broadcast [Server] messages.

[totemo]

I had a few hours before end of rev chaos was due to start on Survival today, so I implemented a command to manage rotating broadcast messages.

• /alert
  • Show help for sub commands. Anyone can run this.
• /alert list
  • Show the full list of all broadcast messages. Anyone can run this. Handy if you missed one.
• /alert add <message>
  • An admin-only command to add a new message to the rotation.
• /alert remove <number>
  • An admin-only command to remove a specific message.  Use /alert list to find out what number to use.
• /alert interval
  • Shows an admin the interval, in seconds, between broadcasts.
• /alert interval <number>
  • An admin-only command to set the number of seconds between broadcasts.
• /alert load <file>
  • An admin-only command to bulk-load many messages from a text file.  These are added to any messages already present.  You need a tech to put the file on the disk.  Use with caution.

Survival (chaos) and PvE are now set up.  I will be bulk-loading messages on Creative in a few minutes.

Thanks for this Totemo, server messages are on my to-do list so this will save me having to request several changes.
