The Messages feature in LootLocker allows you to instantly send messages to your players directly from the Web Console. This provides an efficient way to communicate updates, alerts, and other important information to players in real-time.
To create a new message, click the Create Messages button. In the popup window, enter the Title and Summary for the message. These fields can be edited later.
Click Create, and the new message will appear in the menu as a Draft.
To edit a message, click the Edit button on the message you wish to update. This opens an expanded view where you can modify the entire contents of the message.
The following fields can be populated and will be sent along with the message in-game:
Title: The title of the message.
Category: A category tag for organizing or identifying the message type.
Action: Specify a custom action to trigger in-game from the message.
Image: A URL or in-game reference to an image to display with the message.
Alert: A boolean value indicating whether the player should be notified of the message.
Summary: A brief summary of the message for situations where displaying the full content isn’t necessary.
Message Body: The complete content of the message.
Publish Date: The date and time when the message becomes active.
When your game retrieves messages, all the above information is returned, allowing you to take the appropriate action for each message.
To publish a message, set a Publish Date or click Publish ASAP to use the current date and time.
If needed, you can return a published message to draft form by clicking the Draft button.
