How to make a big Message appear at startup like "Destroy enemy bulidings!"

You know this type of HUD message from the multiplayer training at startup or from "Your ammo is full"....

I think that may be a SP feature, and I already asked a coder friend of mine and he said the SP calls are blocked in MP. :/

That message is a generic message embedded somewhere in the client. It is not sent by the server.

This would have to be a new feature by TT to send a command from the server to the client to display that message.

ueh, does he even wants it to be send by the server and not just a static thing that always shows up?
