CSB MOTD News

Shows a news/changelog MOTD only when it changes, tracking a version per SteamID in nVault; /news re-opens it on demand.

CSB MOTD News shows a news / changelog MOTD, but only when it actually changed. The news file's first line carries a version number; that number is stored per SteamID in an nVault, so a returning player is not shown the same news twice. The MOTD is rendered from a local file, or from a URL if one is set, and players can re-open the latest news any time with /news.

Features

• Version-gated: shows only when the first-line version increases.
• Per-SteamID last-seen version stored in nVault.
• Local file or URL source (csb_news_url).
• /news re-opens on demand.
