Additional Notes
- Your message should be ended with an "\n" - for example: "Hello world!\n". Otherwise the next message that is written won't begin on the next line, it will begin at the end of your last message!
- Alternatively of appending every message with "\n" you can use MsgN instead.
- If run on the client, the message will be yellow in color. When run on the server, the message will be blue in color. For white text, use print.
- This is only visible in the console of the system it is run on - when run on the server, only the server console sees it. When run on the client, only that client sees it. If you wish to send a message to all clients, consider using MsgAll.
