MOTD not displaying

Whenever I connect to my silent server the MOTD doesn't display at all. I'm using three of the available lines and no matter which lines I try it doesn't show up at all. No, I'm not using black text. IT looks like this in the config:

set server_motd0 ""
set server_motd1 "message 1"
set server_motd2 "message 2"
set server_motd3 ""
set server_motd4 "message 3"
set server_motd5 ""

But with color codes applied, and slightly longer messages.

Including spaces, color codes, and all other characters the motds have a max length of 32 in my config.

 

I have two lua modules which I've tried disabling and still have the issue.

Silent version is 0.8.2.

 

 

Here's some output from the console:

The line that I suspect is "Info string length exceeded". I've got zero "sets" in the config and g_serverInfo is set to "1".

Try from rcon and see if you get any ouput for below:

 

server_motd1

 

If you don't then one of your config is overwriting the cvar to blank one. 

 

It outputs exactly what I have in the config.

 

Try this:

 

set server_motd0 "message 1"
set server_motd1 "message 2"
set server_motd2 "message 3"
set server_motd3 ""
set server_motd4 ""
set server_motd5 ""

 

This fixed it thankyou
