Announcement Box



The Announcement Box is a special sign that, when powered, will announce (in the chat) what was written on the sign.

Formatting
Certain keywords will change the formatting of the text, for example color.

Color
To change the color of inputted text, type  with your text after the colon and any hexadecimal color code in place of "FFFFFF".
 * Example: Inputting  will create the output " The blood moon is rising... "
 * Also, typing in  will create the color shown when an invasion starts or when a boss is summoned.
 * You can use this website, here to choose a Hexadecimal Color for the Announcement Box.

Item
It is possible to showcase an item in chat, similar to how Alt+Click works in normal chat. To show an item type , where "zXX" is a property of an item, and "ID" is an ID of an item". Valid item properties are (XX — a number): The easiest way of getting an Item code is doing the following: first open the chat, Alt+Click needed item, press Ctrl+A to select all text in the chat, and finally press Ctrl+C to copy it. Then you can paste the code into Announcement Box.
 * Example: Inputting  will show a dirt block with item count 24 in chat
 * Example: Inputting  will show the Legendary Solar Flare Pickaxe in chat
 * sXX — items in stack.
 * pXX — prefix of an item.

Achievement
You can also write a link to achievement into chat, for this type, with "NAME" being an Achievement name
 * Example: Inputting  will put a message into chat: "Star Power", you can click on it, to open achievement menu at this achievement's position.

Glyphs
Controller buttons can be displayed using the  tag, where # corresponds to one of the following functions:


 * Example: The following sequence could be used to display the classic Konami Code:

Note that this outputs literal button glyphs, and the output may not match functions assigned in the player's current control scheme. While minor, this could limit the usefulness in custom world designs.

Trivia

 * The Announcement Box was a suggestion by Master Geass, a user on the Official Terraria Forums. The original post can be found here.
