[contiga]

NOTE: First of all, I'd like to say that no one is allowed to use this script for his/her own server, or a server he/she works on. I'm just showing this because I can't find a problem in it, but there is.

The problem: The first time I add a few messages, everything works perfect, but as soon as I use my (tempory) commands like; /msg <msg>, /adm <msg> and/or /sys <msg>, things go wrong.

What goes wrong?

The 5 between params[ 0] and params[ 1] in the serverside part (i.triggerClient ... line) stands for the seconds the message should show.
The first time I do a message, after all the other messages, which I added at onCreated() ..., are hidden (using '/msg' or any of the other commands) it still works fine. But when I wait one second after the first time, and then add another message, it SHOULD be like, the first message has 4 seconds left of showing, and the new message 5 seconds. But what happens? They both hide after 4 seconds. So yeah.. that pretty much "sucks" xD Especially if I wait 4 seconds and then add a new message, because then, they'll both hide after 1 second.

I hope anyone gets what I mean, and is able to help me.

Ps. I didn't style this script like I should style it yet, I just kept a lot of space to keep the script well-organized because of the errors in it.
