Would this function work?

[nil, nil, rsystemChat, _message, "PLAIN"] call RE;

reproduced from:

[nil, nil, rTitleText, _message, "PLAIN"] call RE;

I could be wrong but I don't think you can call systemChat through that RE. If you can thgouh, just remove the 'PLAIN' as systemChat doesn't take any arguments except the string to display.

Whats an easy way to test it on a test server?

Well you can call RE clientside but I'm unsure if it produces the same effect as when called serverside. During testing of things previous I've called titleText through RE clientside and it worked, but I'm not sure if it only worked for me or if it propogated through the network.

 

To test it properly go into your 'init.sqf' file in your mission files and add this code right at the bottom.

if (isServer) then {
    'TESTRE' addPublicVariableEventHandler
    {
        private ['_message'];
        _message = _this select 1;
        [nil,nil,rSYSTEMCHAT,_message] call RE;
    };
} else {
    (findDisplay 46) displayAddEventHandler ['keyDown','if ((_this select 1) == 0x42) then {TESTRE = "Test Message!"; publicVariableServer "TESTRE";};'];
};

With that in place, hop in game and press F8 and if you can use systemChat through RE you should see 'Test Message!' in systemChat. :)

I cannot find systemChat in there. What would be a equivalent?
