Send message in chat

[icho]

i need just to send random message in chat but my code isn't working, there are no errors or warnings in log

 

local messages = {'message1', 'message2'}

local function sendMsgInChat()
    local randIndex = math.random(1, #messages)
    local randMsg = messages[randIndex]

    sendServerCommand('chat', '[SERVER]: '..randMsg)
end

Events.EveryHours.Add(sendMsgInChat)

Try to use media/lua/shared/Translate/RU/IG_UI_RU.txt file to encode cyrillic localization. Create 31 line with cyrillic symbols and then use them for lua.
F.e, IGUI_F = "Ф",
