SendChatMessageToAll

The same message in everyone’s chat - on a channel, in the chat of the players who see it.

The message is the one of SendChatMessage, with the same limits and the same reasons (bar "no such player"). On the default channel the line goes to everyone connected; on a channel it goes to the players the channel is visible to - an admin-only channel’s line to the admins, a party channel’s to everyone who is in a party.
