This is the trade-off for having so many menus in the HLC RCON mod. Theoretically, the problem can be fixed, but tHere are three factors to consider here:

1) The amount of control options available through the HLC RCON Menu system: We want the utility to have as many control options as possible. Which brings us to:

2) How much scripting can be stored in one sub menu file. You can only fit so many controls into each submenu. That is, there is a limit to the file size for each menu file (the Weapon Control submenu, for example, is it's own file). If one file has too much scripting in it (and therefore is a large file in kb) then the game engine will only process so much of the menu with the result being an error and the inability to call the menu up. The solution then is to create multiple submenus. Which brings us to issue #3:

3) The game can cache only a limited number of submenus, before it starts ignoring some. In the case of the HLC RCON mod, it will ignore one of the three QUICKMESSAGES submenus (the Responses one if I remember correctly) and a few other menus added by other mods.

The Message of the Day does not appear because in order to provide access to the HLC RCON utility in-game all the time (either dead or alive or spectating) access to it had to be placed within the ESC menu. The main screen of that menu is the one that displays the Message of the Day, and because the HLC RCON mod "locks" this, you will not be able to view the MOD on your server.

Get it?

Thanks for the inquiry. Hopefully that will answer some other people's questions as well.
