[ADMN] OnTimeCommands v1.4 - Commands that run at a certain time of day [1337]

OnTimeCommands is now on BukkitDev. Support will no longer be provided here. If you need help, put a ticket in on the BukkitDev page.

 

Oh, I removed the plugin... but can you show me an example for the config? I know here is allready an example but it isn't still working

 

In the first page you have one.

So it's ok for me it works !

Code:

enabled: true

    mobs_on_dimanche:
        nextrun: 00:01:00 08-28-2011

        - wxremove nether

 

Currently, if the server terminates unexpectedly or there is a reboot, the "nextrun:" are populated with the current time at which the server was restarted. This really screws up any scheduled entries you have in the config, and have to manually change the entries proper. Is there no way to prevent this behavior when calculating the next start time for an entry?

I see this behavior more when the the "repeat" option is set to day. It changes the date properly, but the time (hour, min, sec) of the day the task should run is now from the time the server rebooted.

 

Oh, sorry. That would be my fault...I accidentally had it set all of the fields "below" (shorter than) the one you selected to 0 instead of the last value they were at. So if you had it at "12:30:00 8-28-2011" and you had it repeating every day, it would set it to "00:00:00 8-28-2011" which obviously is not a valid date, so it reverts to setting it to the startup time. I'll fix that as soon as possible.

 

Plugin updated to version 1.4! All this version does is fix the bug described in the changelog (thank you Azlodin! ).

 

I can't get it to work! can you please send me a config where i auto saves every 20 minutes automaticly? i tried posting my config into ymlite, or what it was called, but it dident work, so please, a config of it auto saving every 20 minutes? would appriciate it!

 

Could you post the configuration you tried? I might be able to fix it.

 

Here you go.

Code:

enabled: true
tasks:
    autosave:
        commands:
        - save-all
        nextrun: 00:00:00 09-05-2011
        repeat: minute
        repeatspan: 20

You can change the nextrun field to the time/date of your choosing to meet your needs. Just know this will just do execute the OP command save-all. If you are looking to make a backup of the world folder (or any folder/file) then you'll need to use something else.

 

Thank you Azlodin! You now have two cookies diamonds waiting for you .

 

Thanks! But, i prefer the cookies... (I am a chocoholic) =D

 

Oh...I forgot to mention that they are chocolate diamonds. Have fun!

 

Thanks

 

Ok, i don't get it to work again *embarassed* here's my config
enabled: true
tasks:
autorestart:
commands:
- .restart
nextrun: 20:13:40 09-06-2011
repeat: minute
repeatspan: 45
autosave:
commands:
- .restart
nextrun: 20:18:40 09-06-2011
repeat: minute
repeatspan: 20
( the spaces dident get pasted in this, but i got
4 spaces after auto restart and save and 8 after everything else except tasks and enabled

Please tell me what's wrong and maybe fix it? peharps? would really appriciate it!

And if it's not about me, can anyone help me setup a config that makes it save and restart every 20 min, and restart every 45 min, but based on time? ( not the repatspan ) i hope i'm not asking too much, but would really appriciate some help.

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

Try this:

Code:

enabled: true
tasks:
    autorestart:
        commands:
            - /reload
        nextrun: 00:00:00 09-07-2011
        repeat: minute
        repeatspan: 45
    autosave:
        commands:
            - /save-all
            - /reload
        nextrun: 00:00:00 09-07-2011
        repeat: minute
        repeatspan: 20

You may want to change the nextrun time of each task to what you want.

 

But there's a problem, 1, it dosent works whit / becuse it's runned from console, and it works, untill the server restarts! then the next run time whont change! D= any change to add time to it? like 12:00 12:20 12:40 13:00 etc?

 

Oh, my bad. I forgot to remove the slash . What does the time change to when the server reloads? Can you post your config after one run please?

 

Ok, i got it to work, it just stopped working for some hours... don't know why.

 

Good to hear . I don't know why it won't work at certain hours...may be a Java glitch.

 

Could there be a random in the repeat. I would like to start and stop Zombie Apocalypse like 12 to 24 times a day on my server. I don't want it to be expected!

 

I could add that, but it seems a little "unfit" for a scheduled tasks plugin....maybe I'll branch the plugin and make a new one for tasks that repeat randomly.

 

Don't work properly in 1.8.1

A do a simple test :

Code:

enabled: true
tasks:
    timeday:
        nextrun: 19:25:00 09-24-2011
        repeat: minute
        repeatspan: 2
        commands:
        - say Jour...
        - time day
    timenight:
        nextrun: 19:24:00 09-24-2011
        repeat: minute
        repeatspan: 2
        commands:
        - say Nuit...
        - time night

The first task work but the repeat is do every minute and i ask every two minute...

Need update to 1.8.1 please

I don't find plugin with the same functionnality

 

1.8.1 wouldn't create that problem. I don't know why it isn't working...but all of the time functions (repeat, repeatspan, date, etc.) are handled by Java, so this must be some sort of Java problem, not Bukkit.

 

You can really get creative using this automation plugin. One time I made it say in yellow "Notch has joined the game" and made Notch say hello to everyone then left. When I came online, everyone was like "OMG JUNG Guess what? NOTCH CAME!!!!"

Epic trolling successful

Another thing is that I like to set special commands when I am sleeping such as keeping it night time. Another Idea i made was flooding a castle and unflood it for 1 hour that had lots of chests full of valuables.

So, id like to see this plugin continue working for 1.8 and beyond. So far, it works for me on 1185

 

Is there going to be an update for this plugin for build 1240 if not is there an alternative plugin?

 

Any chance you can update soon? Thanks

 

I'll test this out in a few, this seems like it could be useful..

 

Now if only sk89q made it possible to select cuboid regions with coordinates... :c

 

Why will you not update this awesome plugin?!!!

 

This plugin should work fine on the latest build (works with mine). Please post any errors here if it does not. I'll change the title.

 

Im getting this
