Help at Gmx timer - KillerStrike23 - 24.04.2014

hey guys I want a help, in how to make a timer for the cmd gmx I want the server to restart every 8 hours any one could help ?

Re : Help at Gmx timer - S4t3K - 24.04.2014

Use a timer and make a public function which the only instruction is a rcon command gmx, such as

PHP код:





forward restartGamemode();


public restartGamemode()

{

   SendRconCommand("gmx");

   return 1;

}


public OnGameModeInit()

{

    SetTimer("restartGamemode", 28800000, false);

    return 1;

}

28800000 = 3600000 milliseconds (1 hour) * 8.

Uhm not sure if this is a good idea, since this may can cause lag...
I think its better to just create a timer that executes each minute, and then check the time.
If it is like 12 a clock you restart the gamemode.

Not sure if it matters lol.

Calling a timer once after 8 or 24 hours since the gamemode has started seems to be the best option. A repeated timer that checks every minute the time is indeed going to be called more times. The less it gets called, the better!

you must set another timer into your function to tell the players that server will restart in next maybe 5 or 10 minuets ... and also increase the time to more than 12 hours ... bcoz it can be harmful and first your players will get angry ... second there is less data loss

Here, I made this..! Not sure if it'll work though!

Restarts the server every 24 hours.
and every five minutes, it'll tell the players how much time is remaining..

pawn Код:

new hours,minutes;
forward restartGameMode();
public restartGameMode()
{
    minutes++;
    new string[100];
    if(minutes == 60){
        minutes = 0;
        hours++;
    }
    if(hours == 24){
        SendRconCommand("gmx");
        hours = 0;
    }
    if((minutes % 5) == 0){
        format(string,sizeof(string),"%d minutes remaining in the restart!",1440-minutes);
        SendClientMessageToAll(0xFF8800,string);
    }
}
SetTimer("restartGameMode",1000*60,1);
