The types are: - - 1 - Seconds (of a minute) - 2 - Minutes (of an hour) - 3 - Hour (of a day), ranging from 0 to 23 - 4 - Weekday, ranging from 0 (Sunday) to 6 (Saturday) - 5 - Day of the month - 6 - Number of the month - 7 - Year - 8 - Day of the year - -This way, we can check for a desired minute, hour, day, month, etc. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -Now the structure: - - OnClock2100: // Start time for Tues(2), Thurs(4) - OnClock2300: // End time for Tues(2), Thurs(4) - OnClock1600: // Start time for Sat(6) - OnClock1800: // End time for Sat(6) - -These 4 labels will run one after the other, reaching the next check: - - if((gettime(4)==2) && (gettime(3)>=21 && gettime(3)<23)) goto L_Start; - if((gettime(4)==4) && (gettime(3)>=21 && gettime(3)<23)) goto L_Start; - if((gettime(4)==6) && (gettime(3)>=16 && gettime(3)<18)) goto L_Start; - -This part will check for the times. Since both Start and End times run -through the same chain of commands, these are important checks to ensure -it's the right time. Let's take the following example: - - if((gettime(4)==2) && (gettime(3)>=21 && gettime(3)<23)) - -The first gettime() is checking for a type 4, the day of the week, and it's -comparing it to the one desired, which is 2 (Tuesday). The function will -return either 1 (true) or 0 (false). - -The second gettime is checking type 3, the hour, and it's comparing -it to 21. If the first part is greater than or equal to (>=) the second part, -the comparison will return 1. - -The third and last gettime is checking again for the hour, but the time has to be less -than the specified time (in this case, 23). - -Now, look at the parentheses. Parentheses are very important when making comparisons -and conditions. Check the order of these. I'll place dummy characters for this example: - - if ((X && (Y && Z)) goto L_Start; - -It's saying, if Y and Z are true, the condition is met. Now let's use another set -of dummy characters. We're checking if (Y && Z) = G: - - if (X && G) goto L_Start; - -It's saying that if X and G are true, the condition is met, thus proceeding to L_Start. - -Now, the last part of the script, regarding the end of WoE time: - - if((gettime(4)==2) && (gettime(3)==23)) goto L_End; - if((gettime(4)==4) && (gettime(3)==23)) goto L_End; - if((gettime(4)==6) && (gettime(3)==18)) goto L_End; - end; - -This is the same as before, but it's checking for the day in the first gettime() and -the hour on the second. If both conditions are true, WoE will end. We're checking -here for the end time, not the start. - -Another important thing is "OnAgitInit:". This special label will be run as soon as the -castle data is loaded from the char data. It will check for the above start and end times -to see if it's in WoE time, hence why the hours have to be checked. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -An example of how to set the WoE so it starts on Monday, at 4 pm and ends up at 10 pm: - - OnClock1600: // 16:00 = 4 pm - OnClock2200: // 22:00 = 10 pm - - OnAgitInit: // This can only be written once: put OnClock above and the checks below. - - if ((gettime(4)==1) && (gettime(3)>=16 && gettime(3)<22)) goto L_Start; - if ((gettime(4)==1) && (gettime(3)==22) goto L_End; - end; // Don't forget this! |
