Autmated restart warnings

Recommended Posts

I dont want to use BEC because for what ever reason the database connection messes up when i use a scheduler to restart the server.

I am currently using TCA to run restarts since it completely shuts down the server and starts it again.

My question is can i add multiple timeouts for MOTD messages to be delayed for 5 hours and 50 minutes again for 5 hours and 55 minutes and once more for 5 hours and 59 minutes

to warn for restart since each restart is 6 hours apart? If so can someone give me an example of how to do this.

My MOTD looks like this:

motd[] = {

"Hacking is not be permitted.",

"All hacking/scripting will result is a GUID and IP ban",

"Hackers/Scripters will be submitted for global ban.",

"Join the forums dayzthelounge.freeforums.org",

};

motdInterval = 5;

So under it could i just repeat this again under the current only to look like

motd[] = {

"Server restarting in 10 minutes",

};

motdInterval = 21000;

for the 10 minutes warning and like wise for the other warnings or would it conflict with the other MOTD sequence

I have a simular setup using TCA, I want the server to completely shutdown, and restart every six hours. (00:00, 06:00, 12:00, and 18:00) but I can't seem to get a BEC schedule or MOTD to work with it to give 30, 10, 5, and 1 minute warnings to my players. Any help would be greatly appricated.

If there is no reply I will test my theories tomorrow and report back but if anyone knows how to do this please let me know. I know it can be done I've seen what appears to be the same idea on another server, just have to figure it out....
