Plugin is updated. You can now run configs over days, weeks and month. I hope it's a little bit usefull.

Can you update the plugin, so one can use any console command, not only "exec example.cfg"?


I'd really appreciate it, since I've been waiting for a plugin like yours for quite some time now.
However, I could create configs with the CVARs I'd like to execute.


Anyways, I've really been waiting for a good scheduler. Good work, gonna test it!

hmm. I really don't know what you mean?
Can you explain it a bit more?

[dangerix]

For example, I wish to run my server with mp_timelimit 30 all day long, but in the night. In the night I'd rather like to use mp_timelimit 15.
I just want to execute a single console command at a specific time, not a whole config. Of course I could simply execute a config with your plugin, but that way I'd have to put a LOT configs in the server's cstrike folder - just for executing a single command at a specific time.

stime=24:00
etime=06:00
sday=all
eday=all
sconfig=mp_timelimit 15
econfig=mp_timelimit 30

Edit: hmm. I think I will add this with the new version...

[rory535]

Im a little confused on the folders.
If my sconfigs file is "daylight.cfg", that goes in my configs/sconfigs/ folder.
If my econfigs file is "server.cfg", where do I place that file? Same folder as above?
Thanks

[DA]

Yes. Read my first post.

[rory535]

Ok, it doesnt seem to kick off my configs when I restart the server.

this is my timeconfigs.cfg

stime=01:00
etime=18:00
sday=all
eday=all
sconfig=serverday.cfg
econfig=server.cfg

I have a /configs/sconfigs folder. In this folder is my serverday.cfg and server.cfg file.

My serverday.cfg file is basically a copy of my normal server.cfg file with the additional line

mapcyclefile      "mapcycleday.txt"

My purpose is just to run a different map during the day.

When I restart the server, it starts the normal "mapcycle.txt" file and NOT the mapcycelday file.

Well, this is a bug. I think it will be fixed with the version.
@deejay87
Nope. The old config have to be in the sconfigs folder.
