Task Scheduler - by JustinHoMi - Page 13

I'm already using amx_map

And if I remove my maps.ini, where do my admins get a full mapchange/mapvote list? Nowhere, unless you use the currently active mapcycle but I still want them to be able to change to ANYTHING, not just the "active" maps.

So, you need to use a modified mapchooser.amxx

Riiight...
That doesn't really mean anything to me.

Hi guys,

There appears to be a small "bug" in the standard mapsmenu.sma (mapsmenu.amxx) which stops the "mapcyclefile" command from working properly. The following is a quick fix and appears to work ;)

Code:

public plugin_init()
{
..
..
..
    //if (!file_exists(maps_ini_file))
    //    format(maps_ini_file, 63, "mapcycle.txt")
    
    ///////////////////     Fix a little bugger ///////////////
    if (!file_exists(maps_ini_file))
        get_cvar_string("mapcyclefile", maps_ini_file, 63)

FWIW, I prepared this to help a friend

Code:

Hi Peter,

I think I have managed to get this working - there is a "small" bug in the standard
mapsmenu.amxx file.

Basically, the Scheduler task reads the amxx.cfg file and executes commands defined by the
"amx_task" command - in this example it first displays a notification and then it changes the 
mapcyclefile to our new file name (default is mapcycle.txt).

This is not necessarily stuck at 3 cycles per day.

The new map cycle will not be displayed via the menues until after a map has changed or
until a "rcon restart" etc is issued. (it may be worthwhile actually adding a  ... amx_task "restart"
after each of the mapcyclefile commands .. not sure if it will work or not).

cheers 
Will

------------------------------------------------------------
Instructions
------------------------------------------------------------
1. Create 3 new text files in dod\
    dod\morningmaps.txt
    dod\afternoonmaps.txt
    dod\eveningmaps.txt

(or any names you choose - they just have to match the names in the amxx.cfg file)
populate them with the full map names for each time...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Rename
    dod\addons\amxmodx\configs\maps.ini -> old_maps.ini
    (this make amxmodx then use the HL "mapcyclefile" variable get used -
    usually
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Copy the file: 
    mapsmenuwlb.amxx   -> dod\addons\amxmodx\plugins
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. Copy the file: 
    task_scheduler.amxx -> dod\addons\amxmodx\plugins
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. Edit the file:
    dod\addons\amxmodx\configs\plugins.ini

    a) by adding task_scheduler.amxx
    b) commenting out mapsmenu.amxx
    c) by adding mapsmenuWLB.amxx

    --------- Start plugins.ini ------------------
    ; AMX Mod X plugins

    ; Admin Base - Always one has to be activated
    ...
    task_scheduler.amxx    ; JGHG Task Scheduler

    ; Menus
    ...
    ;        
    ; maps menu (vote, changelevel)
    mapsmenuWLB.amxx        ; maps menu (vote, changelevel)
    --------- End plugins.ini ------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. Edit the file 
    dod\addons\amxmodx\configs\amxx.cfg

    a) by adding the following lines

    --------- Start amxx.cfg ------------------
    amx_task 03:59 "amx_tsay RED 'Morning Map Cycle Starting'" t
    amx_task 04:00 "mapcyclefile morningmaps.txt" t

    amx_task 13:59 "amx_tsay RED 'Afternoon Map Cycle starting 2'" t
    amx_task 14:00 "mapcyclefile afternoonmaps.txt" t

    amx_task 17:59 "amx_tsay RED 'Evening Map Cycle Starting'" t
    amx_task 18:00 "mapcyclefile eveningmaps.txt" t
    --------- End amxx.cfg ------------------

panda82 · 12-27-2007 , 16:52 Re: Task Scheduler - by JustinHoMi

hi i put this line in amxx.cfg and no effect

amx_task 1 "amx_execall bind f12 "say am apasat un buton"" mr

what is wrong!

deejay87 · 12-27-2007 , 18:01 Re: Task Scheduler - by JustinHoMi

lot of quote " " " " not permit only one for open and one for close try like this :

Quote:

amx_task 1 "amx_execall bind f12 \'say am apasat un buton\'" mr

or

Quote:

amx_task 1 "amx_execall bind f12 'say am apasat un buton'" mr

I don't have install this two plugins to test now.

panda82 · 12-28-2007 , 11:48 Re: Task Scheduler - by JustinHoMi

the command for amx_exec is

Code:

amx_execall bind f12 "say am apasat un buton"

and i tryed what you say'd but no effect!

deejay87 · 12-28-2007 , 12:49 Re: Task Scheduler - by JustinHoMi

if you don't find , put your command in a .cfg file and exec it

bindf12.cfg

Quote:

amx_execall bind f12 "say am apasat un buton"

And you can do this :

Quote:

amx_task 1 "exec bindf12.cfg" mr

Put the file in your mod location. (cstrike/czero ...)

Does anybody know what i would have to change in this plugins code in order to be able to set more tasks. Or better yet is there a better way to do things like this.

Code:

/* AMX Mod script. (Nov 10th, 2002)
*
* Task Scheduler 0.2
*  by JustinHoMi
*
* amx_task time "task" flags
* flags:
*  m - time is in minutes
*  s - time is in seconds
*  r - repeat task
*  t - specific time
*
*/

#include <amxmodx>

new task_cmds[32][108]
new task_times[32][16]
new numtasks = 0

public load_task()
{
	if (read_argc() < 4) {
		server_print("[AMX] Usage:  amx_task < time > ^"command^" < flags >")
		return PLUGIN_HANDLED
	}

	new args[128]
	read_args(args,128)
	new clock[6], cmd[108], flags[5]

	parse(args,clock,6,cmd,108,flags,5)
	new Float:time_f = floatstr(clock)

	new flag[2] = ""
	if (contain(flags,"r") != -1)
		flag="b"
	if (contain(flags,"m") != -1)
		time_f = time_f * 60

	if (contain(flags,"t") != -1)
	{
		copy(task_cmds[numtasks],108,cmd)
		copy(task_times[numtasks],6,clock)
		numtasks++
		return PLUGIN_HANDLED
	}

	set_task(time_f,"run_task",0,cmd,108,flag)

	return PLUGIN_CONTINUE
}

public run_task(cmd[])
{
	server_cmd(cmd)
	return PLUGIN_HANDLED
}

public check_time()
{
	new curtime[16]
	get_time("%H:%M",curtime,16)

	for(new i=0; i<numtasks; i++)
		if(equal(curtime,task_times[i]))
			server_cmd(task_cmds[i])

	return PLUGIN_CONTINUE
}

public plugin_init()
{
	register_plugin("Task Scheduler","0.2","JustinHoMi")
	register_srvcmd("amx_task","load_task")
	set_task(60.0,"check_time",1,"",0,"b")
	return PLUGIN_CONTINUE
}

I have 26 tasks set so far but i would like to be able to run a max of 100
here are the tasks i have set in my server.cfg.

Code:

//change mapcycle time changer tasks
amx_task 01:00 "amx_map dod_orange" t
amx_task 01:01 "amx_cvar mp_timelimit 0" t
amx_task 10:00 "amx_map dod_dust" t
amx_task 10:01 "amx_cvar mp_timelimit 45" t

//restart task
amx_task 09:45 "amx_tsay yellow This server will reboot in 60 secs at (6:00am)" t
amx_task 09:46 "restart" t
amx_task 09:48 "amx_tsay green This server has just been restarted (Welcome Back to [FJ])" t

//Bot fun mode tasks
amx_task 09:00 "amx_tsay white Bot funmode has been enabled" t
amx_task 09:01 "shr funmode 1" t
amx_task 09:44 "amx_tsay white bot funmode has been disabled" t
amx_task 09:45 "shr funmode 0" t

amx_task 11:00 "amx_tsay white Bot funmode has been enabled" t
amx_task 11:01 "shr funmode 1" t
amx_task 11:44 "amx_tsay white bot funmode has been disabled" t
amx_task 11:45 "shr funmode 0" t

amx_task 13:00 "amx_tsay white Bot funmode has been enabled" t
amx_task 13:01 "shr funmode 1" t
amx_task 13:44 "amx_tsay white bot funmode has been disabled" t
amx_task 13:45 "shr funmode 0" t

amx_task 15:00 "amx_tsay white Bot funmode has been enabled" t
amx_task 15:01 "shr funmode 1" t
amx_task 15:44 "amx_tsay white bot funmode has been disabled" t
amx_task 15:45 "shr funmode 0" t

Code:

L 02/03/2008 - 09:49:00: [AMXX] Displaying debug trace (plugin "task_scheduler.amxx")
L 02/03/2008 - 09:49:00: [AMXX] Run time error 4: index out of bounds
L 02/03/2008 - 09:49:00: [AMXX]    [0] task_scheduler.sma::load_task (line 43)

This is line 43 and im not sure how to change it or if thats whats needed.
copy(task_cmds[numtasks],108,cmd)

Thanks all.

Hi,
i am using the AMXX Autorr plugin for my Dust2 only Server. Cause the Server never make any mapreloads i get up to 60MB logs in a few days

Also i am using Psychsostats and it gets high problem with so large log files.

So i want to restart the server evryday and reload the map evry 120minutes

Is is right to do it like this?

Code:

amx_task 119 "amx_tsay [TARGET info] Automatic Mapreload in 1 minute" mr
amx_task 120 "amx_rcon restart" mr

amx_task 5:40 "amx_tsay [TARGET info] Server restarts in 5 minutes" tr
amx_task 5:45 "amx_tsay [TARGET info] Automatic Serverrestart in 1 minute" tr
amx_task 5:46 "amx_shutdown" tr

amx_shutdown is the automatic server restart from the amx_super all in one admin commands packege
