if thats the issue make a custom message

well i used to reset regions every restart

If i remember correctly you could set a timeout

The problem is the custom hook.

or is that not possible

This would be a weekly restart cron job. Seperate from the normal ones. We had the normal restart cron job so shutdownba

Then the special one which is pretexted with the global say. Those would fire at different times.

It will fire for every restart.

no the cron job would fire normally then the hook would capture the in game chat

oh

But you can't add a cron job to a custom hook.

ex: say"[00ffff] Weekly reset zone restoration is in process. You may experience some lag. We thank you for your patience[-]"; shutdownba;

Then filter for the say portion

You could probably do it with a custom shutdownba and filter the in game chat message as the custom hook

That will only work for every restart, I think.

Actually, can you do that on only a weekly reset?

Thats a good idea. Ill do that. Thanks @User 53398683

That's a great idea.

so if any players gets bugged it will be fixed by the restart

That way it will always run when the server is actually going to restart

When i used to use cpm and csmm i did it this way;

Since cron might trigger during blood moon it would reset regions while players are online. This can cause issues like i said with player inventory and weapons not reloading.

The solution is to run a cron with

shutdownba 10

and than hook the message at a certain minute you want to run resetregions.

I'm going to say the best way to do it but don't ask me how 😛

That would be best.

so a separate command for the weekly one.

Once a week

No

How often do you reset your regions?

Could I do something like

resetregions; wait(180); shutdownba 10 or

resetregions; wait(180); rdd; shutdownba 10

They will be kicked from the server if they are online.

It is done individually for each player.

can rdd be processed in Server automation or is that something I would need to enter in the command console?

Do it before shutdown sometimes it bugs player they cannot open inventory

If your players can't deploy new drones because theirs was deleted, you need to do the

rdd

command.

Reset regions can be done at any time, while the server is online.

Most of us are doing it a few minutes before the restart.

If you start the restart at 10:50, do the

resetregions

command at 10:57.

sorry for getting confused terrible at multi tasking

Thank you

Just

shutdownba 10

.

Ugh, will you listen to me.

ok so just shutdownba reset

When the server shuts down, because you have the remove drones and vehicles enabled, it will delete them automatically.
No command required.

oh nice. How would I set it up so that I initiate reset zone resets , clear drones, and vehicles that have been placed then. Been having no luck with getting that to work. Nearly everyones reach max drone limit lol

Yes, every minute.

does that come with a counter?

The problem with doing it this way is if there is a bloodmoon and the shutdown get's delayed, this all fires anyway.

You should just use

shutdownba 10

.

No, the last line won't restart the server.

last line restarts server

How are you doing that currently?

10 minutes in chat verbal warning then shutdown after promptly

can i paste the code for reference?

So prior to shut downI have a chat message that goes out that warns people and does a 10 minute clock timer

How long of a countdown do you want?
