Nice idea... Help.

[kito2]

Can someone make a script that after random minutes (between 30-43) of a player loged in, then it saves the char, so you don't have the need to do a global save an freeze the server, and also it is not frequently that lot of players log in in the same time, just when you open the server and for that, a random.

Do you get it?

And also there should be a independiente saving house system, but I don't have any idea on how to.

nvm

function onLogin(cid)
	addEvent(saveRepeat(),math.random(30,43)*60*1000)
	return true
end

function saveRepeat(cid)
local v = getThingPos(cid)
	doPlayerSave(cid)
	doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid,19,"Your character's progress is saved.")
	doSendMagicEffect(v,11)
	addEvent(saveRepeat,math.random(30,43)*60*1000)
	return true
end

if isPlayer(cid) then
doPlayerSave(cid)
doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid,19,"Your character's progress is saved.")
addEvent(saveRepeat,math.random(30,43)*60*1000)
end

hmm?

 

[hodleo]

yes

 

[kito2]

if isPlayer(cid) then
doPlayerSave(cid)
doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid,19,"Your character's progress is saved.")
addEvent(saveRepeat,math.random(30,43)*60*1000)
end

hmm?

I couldn't get it, which is the point?

function onLogin(cid)
	addEvent(saveRepeat(),math.random(30,43)*60*1000)
	return true
end

function saveRepeat(cid)
local v = getThingPos(cid)
	doPlayerSave(cid)
	doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid,19,"Your character's progress is saved.")
	doSendMagicEffect(v,11)
	addEvent(saveRepeat,math.random(30,43)*60*1000)
	return true
end

Thanks, but how this will stop if player log out, there should be a function that stop the event?

How to add it at log in... It gives an error saying that it should be a function, and I add it after the login function :S

where is the custom saveRepeat function, you can't exclude it ;x
this is how I would do it

function saveRepeat(cid)
    if not isPlayer(cid) then return true end
    doPlayerSave(cid)
    doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid,19, 'Your character\'s progress is saved.')
    doSendMagicEffect(getThingPos(cid), 11)
    save = addEvent(saveRepeat, math.random(30,43) *60*1000, cid)
end

function onLogin(cid)
    save = addEvent(saveRepeat, math.random(30,43)*60*1000, cid)
    return true
end

function onLogout(cid)
    stopEvent(save)
    return true
end

<event type="login" name="saveOn" event="script" value="save.lua"/>
<event type="logout" name="saveOff" event="script" value="save.lua"/>
