Solved Boss Event

[keccish]

Is there any way to make this script start every 2-3 [HOURS]

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<raid>

<announce delay="0" type="warning" message="Zugurosh is coming our way..." />
<announce delay="10000" type="event" message="Zugurosh has come again to destroy the world!" />

<singlespawn delay="12000" name="zugurosh" x="1000" y="1006" z="7" />

<announce delay="13000" type="warning" message="WE HAVE TO KILL HIM FAST!" />
<areaspawn delay="13000" fromx="1165" fromy="890" fromz="7" tox="1159" toy="860" toz="7">
</areaspawn>

</raid>

-- Thanks in advance

If you want exactly what keccish all you must do is add an interval to the raids.xml file.

Well hopefully you don't mind sorting it out I'd greatly appreciate it:
globalevents.xml:

    <globalevent name="raid" interval="6" event="script" value="raid.lua"/>

globalevents/scripts/raid.lua:

local storage = 1344
local raids = {
    "Morgaroth",
    "Ghazbaran",
    "Undead Jester",
    "goblin",
    "Dryads",
    "Halloweenhare",
    "Hornedfox",
    "Necropharus",
    "Wolfsraid",
    "UndeadArmy",
    "UndeadDarashia",
    "The Old Widow",
    "Scarabs",
    "Rats",
    "Quara",
    "Pirates",
    "Orshabaal",
    "OrcsThais",
    "Ferumbras",
    "Elfs",
    "Demodras",
    "Barbarian"
}
function onThink(interval, lastExecution, thinkInterval)
    if getGlobalStorageValue(storage) == -1 or getGlobalStorageValue(storage) < os.time() then
        executeRaid(raids[math.random(1, #raids)])
        setGlobalStorageValue(storage, os.time() + 9 * 60 * 60)
    end
    return TRUE
end

The 6 was just testing it and it seems to work but not like it should time wise its extremely random time wise from a few minutes up to a day, and not steady which kills me at the end; if you could help I really would appreciate it @dominique120 thank you ahead of time.

~Sin

No I did not I was just doing something else. You must edit this:

interval="6"

Since you use TFS 0.3.6 that value is in seconds so for example every two hours would be 7200 seconds.

 

[WhiteOut]

Alright bud, I use to do the interval as 3600 but to entertain the thought I'll go ahead and do 7200 to see how if it finally wants to do it on point (4 hours = 2 random events)

Thanks Dominique120

As I predicted:
22:46 Frost OT has been online for: 2 hours and 20 minutes.
I set my globalevent.xml to:

    <globalevent name="raid" interval="7200" event="script" value="raid.lua"/>

I edited it to 7200 then I did my restart after words (the events do work I can trigger them by cmd at any time, and at random they will start when my interval is low just extremely random times)

Any ideas Mr. @dominique120 or anyone else who wants to give it a go? TFS 0.3.6
Thanks ahead of time and thanks for reading guy's

[dominique120]

If this is a raid why dont you make a raid xml for it?

 

[WhiteOut]

What do you mean by raid xml because I got the raid lua inside globalevents and the standard raid folder inside data which all the raid xml's
