How to make 1 week even server down

No.. this is not the way to handle something like this.. this should be done in a script.. so take this thread to requests..

 

[maikons]

Someone can show me the way?

 

[maikons]

Where is it? What is search!? Where i search?

 

[maikons]

I would use a global event and check the week day with os.date("*t").

<globalevent name="Invasion" time="09:00:00" script="invasion.lua" />

If you want to randomize the time you can use addEvent in the script to delay the start.

local now = os.date("*t")
if now.wday == 2 then -- if today is monday (wday can be 1-7 and starts with Sunday as 1)
    addEvent(startInvasionFunction, delayInMS)
end

Just use math.random. You should at least try to google your problem. It is a native function to LUA and very well documented...

How to use a func random to 10 raids and choose only one?

local rand = math.random(1, 10000)
if(rand == 1) then
raid1

My problem is to make
startInvasionFunction

How to do it? Where i put this func?

 

[president vankk]

Maybe?

local raids = {
    'Raid 1',
    'Raid 2,
    'Raid 3'
}

executeRaid(raids[math.random(1, #raids)])

 

[maikons]

Maybe?

local raids = {
    'Raid 1',
    'Raid 2,
    'Raid 3'
}

executeRaid(raids[math.random(1, #raids)])

Maybe but u know how to make function in script to spawn monsters?
startInvasionFunction

 

[forgee]

Maybe but u know how to make function in script to spawn monsters?
startInvasionFunction

TFS 1.0 and up:
Game.startRaid(raidName)
or
Game.createMonster(monsterName, position[, extended =false[, force =false]])
