Lua manipulating os.time()

[darkmu]

I'm trying to make a system that he will be signaling the time for the next opening of the castle, could someone help me with this solution?

TFS 1.X

local warCastle = {
    ['Sunday'] = { timeOpen = '22:00' },
    ['Tuesday'] = { timeOpen = '22:00' },
    ['Friday'] = { timeOpen = '22:00' },
}

function onThink(interval)
    local currentTime = os.time()
    local targetTime  = os.time()
    
    local targetDate = os.date('*t', targetTime)
    local targetDay = warCastle[os.date('%A', os.time(targetDate))]
    
    if targetDay then
        for timeStr, openTime in pairs(targetDay) do
            local split = timeStr:split(':')
            targetDate.hour, targetDate.min = split[1], split[2]

            local timeLeft = os.time(targetDate) - currentTime           
            if timeLeft > 0 then
                local spectators = Game.getSpectators(settings.position, false, true, 7, 7, 5, 5)
                if #spectators > 0 then
                    if settings.text then
                        for i = 1, #spectators do
                            spectators[i]:say(string.format("Next War Castle Open %s.", showTimeLeft(timeLeft, true)), TALKTYPE_MONSTER_SAY, false, spectators[i], Position(81, 315, 6))
                        end
                    end           
                end
                break
            end
        end   
    end
    
    return true
end

                        end
                    end         
                end
                break
            end
        end 
    end
  
    return true
end

I only tested this out with lua demo so let me know if it works. I also didn't get involved in adding it to onThink cause I'm not exactly sure what all you need beyond the time check.

-- warCastle index [0-6 = Sunday-Saturday]

warCastle = {
    [0] = { weekday = 'Sunday', time = '22:00' },
    [2] = { weekday = 'Tuesday', time = '22:00' },
    [5] = { weekday = 'Friday', time = '22:00' },
}

local currentWeekday = os.date("%w")
local currentTime = os.date('%H%M', os.time())

local nextCastle
for i = currentWeekday, 6 do
    if warCastle[i] then
        local warCastleTime = warCastle[i].time:gsub(":", "")
        if currentTime < warCastleTime then
            nextCastle = warCastle[i]
            break
        end
    end
end

nextCastle = nextCastle or warCastle[0] -- make sure this index is always set to the first iteration in warCastle table

print("The next War Castle will be open on " .. nextCastle.weekday .. " at " .. nextCastle.time .. ".")
