Hi! When no players is joining zombie event the event will spawn zombies untill it got no place to spawn. How to do like an event "addEvent(stopevent, 600*1000)"? So all zombies will be delted and no more zombies created.

This is the autostarter:
Code: 
function onTime(interval, lastExecution)
local players_on_arena_count = #getZombiesEventPlayers()
local function start()
if(players_on_arena_count >= 0) then
addZombiesEventBlockEnterPosition()
doSetStorage(ZE_STATUS, 2)
doBroadcastMessage("Zombie Event has started")
else
addZombiesEventBlockEnterPosition()
end
return true
end
setZombiesEventPlayersLimit(100)
doBroadcastMessage("Zombie Event is starting in 1 minutes. Enter the teleport in Thais temple to join!")
removeZombiesEventBlockEnterPosition()
addEvent(start,60*1000)
doSetStorage(ZE_STATUS, 1)
return true
end

I tried to do it like this:
Code: 
function onTime(interval, lastExecution)
local players_on_arena_count = #getZombiesEventPlayers()
local function start()
if(players_on_arena_count >= 0) then
addZombiesEventBlockEnterPosition()
doSetStorage(ZE_STATUS, 2)
doBroadcastMessage("Zombie Event has started")
else
addZombiesEventBlockEnterPosition()
end
return true
end
setZombiesEventPlayersLimit(100)
doBroadcastMessage("Zombie Event is starting in 1 minutes. Enter the teleport in Thais temple to join!")
removeZombiesEventBlockEnterPosition()
addEvent(start,60*1000)
addEvent(stopeventzombie,600*1000)
doSetStorage(ZE_STATUS, 1)
return true
end
local function stopeventzombie()
if(players_on_arena_count >= 0) then
        doSetStorage(ZE_STATUS, 0)
        doSetStorage(ZE_PLAYERS_NUMBER, ZE_DEFAULT_NUMBER_OF_PLAYERS)
        doSetStorage(ZE_ZOMBIES_TO_SPAWN, 0)
        doSetStorage(ZE_ZOMBIES_SPAWNED, 0)
        local width = (math.max(ZE_spawnFromPosition.x, ZE_spawnToPosition.x) - math.min(ZE_spawnFromPosition.x, ZE_spawnToPosition.x)) / 2 + 1
        local height = (math.max(ZE_spawnFromPosition.y, ZE_spawnToPosition.y) - math.min(ZE_spawnFromPosition.y, ZE_spawnToPosition.y)) / 2 + 1
        local centerPos = {x=math.min(ZE_spawnFromPosition.x, ZE_spawnToPosition.x)+width,y=math.min(ZE_spawnFromPosition.y, ZE_spawnToPosition.y)+height,z=ZE_spawnFromPosition.z}
        for z = math.min(ZE_spawnFromPosition.z, ZE_spawnToPosition.z), math.max(ZE_spawnFromPosition.z, ZE_spawnToPosition.z) do
            centerPos.z = z
            for i, uid in pairs(getSpectators(centerPos, width, height, false)) do
                if(isMonster(uid)) then
                    doRemoveCreature(uid)
                end
            end
        end
    end
end

But I got this error when the event is started.
The error:
[17:36:45.558] [Error - GlobalEvent Interface]
[17:36:45.558] data/globalevents/scripts/zombie/autostart.lua:onTime

The cleanup works. But players cant enter the event teleport now. When a player tries, the item that blocks teleport appears (I changed it so it blockes the TP instead of deleting the TP), it worked before. The gamemaster can enter.

EDIT: Fixed that error by adding one more "end" in function doClean. I'll try the script now.

EDIT AGAIN: IT WORKS!! thanks :):)
