Schedules & Timers

This page explains how to create and manage scheduled and repeating tasks for your server. Users can configure tasks that execute commands at specific times or intervals.

Configuration File: schedules.yml

The schedules.yml file defines all scheduled and repeating tasks.

Example Structure

schedules:
  daily_reward:
    enabled: true
    type: fixed
    time: "12:00" # 12:00 PM
    days: [MONDAY, WEDNESDAY, FRIDAY] # Only runs on these days
    actions:
      - "[console] say Daily reward executed!"

  xp:
    enabled: true
    type: repeatable
    interval: 300 # Every 300 seconds (5 minutes)
    actions:
      - "[console] xp give %player% 5"
      - "[message] &aYou have received 5 Level XP!"

  hourly_announcement:
    enabled: true
    type: repeatable
    interval: 3600 # Every 3600 seconds (1 hour)
    actions:
      - "[console] broadcast A new challenge has started!"

  midnight_reset:
    enabled: true
    type: fixed
    time: "00:00" # Midnight
    actions:
      - "[console] say Midnight reset triggered!"

Behavior

Fixed Tasks

• If no days are specified, the task runs every day at the given time.

• If days are specified, the task runs only on those days at the given time.

Repeatable Tasks

• Executes for all online players at the specified interval.

• Runs continuously at the defined interval unless manually disabled.
