Auto save timer...

Not sure if this is already implamented at all in any way but it didnt look like it to me so i added it to my server.. heres what i did

first in client.h..
around line 770 after

Code:

        Timer        shield_timer;

        Timer        fishing_timer;

add

Code:

Timer save_timer;

so it looks like..

Code:

        Timer        shield_timer;

        Timer        fishing_timer;

        Timer        save_timer;



#ifdef REVERSE_AGGRO

        Timer        scanarea_timer;

#endif

NEXT..
in client.cpp, around line 145
after..

Code:

        shield_timer(500),

        fishing_timer(8000),

add

Code:

save_timer(90000),

so it looks like

Code:

        shield_timer(500),

        fishing_timer(8000),

        save_timer(90000),



#ifdef REVERSE_AGGRO

        scanarea_timer(AIClientScanarea_delay),

#endif

Also,
in client.cpp, around line 212
after..

Code:

        pQueuedSaveWorkID = 0;

        position_timer_counter = 0;

add

Code:

save_timer.Enable();

so it looks like

Code:

        pQueuedSaveWorkID = 0;

        position_timer_counter = 0;

        save_timer.Enable();

        fishing_timer.Disable();

        shield_timer.Disable();

Last,
in client_process.cpp, around line 148
after..

Code:

                if (fishing_timer.Check()) {

                        GoFish();

                }

add..

Code:

                if (save_timer.Check()) {

                        Save(2);

                        Message(0, "%s successfully saved.", GetName());

                        save_timer.Start(90000);

                }

so it looks like..

Code:

                if (fishing_timer.Check()) {

                        GoFish();

                }



                if (save_timer.Check()) {

                        Save(2);

                        Message(0, "%s successfully saved.", GetName());

                        save_timer.Start(90000);

                }



                if (bardsong_timer.Check() && bardsong != 0) {

If anyone can tweak it any better than it is, please do so.

Hope this helps, and hope its readable :D

edit: i would make a .diff file but i duno how :(

edit2: could also put an #ifdef ASAVE_TIMER #endif around all the additions and add #define ASAVE_TIMER in features.h to make it optional

This is a good idea, bump this thread in a week or two if it does not get into CVS by then.

info on how to diff, feel free to expand on it:

hope this is a little more readable ;p
(I also changed the numbers a bit to make it less annoying)
