Script working only one specified day.

[Vali]

Hi,

I'm looking to do an scrip that works only for one specified day when a monster is killed. I really do not know how to do the compare to do that if:

header of the script{
end;
OnNPCKillEvent:
if(date() == 20120404)  // This part
{
DoSomething();
}
}

Thank you.

you can try this

*gettime(<type>)
This function will return specified information about the current system time.
1 - Seconds (of a minute)
2 - Minutes (of an hour)
3 - Hour (of a day)
4 - Week day (0 for Sunday, 6 is Saturday)
5 - Day of the month.
6 - Number of the month.
7 - Year.
8 - Day of the year.
It will only return numbers.
   if (gettime(4)==6) mes "It's a Saturday. I don't work on Saturdays.";

sample:

- script npcname -1,{
end;

OnNPCKillEvent:
if(gettime(4)!=6) end;
DoSomething()

}

This script would work only on Saturday

Hi!, try this

set .@date$,""+20120404;
if(gettimestr("%Y%m%d",21)==.@date$)
{
//Do stuff
}

%Y - year

%m - months with leading zero when the value is 1 - 9

%d - day with leading zeros when the value is 1 - 9

%d - day with leading zeros when the value is 1 - 9

Good idea
