New feature: Events!

[Tucker]

For some time we had resources that were quite large and they were be on all the time. This was a major drag on the server and could contribute to de-synchronization. As such, they were made into events. Currently we have only four events available.

This new command is only available to Gangs/Teams and up. It was made Gangs/Teams to limit abuse from passing newbies and to give back to active members.

How to use the command:

Syntax:	/startevent tag
Example:	/startevent monza

Name	Tag	Duration	Location
San Fierro Race	sfrace	30 minutes	North of SF harbor, near SF bridge
Prison	prison	30 minutes	SF Harbor, near SF bridge
DriftKingz Race Track	dktrack	30 minutes	LS Harbor, southeastern most part of map
Monza Grand Prix	monza	30 minutes	East of LS above the ocean

Cool.  Just adding a bit of info, the entrance for SF Race track is in the port town above SF called Bayside.

wait wait wait ....when i type the start event /startevent monza it says [You do not have acces to this command] why because im not in a gang or team ?

Austin use your mind.

Imagine if this would be a public command and everyone would be able to use it. We would have lots of spam and abuses. So i think this command is reserved for Admins Only.

If it was admin only, why would I post it publicly and not just in the admin section? Yes, it's Teams/Gangs only. A lot of our commands are becoming Teams/Gangs only to prevent spam and to give back to people who participate in making WCG great.

Luffy, remember that agreement you are part of for your unban awhile ago? False information, and butting your nose in where you don't know.

I was just wondering if the DriftKingz Race Track could be changed to 1 hour Duration instead of 30 minutes, it isnt quite long enough.

Thanks,

I'll change that one. 30 minutes was our test mark, and the other night showed DK should be extended. I do have a planned feature of adding an /extend command to the system at a later date.

So could there be events for other gangs, such as Mafia,Police, or HR?

Theoretically possibly. However, we're working on modifying the current set of event style resources we have to work with the system. As such, no plans for brand new ones.

This is a bump, but I was wondering if you could put a command in to stop an event if there isn't one already? Because I was testing the quarry one and I started it without being inside. So is there anyway to stop an event or do you have to wait for the timer to run out?
