mckenziebrother Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 Hi, i'm not an admin or anything, but i thought to something for the plot poles... Ingame, it's not necessarily easy to remember the maintenance days. Is it impossible to add a maintenance countdown before the next items despawn? Then if you force the maintenance like you can now, you would synchronize all items on the same maintenance time. It would be really REALLY handful for everyone ingame and avoid troubles linked to maintenance like whole bases despawning :O I think the idea was already thrown to you... but who know... :) Have a good day :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LunatikCH Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 would be a nice feature, exile uses this. I mean the datestamp/lastupdated exist in the database i guess it would be possible to add something based on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salival Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 It's a pretty good idea, I've not seen anything that lets you reference a lastupdated call from the database so it would need a custom hivedll or a seperate dll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mckenziebrother Posted February 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 btw, i just learnt from our admins that the option to force maintenance on the plot pole is bugged on our server... it takes the money, but there's no maintenance done >< only the normal maintenance works >< it's been a week like that they say........ >< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salival Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 Need a bit more information than that, I wrote that and it works fine for me. Need client and or server rpt log to see what's going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mckenziebrother Posted February 11, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2017 Also, it would be great and useful if the plot poles were displaying the plot pole owner's name. So we would know who's our neighbor, who we are visiting, and we would know who to warn if his base starts to despawn! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingpapawawa Posted April 4, 2017 Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 seems like i remember seeing a feature like this on trainwreckdayz's 1051 server Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonTM Posted April 4, 2017 Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 Firecock Gaming used to have this on their servers. I think they were running a custom DLL though. They also had hived global banking. Their plotObjects.sqf had code at the bottom for getting the last maintained date and there was an extra define for it in plotManagement.hpp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigEgg Posted April 4, 2017 Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 I think this would be easier if you just made a countdown based on the damage of the objects within the plot area. @JasonTM - Firecock used ArmaNET. JasonTM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see. I looked through the website for the ArmaNET mod. It looks interesting, but a lot of extra hassle unless you were running 20 servers like Firecock used to.
