Time limit on zone

[Randymarsh9]

How would I make a quest that did this: I want a timer to start when the person zones in, and then 10 minutes later kick them back to Pok. I don't know where I would put that quest if I wrote it.

Easily done. You'd use player.pl, and set a 10 minute timer under sub EVENT_ENTERZONE. Then, under sub EVENT_TIMER when it expires, move them to PoK. The timer would be on the individual player, so you will have multiple timers going at once for multiple players.

So, basically would it be something like this:

sub EVENT_ENTERZONE{
quest::settimer("zonekick",30);
}
sub EVENT_TIMER{
if ($timer eq "zonekick"){
 quest::stoptimer("zonekick");
 quest::movepc(202, -107,-190.-156);
 }
}

I have never used timers in any quests before, so I'm not sure what I'm doing

Yep, that's exactly it, except that timer is for 30 seconds.

Haha, yeah because I was planning on testing it and didn't want to wait 10 minutes to see if it ported me.

[cavedude]

Yeah I do the same.
