I am still working on my first script but can't get it to work. i redid the thing multiple times. Butt I am still getting errors.

The script is supposed to limit playtime. everyday the players get an amout of additional time to play. Players should be able to save up to 50 hours.

Can someone please help me fix this error and any other that pop up? That would be really appreciated!

📎 server.txt 📎 playtime2.js

if(event.player.persistentData.playtime >= event.player.persistentData.allowedtotalplaytime) {
    callback.server.runCommand("/kick " + player.getName().getString() + " Time to take a break!")
}

if(event.player.persistentData.playtime >= event.player.persistentData.allowedtotalplaytime) {
    callback.server.runCommand("/kick " + event.player.getName().getString() + " Time to take a break!")
}

Please exchange that first, we look further if a error occurs. ^^

Note: simple add event. bevor player.getName()

I changed that, thank you for the help

#

Now there are no errors after /reload

#

But i am getting an error when trying /playtime

#

Yep I already know about that. I tested your code a bit.
The problem is neither 'Serer' nor 'Player' is defined, my application is with Player so first delete:

Server.runCommand...

And then write... while also exchanging every event.player with player.

let player = ctx.source.entity.asKJS();

#

Something like

let player = ctx.source.entity.asKJS();
player.tell("you have " + String(Math.floor(((player.persistentData.allowedtotalplaytime - player.persistentData.playtime) / 1200)) + " minutes remaining"));
return 1;

#

That seems to work, thank you once again.

#

I doubt this is the end of my troubles, but i am going to test it on my server with friends now.

#

Can I dm you if any problems occur?

signal turret Apr 23, 2023, 3:18 PM

#

Yes you can DM me. But before I already tested a bit and got some troubles.
You need to set playtime to 0 when someone logs out, just add that to log out event.

#

Or you can make a timer/command for that to ensure that they can't just rejoin after being kicked once

ashen frigate Apr 23, 2023, 3:27 PM

#

the playtime not going to 0 is by design because the totalallowedplaytime of a player also doesn't reset either. I did this because i found it a hassle to calculate the allowedplaytime for a player who has been offline for a while, because dailyplaytime can change and should not effect days that have already past.

#

and as for the can't rejoin after kick, I thought I already took car of that.

#

How do i get one of those fancy code boxes in discord?

ashen frigate How do i get one of those fancy code boxes in discord?

You can either directly upload the js file in discord or you write it as message between
```
Some code
```

event.server.schedule(1, event.player, function (callback) {
        if(event.player.persistentData.online == 0) {
            //if the player disconnected, stop this loop.
            return
        }
        if(event.player.persistentData.playtime >= event.player.persistentData.allowedtotalplaytime) {
            callback.server.runCommand("/kick " + event.player.getName().getString() + " Time to take a break!")
        }
        callback.reschedule(MINUTE)
    })

#

I thought this bit checked every minute whether the person has exceeded their total allowed playtime

#

and kick them if they did

#

and the first time it checks is one tick after login

signal turret Apr 23, 2023, 3:34 PM

#

Yes it kicks them when the playtime extends the allowed playtime but the playtime never degreases and they can't come back on the server

signal turret Apr 23, 2023, 3:34 PM

#

ashen frigate and the first time it checks is one tick after login

Yep

ashen frigate Apr 23, 2023, 3:35 PM

#

but event.player.persistentData.allowedtotalplaytime does increase

#

onEvent('level.tick', event => {
    tracker += 1
    if(tracker >= 1728000){
        totalallowedplaytime += dailyplaytime
    }
})

#

and

#

event.player.persistentData.allowedtotalplaytime = totalallowedplaytime * 72000

#

is done before the check happens in onEvent('player.logged_in', event => {

signal turret Apr 23, 2023, 3:38 PM

#

Oh I didn't know for what you made them it was for that.

ashen frigate Apr 23, 2023, 3:39 PM

#

i forgot to reset tracker to 0 tho

#

onEvent('level.tick', event => {
    tracker += 1
    if(tracker >= 1728000){
        totalallowedplaytime += dailyplaytime
        tracker = 0
    }
})

#

else the player gets more playtime every tick after 24 hours

signal turret Apr 23, 2023, 3:44 PM

#

ashen frigate ``` onEvent('level.tick', event => { tracker += 1 if(tracker >= 1728000)...

I did some testing but you should do some on your own.
And I would rather make it like that ... and put it into log in event.

event.server.schedule(1728000, event.player, callback => {
    totalallowedplaytime += dailyplaytime;
})

ashen frigate Apr 23, 2023, 3:45 PM

#

thats a good idea

#

I will do that and I will test it on my server

signal turret Apr 23, 2023, 3:45 PM

#

signal turret I did some testing but you should do some on your own. And I would rather make i...

Ah and don't forget the reschedule like I did lmao

ashen frigate Apr 23, 2023, 3:45 PM

#

sure lol

#

thx for the help, i will close this one now. If I run into any more isseus I will DM you.

signal turret Apr 23, 2023, 3:47 PM

#

Yep then good luck testing. ^^
