Idle disconnect

[DevArrah]

I was wondering if anyone has a idle disconnect script they might be willing to share. I.e. something that dc's you from the mud when you haven't entered a command for x minutes.

Not sure how to make a script like that, but you could make a timer for x minutes and have it send "quit" to the commandline when it goes off.

Could just make a small script, hooking onto the sysDataSendRequest event.

Code: Select all

function logoutTimer()
   killTimer(logout)
   local timeout = 600 -- Timeout in seconds
   logout = tempTimer(timeout, [[disconnect()]])
end

If your game has a "proper" way to log out, i.e. in the IRE games, we type QQ, simply change to:

Code: Select all

logout = tempTimer(timeout, [[send("qq")]])

Just add that event handler to the script and give the script the name of logoutTimer.

Should do the trick.
