I'm using the event script with v2.3 build 280 to stop and start the server for maintenance. I tested the stop/start entries at 5pm and it looked good. Then I set the stop time to midnight and after that time passed, I noticed the log panel had a date, but no time entry for the stop command. I check the log file and it has the same problem, no time.

Below is:
 the log, showing a good entry, (IPs changed, password entries removed)
 the event code
 screen capture of the log panel

Code: [Select]

[at 0:00]
{.stop server.}
{.add to log|Server Stopped.}
[at 0:30]
{.start server.}
{.add to log|Server Started.}

The extra entries are for debugging, I had the syntax wrong at first and just haven't removed them yet.

interesting!
the text formatting for the timestamp is actually discarding the time because it's perfectly 0:00, and it thinks we are just wasting zeroes :D (digits of precision, too long to explain it better).

Anyway, since this only happens in such case, i don't think it's a big problem.
To avoid it, just move your event at 0:01.

I wonder why you stop the service for 30 minutes, anyway. :)

As a work-around I had changed it to 11:59, but thought you should know. Threw my log processing for a loop.

As to why, I do some other processing which takes progressively longer as the month goes on, so I wanted users to get used to a set amount of downtime. Cuts down on the whinging.  ;)
