Scheduled Messages

TRPG groups sometimes need scheduled messages—for example session reminders or countdowns to submission deadlines.

The scheduler has two modes: .at .cron mins hours delete show

【at】 Send once at a specified time

Enter .at 20220604 1900 (YYYYMMDD HHMM) .at 5mins (in 5 minutes) .at 5hours (in 5 hours) to post a message at the specified time.

Dice Support

Wrap commands in [[]]. Example: .at 5hours [[CC 60]] [[立FLAG]]

【cron】 Post daily or on a schedule at a set time (24-hour clock)

Format

Enter a 24-hour time such as 2300, then optionally use - followed by a number like 1, 2, 3 for interval in days, or mon tue wed thur friday sat sun for specific weekdays.

Examples

on 0831 Howl every day at 8:31!

.cron 0721 Roll every day at 7:21 [[CC 80 幸運]]

.cron 1921-2 I will post every two days at 7:21 PM

.cron 1921-wed-mon I will post every Monday and Wednesday at 7:21 PM

Custom Name and Avatar for Scheduled Messages (Patreon Only)

Add name and link after the time to post as a custom identity, like .meX.

Example

.cron 2258 name=Sad link=https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/23254376/113255717-bd47a300-92fa-11eb-90f2-7ebd00cd372f.png First line [[2d3 Second line]] hello world footer
