Scheduler

Event scheduler

Auto-start rifts without an admin online. Multi-rule interval/cron scheduler (v1.1). Opt-in — disabled by default.

Enable

Set scheduler.enabled: true in config.yml. When the new scheduler is enabled, it takes over auto-starts. When disabled, legacy settings.auto-events still works.

scheduler:
  enabled: true
  min-players: 1
  skip-if-rift-active: true
  announce-countdown-seconds: 60
  rules:
    - id: evening
      enabled: true
      type: interval   # interval | cron
      interval-seconds: 2700
      events: [nether_breach, void_incursion]
      worlds: [world]
      location-mode: near-random-player  # near-random-player | fixed | player-list-spots
      fixed-locations: []

Rule fields

• type: interval (seconds) or cron (5-field expression)
• events: pool of event preset ids — weighted pick from that list
• worlds: restrict which worlds the rule may use
• location-mode: near a random online player, fixed coords, or player-list spots
• announce-countdown-seconds: global countdown broadcast before fire (0 = immediate)

Admin commands

• /rift scheduler status — next fire times per rule
• /rift scheduler reload — restarts the scheduler after YAML edits
• /rift next — ETA until the soonest scheduled attempt
