Event listing

Description

Event Timer allows you to set timers for any event up to 170 hours in the future (1 week) for all characters on the same server. I use it to track Auctions, Quest cool-downs, and Guild Crafting items that have a cool-down timer. If you play multiple characters, it can really help to remember when to switch alts for an event. You can also use it to pass item links between alts. There is even a stand-alone version that lets you check on events when not running LOTRO.

Command summary:
"/et" Display event list
"/et clear" Clear all events
"/et name" Toggle name appending
"/et <#>" Delete event on line #
"/et <#> <hrs>" Change event time on line #
"/et <#> <desc>" Add event in # hours

Updates:
07/13/13: 1.1 _ Added ET_Reader for out-of-game display of events.
07/12/13: 1.0.1 _ Moved Options menu to Common folder.
02/10/13: 1.0 - Added auto-display setting to Plugin Manager Options tab.
02/09/13: 0.9 - Added support for Vinny Loader plugin
12/16/12: 0.8 - Changed directory structure for Plugin Compendium.
06/28/11: 0.7 - Added ReadMe file and released to public.

Now that the plugin exists I realize I can use that functionality. Downloading and will give it a try ;-)

Please consider renaming your folder structure from MyPlugins/EventTimer to something like VinnysPlugins/EventTimer similar to the other plugins authors, for consistency. I know it is not the best naming standard ;-)

Repeat timers

I expect to add a window, but I haven't found a nice way to insert links other than a command line and for craft and AH timers, links are the simplest description method.

I'd like to implement dates, but as I mentioned in the docs, there isn't a date conversion function available.

There is already an easy way to repeat an item. If you have a daily event that you just completed and its first on the list, all you need to do is enter "/et 1 24"

Maybe you could strip some stuff from http://www.lotrointerface.com/downlo...-Calendar.html ?

Here's a novel use for this plugin

Sometimes I can craft something on one of my alts but I'm not sure it if would be an improvement on what another alt has. The event description can include any text including item links, so creating a dummy event with the item link of what I'm thinking about crafting allows me to display it on my alt and compare it to what's already equipped.

Version 0.8

This update only changes the file structure to make it compatible with Plugin Compendium. There is not functional change.

Warning: If you are replacing an older version of this plugin, be sure to delete the old copy so that the plugin manager will find the right version.

That's because of the problem of using ',' instead of '.' in decimal values when saving data. I really wish the developers would fix that.

Turbine is the one that needs to fix the problem. I read about a work-a-round once, but don't recall where.

This one?
I try it, maybe it helps.

Would it be possible to change the "," manually?

Edit:
As suggested in the txt from the fix I replaced "Turbine.PluginData.Save" with "VindarPatch.PatchDataSave" and "Turbine.PluginData.Load" with "VindarPatch.PatchDataLoad"

I only changed the Lua from Eventimer.

As a result I got this:

Quote:

...he Rings Online\Plugins\Vinny\EventTimer\ET_Main.lua:13: attempt to index global 'VindarPatch' (a nil value)

After that I tried out the exe in the fix, which did nothing more than I did manually - change the load and save behavior in 3 plugins, including Cooking Reference.

Got the same error.

I would contact the author of the fix for help with using his code.

Version 1.0

I've finally added support for Plugin Manager with an icon and an Options setting to select whether to automatically display the current event list when ET loads.

I've also added support for a new plugin that I wrote called "Vinny Loader" that lets you load any of my plugins with just a single click. If it is already loaded, it will just open the plugin window (or in the case of ET, display the event list).
