<h1>Command Cooldown<a class="headerlink" href="#command-cooldown" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1>
|
||
<p>Some types of games want to limit how often a command can be run. If a
|
||
character casts the spell <em>Firestorm</em>, you might not want them to spam that
|
||
command over and over. Or in an advanced combat system, a massive swing may
|
||
offer a chance of lots of damage at the cost of not being able to re-do it for
|
||
a while. Such effects are called <em>cooldowns</em>.</p>
|
||
<p>This page exemplifies a very resource-efficient way to do cooldowns. A more
|
||
‘active’ way is to use asynchronous delays as in the <a class="reference external" href="Howto/Command-Duration.html#Blocking-Commands">command duration
|
||
tutorial</a>, the two might be useful to
|
||
combine if you want to echo some message to the user after the cooldown ends.</p>
|
||
<div class="section" id="non-persistent-cooldown">
|
||
<h2>Non-persistent cooldown<a class="headerlink" href="#non-persistent-cooldown" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
|
||
<p>This little recipe will limit how often a particular command can be run. Since
|
||
Commands are class instances, and those are cached in memory, a command
|
||
instance will remember things you store on it. So just store the current time
|
||
of execution! Next time the command is run, it just needs to check if it has
|
||
that time stored, and compare it with the current time to see if a desired
|
||
delay has passed.</p>

|
||
<p>We just check the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">lastcast</span></code> flag, and update it if everything works out.
|
||
Simple and very effective since everything is just stored in memory. The
|
||
drawback of this simple scheme is that it’s non-persistent. If you do
|
||
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">@reload</span></code>, the cache is cleaned and all such ongoing cooldowns will be
|
||
forgotten. It is also limited only to this one command, other commands cannot
|
||
(easily) check for this value.</p>

<h2>Persistent cooldown<a class="headerlink" href="#persistent-cooldown" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
|

<p>This is essentially the same mechanism as the simple one above, except we use
|
||
the database to store the information which means the cooldown will survive a
|
||
server reload/reboot. Since commands themselves have no representation in the
|
||
database, you need to use the caster for the storage.</p>

|
||
<p>Since we are storing as an <a class="reference internal" href="../Components/Attributes.html"><span class="doc">Attribute</span></a>, we need to identify the
|
||
variable as <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">firestorm_lastcast</span></code> so we are sure we get the right one (we’ll
|
||
likely have other skills with cooldowns after all). But this method of
|
||
using cooldowns also has the advantage of working <em>between</em> commands - you can
|
||
for example let all fire-related spells check the same cooldown to make sure
|
||
the casting of <em>Firestorm</em> blocks all fire-related spells for a while. Or, in
|
||
the case of taking that big swing with the sword, this could now block all
|
||
other types of attacks for a while before the warrior can recover.</p>
