it seems that the disbanded team restore plugin runs periodically. Is there any way to lower the duration of how quickly it acts?

Hi hairybeanstalk,

it runs periodically, kind of.
my plugin has no timer or something that dictates how/when the teams are saved.
I listen to the event "save" (when the server saves bases, players, npcs etc.) and the oxide hook "onServerSave" (which is called by the "save" event).

This eventhook will be called every x minutes (you can change the setting "server.saveinterval" in the "server.cfg" or webinterface, if you rented the server).
The default value is 10 minutes if i remember correctly.

Increasing the period of servers saves means that player would lose more loot and playtime if the server would crash.
You could of course remove a part of my plugin so it does not listen to the oxide hook "onServerSave" but...
then the teams will be saved on the "onServerShutdown" event only. if the server would crash BEFORE this hook was called, it plugin would be useless haha


Enough talked about the technical background: the problem seems to lie somewhere else.
because saving 9 teams should not take SO LONG that the server lags.
i ran the plugin on a 500 pop server, so it was completely normal that over 150 teams with 2 or 3 members are saved. any we did not expect any noticable lag.

please open the plugin file (DisbandedTeamRestore.cs) and enable the debug mode by changing
private bool debug = false;
to
private bool debug = true;
this will give you a more detailed console output.

Then please have a look at the server console and note when the lag exactly happens. What does the console output in this moment?
I try to understand which of my functions could lead to a log. but please remember to enable the debug mode before.

Changed Status from Pending to Work in Progress

I believe this issue is not due to your plugin. Thank you for your time.
