Anyone know how I can make a command fire 15 minutes after %time as a one off alarm.
ive been playin with the syntax and i cant work it out.

This one should go off tonight at 9:04 pm your time.
Select all of the code in the box below copy it then paste it into the command line and hit enter.
Then find the alarm in the settings editor and set the trigger ID to AlOnce.
| Code: |
| #ALARM {20:04:00} {#if (%match( %time, "Thursday February 8, 2007 9:04:%d")=1) {#untrigger AlOnce;#gag;#alarm +15:00 {#say Alarm fired.}}} |
In Zmud there was a bug in the Alarm creation code if I exported and reimported this after having set the ID. I'll check it in cMud when I get home.
Oddly enough if I used + for the time It would not trigger at the correct time but only wait that amount of time before firing.
edit: Lol Taz posted while I was playing with it. |

Just a note, you can set Alarm IDs with the #ALARM command in the same way you can set trigger IDs with the #trig command, like in Taz' example.

Well don't worry because I farted about with %time and %float and %eval for a while before remembering that it wasn't that difficult to do direct with #alarm because of course there is no difference between using %time to get the time now and giving it that +15:00 which does one 15 mins from now.
