EVENT DOCUMENTATION for Star Empire DOOR
Copyright (C) 1992 Antoine Le Huenen
Star Empire requires and event, to run its maintenance and update
features. Without it, the game will not advance properly, planets will
not produce, etc.
For Telegard Users, make an event that looks something like this:
Event #2 of 3
!. Active : Yes
1. Description: Star Empire Maintenance
2. Sched. type: DOS shell
3. Event data : STARVENT.BAT
4. Busy time : 1 minutes
5. Exec. time : 3:30
6. Busy during: Yes
7. Duration : 1
8. Days active: SMTWTFS
and add the following batch file to your main BBS directory. Call it
STARVENT.BAT:
echo off
cd \bbs\star
EVENT.EXE
cd \bbs
If you are using TELEGARD without a front door, you will find that the event
might execute two or three times. As this is not wanted, you might want to
add the SLEEP program included in this package to your batch file. That will
add a one minute delay after EVENT.EXE runs, so the minimum time telegard
allocates will pass. Change your batch file like this:
echo off
cd \bbs\star
EVENT.EXE
SLEEP.EXE
cd \bbs
And that's about it! Your Star Empire DOOR should now be ready to use!
