ADD_SKY_EVENT(1) ADD_SKY_EVENT(1)
NAME
add_sky_event() - sets a function to be called every
change of time of day
SYNOPSIS
void add_sky_event(function f)
DESCRIPTION
This functions sets the mudlib to call the function you
specify every time the time of day changes. With the
Nightmare Mudlib time system, there are four changes in
time of day: dawn, morning, twilight, night. If you call
add_sky_event(), then any time the time of day changes,
the function you specified will be called with the time of
day as an argument.
EXAMPLES
add_sky_event((: howl :)) will have the function: void
howl(string str); get called in your object every change
in the time of day. The string argument is the time of
day, which will be one of dawn, morning, twilight, night.
NOTES
In general, this should be called only from create() in an
object. It definitely should only be called once for each
function to be called in an object. Also, it is
recommended that you set_no_clean(1) in any object which
does have functions set by this function to be called.
