How to create a system of doors that open by schedules

[Wananazo]

How could I put an object in motion per hour? For example, I want a door to have a time to open and close. For example, I want the door to close at 1:00 p.m. and open at 3:00 p.m.How could I put an object in motion per hour? For example, I want a door to have a time to open and close.

I already have the script to open and close doors but I would like to add the code to it so that it opens and closes at a specific time

Hi,

I've moved your thread to the main scripting section as this is the right place to post scripting-related questions. The tutorials section is reserved for posting, well... tutorials with the scope of teaching others.

Show your code pls

[Hydra]

you could achieve this with timestamp if i'm not wrong

[Wananazo]

local myGate2 = createObject (2957, 386.48864746094,-1526.0137939453,32.323436737061 , 0, 0, 45) --gate 2
    
function openMyGate()
    moveObject ( myGate2, 3000, 386.48864746094,-1526.0137939453,35.323436737061 )
end
addCommandHandler("*1abrir",openMyGate) -- change this command to open the door in a timer that opens automatically every so often, for example if the object opened it should remain open for one hour and if the object closed it should remain closed for one hour

function movingMyGateBack()
    moveObject ( myGate2, 3000, 386.48864746094,-1526.0137939453,32.323436737061)
end
addCommandHandler("*1cerrar",movingMyGateBack)

local myGate3 = createObject (2957, 394.81704711914,-1527.3861083984,32.330768585205 , 0, 0, 130) --gate 3

You could use getRealTime to get the current timestamp, calculate the seconds remaining until the next scheduled time point (which you can calculate with getTimestamp), and setTimer for the many milliseconds.

oh I understand

 

[Wananazo]

I have a question and I'm sorry I don't understand English very well what did it do here I've turned it around and I can't understand

if time.hour >= 1 and time.hour < 3 then --but this one I don't understand very well what it means to movingMyGateBack()
        movingMyGateBack()  --I understand that this is the call of the object in the time function
