How can i calculate respawn time ?

[spartakos77]

Can someone help me understand how that works ?

 

For example i have barakiel respawn_time : 1371557489832

 

How do i know when is that ?

[Trance]

It's in seconds.

Thats miliSeconds, it will respawn when system.currentTimeMilis() == 1371557489832

Yeah, it should be miliseconds... anyway you can google it here are link that may help.

nope, 1371557489832 cant be a countdown, it is very big so it can be a countdown, its just currentTimeMilis() , with some basic knowledge you can understand what I said above

[xdem]

for some weird reason, couldnt edit my previous post,

 

so, to know how much time is left for the respawn, you have to use (1371557489832 - System.currentTimeMilis()) / 1000 to return how many seconds are left

1371557489832 was an example.

You should try to divide this number, you're going to have a rest.

So the number was not used as default, developers use numbers without rest(in general).

Well i don't have any basic knowledge

We see, you're just copying someone's reply, in this case you agree with xdem.

dude, its obvius that this is not a countdown but the CurrentMilis which will trigger the spawn, 1371557489832  = 40 years so definetly its a feature System.currentTimeMilis(), so to get how much time remains you have to use the formula I gave before

You didn't get my point.

And i wanna help too so my suggestion is to calculate them with LOVE!

Good luck :D

I don't know if I'm any help, but try this:

      long time = 1371557489832l;
      Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
      c.setTimeInMillis(time);
      System.out.println(c.getTime().toString());

If I'm not mistaken, all values in time in l2j are written like this: System.currentTimeMillis() + xTime

So with this I think you should get your answer.

Ps. if I'm mistaken please correct me! :D

[xdem]

yeap its the same way as mine, but mine returns seconds left

 

he should rather use http://www.ruddwire.com/handy-code/date-to-millisecond-calculators/

 

to avoid java

[spartakos77]

Wow thats a lot of answers!! Thanks guys and sorry i didnt reply earlier ..i was sleeping :P

 

So if i get this right the number in database is not a countdown .... its just the date and hour that the raid boss will respawn .

That was really helpful thanks man :)
