This plugin will allow the server owner to be able to specify time duration for workbenches (Tier 2 and Tier 3 to be specific) to get unlocked.

This means that at the start of wipe (or whenever you trigger plugin's "wipe" command) the only craftable workbench would be workbench level 1. The remaining level 2 and level 3 will unlock after the specified time in the configuration.

Important

While the plugin will detect map wipes (as .sav files are removed for map wipes) and it will automatically refresh the workbench locks, it is important to note that the server owner/maintainer has to manually call the twwipe command for wipes that are Blueprint wipe only.

Permissions

• timedworkbench.admin — Gives access to all the commands below
• timedworkbench.skiplock — Allows crafting tier 2 and 3 regardless of lock status & time
• timedworkbench.info — Gives access to the twinfo command
• timedworkbench.toggle — Gives access to the twtoggle command
• timedworkbench.modifytime — Gives access to the setwbtime command
• timedworkbench.reload — Gives access to twreload command
• timedworkbench.wipe — Gives access to twwipe command

Note: The permission timedworkbench.admin is assigned by the plugin to the admin group automatically.

Commands

• twinfo — Retrieves the info of toggle status, workbenches lock status and time remaining for them to unlock
• twtoggle — Toggles the workbench locks in real-time. Toggling it OFF will unlock all workbenches regardless of time passed
• setwbtime — Modify the time it takes to unlock workbench after wipe. Syntax: setwbtime 2/3 time in seconds. Example: setwbtime 2 14400 — Will unlock Workbench Level 2 after 4 hours into the wipe.
• twreload — Reload the configuration file. This is required if the config file was modified or setwbtime was used while the server is running
• twwipe — Wipe the config and start fresh. This resets the "wipe" date for the plugin. Locks use the time this command was used as a reference to unlock the higher tier workbenches after specified time has passed.
