Feature/Addon Request: Auto-broadcast for fleet op timers
Created by: armelthelae
Hey all!
Had a request from one of our alliance leaders, and figured I'd put it here to see if it's feasible since my own coding skills are still at the level of "stuck in a wet paper bag and can't code my way out".
Basic rundown: Add the ability (or an addon module that will give the ability) to have a fleet op timer auto-broadcast via Jabber a set time before the fleet. Times would be preconfigured (ex. 15 min, 30 min, 1 hr), and it would send to either "all" or a selectable group.
Example: User goes and creates a new fleet op timer for 01:30 on Friday. On this, there would be a checkbox for "Auto-broadcast to Jabber" and a 2 dropdown lists (disabled unless this checkbox is checked) to select the timeframe and group to send the broadcast to. User selects "all" and "30 minutes". At 01:00 on Friday, Auth sends a broadcast to "all" containing the fleet op data from the timer (Fleet comp, destination, etc) along with a message at the top stating "Fleet op in ."
Thoughts?
