I just wrote this quick script because I thought having uptime shown on the fivem server list is very useful.

Installation

There’s no download because I didn’t justify someone downloading a file for the tiny code. Here’s how to very easily implement it to your server, simply read the installation manual and you should be good to go!

  1. Add the following to your server configuration file:
    add_ace resource.uptime command.sets allow
    In this case the resource has been named uptime (you can change it)
  2. Add the following to a server sided file:
Citizen.CreateThread(function()
	local uptimeMinute, uptimeHour, uptime = 0, 0, ''

	while true do
		Citizen.Wait(1000 * 60) -- every minute
		uptimeMinute = uptimeMinute + 1

		if uptimeMinute == 60 then
			uptimeMinute = 0
			uptimeHour = uptimeHour + 1
		end

		uptime = string.format("%02dh %02dm", uptimeHour, uptimeMinute)
		SetConvarServerInfo('Uptime', uptime)


		TriggerClientEvent('uptime:tick', -1, uptime)
		TriggerEvent('uptime:tick', uptime)
	end
end)

Didn’t you read the entire thread? Motivate why it’s ‘better’ to have a download

@TroooperCorentin

I am pretty sure you meant: I am a lazy fuck and would like to just download and extract it. or I am too stupid to create the files myself.

Hey Ice nice to see you active

14

Great release man! Keep it up :slight_smile:

It keep saying *sets command was denied in console on my server. I named it uptime and did
add_ace resource.uptime command.sets allow …

why your codes long and complicated
why are you use this function:

function FormatUptime(hour, minute)
	if hour <= 9 then
		hour = ('0%s'):format(hour)
	end

	if minute <= 9 then
		minute = ('0%s'):format(minute)
	end

	return ('%sh %sm'):format(hour, minute)
end

use this:

Citizen.CreateThread(function()
	local uptimeMinute = 0
	local uptimeHour = 0

	while true do
		Citizen.Wait(1000 * 60) -- each minute
		uptimeMinute = uptimeMinute + 1
	
		if uptimeMinute == 60 then
			uptimeMinute = 0
			uptimeHour = uptimeHour + 1
		end

		ExecuteCommand(string.format("sets Uptime \"%02dh %02dm\"", uptimeHour, uptimeMinute))
	end
end)

if you want this exact then use this:

Citizen.CreateThread(function()
	local starttick = GetGameTimer()
	while true do
		Citizen.Wait(15000) -- check all 15 seconds
		local tick = GetGameTimer()
		-- if you want days then use this:
		-- local uptimeDay = math.floor(tick-starttick)/86400000)
		-- if you use day then change the hour to this:
		-- local uptimeHour = math.floor(tick-starttick)/3600000) % 24
		local uptimeHour = math.floor((tick-starttick)/3600000)
		local uptimeMinute = math.floor((tick-starttick)/60000) % 60
		--if you want seconds then use this:
		--local uptimeSecond = math.floor((tick-starttick)/1000) % 60
		ExecuteCommand(string.format("sets Uptime \"%02dh %02dm\"", uptimeHour, uptimeMinute))
	end
end)

Because I’m not similar with the formatting, sorry for making you puke. I’ll improve the code thanks to you.

It keep saying * sets command was denied in console on my server. I named it uptime and did
