Trig time block

trig_time_block is a Extended Trigger Before Move trigger. It blocks a PC from going a given direction for the specified start and end times. May be combined with other trig_time_block triggers. If time falls outside of specified times, access is granted. Time wrapping is not supported, so specifying times that extend past midnight will not work as expected. The specified times are include the listed start and end hours. Though it is possible to stack trig_time_block special functions to block multiple time ranges, keep in mind that if you do so, you should not include a success message. The reason is that the success message would display if the first trigger was successful, but a subsequent trigger could block the exit, resulting in both success and failure messages being displayed.

Usage:

Q <room vnum> <door direction> trig_time_block <start time (00-23)> <end time (00-23)> <success msg or -1> <fail msg or -1> -1
