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, the exit may be used. 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. When using multiple trig_time_block triggers, any desired success message should only be specified for the last trig_time_block trigger, so that the correct message is 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
