Due to the start-delay-timer holding a reference to the
auto-start-timer as its internal callback, the start-delay-timer
should be stopped, when both timers should be stopped.
The StartDelayTimer wraps the AutoStartTimer and provides a means of
"locking" the lobby until a configurable time has passed. During this
time, it is possible for other players to join the lobby and ready up,
but the arena will not start until the StartDelayTimer has run out,
after which the AutoStartTimer is started (if applicable).
New per-arena setting: start-delay-timer: [seconds]
New announcement: arena-start-delay
This framework consists of interfaces and classes for managing various
kinds of timers. The Timer interface models a timer with configurable
tick intervals. The TimerCallback interface provides a means of adding
logic to the following timer events: onStart, onStop, onFinish and
onTick.
Timer implementations include a CountdownTimer (kitchen timer), and a
StopwatchTimer, which should both be self-explanatory.
The purpose of this framework is to add a means of creating a very
generalized approach to timers, in hopes of abstracting away some of
the Bukkit scheduling for easy maintenance and increased portability.
Future work:
- Port auto-start-timer
- Port boss abilities
- Port spawner
- Create 'delay-timer' as per DBO ticket request.
- Create various types of cooldowns, delays, etc.
When the WaveManager is queried for the next wave to be spawned via
the next() method, it now returns a copy of the wave instead of the
wave itself. This is because waves (boss waves in particular) have
state, and this state is transferred to the next occurrence of the
given wave. This caused recurrent boss waves to inconsistently share
state, which resulted in the BossAbilityThread bailing early after
the first occurrence of the boss wave it belonged to. By copying
the initial wave state in the WaveManager, the issue is fixed.
