    Hello,

    I have few ideas how to achieve it, but I would like a second opinion for a method that would definitely do what I want, instead of me bumping into many problems half way and having to work around it.

    Cheers !

    I suppose you could use this to get which day it currently is?

    Code:
    DateTime.Today.DayOfWeek

    Im considering using Cron Library for Rust | Oxide to help me out with timed event execution as the command would have to be executed at a certain hour. However, what can be done about the actual execution of a command ? How do I call "grant group default permission.allow" ?

    [EDIT]: Nwm, found it: ConsoleSystem.Run(ConsoleSystem.Option.Server.Quiet(), "grant group default permission.allow", null);

    You don't need top run a command, just call the permission.GrantGroupPermission method directly.

    What would be an exact syntax for that ?

    e.g. "permission.GrantGroup(default, permission.allow) ?

    GrantGroupPermission(string name, string perm, Plugin owner)

    permission.GrantGroupPermission("default", "permission.allow", this);

    No errors in console, but it doesn't do anything when called either.

    That's the same method that the command uses to grant the permission, so should work fine.

    //ConsoleSystem.Run(ConsoleSystem.Option.Server.Quiet(), "grant group default permission.allow", null);
    permission.GrantGroupPermission("default", "permission.allow", this);

    Got them both on the same line when called. This does nothing, but if I swap comment outs, it works.

    Try with null instead of this for the method.

    Just did, no reaction whatsoever.
    [DOUBLEPOST=1507168235][/DOUBLEPOST]Also, while on similar topic, is there a way to call chat commands via plugin as admin ? Cos my other option would be re-write other plugins to have console commands registered.

    If a chat command expects a player, they will error as the server console doesn't really have a player; so it depends on the command.

    No, commands would be of similar nature as "/kits resetdata"

    If they have any sort of reply to the player, they'd error.

    No SendReply, just /data folder management
    [DOUBLEPOST=1507170245][/DOUBLEPOST]So what would be the command to call it ?
