| What do you mean 10 minutes or more?
Do you need the command every 10 minutes? So first 10 minutes idle and then again at 20 minutes if you are still idle?
It's not quite what you want but every ten minutes this timer checks if you are looking at the world window, and if you aren't looking at the window the timer sends a command.
<timers>
<timer name="look_if_inactive" enabled="y" minute="10" second="0.00" offset_second="0.00" send_to="12"
>
<send>active = GetInfo(113)
if active == false then
Send("look")
end</send>
</timer>
</timers>

| i want just a simple trigger that send a message to the world if i'm not looking at the window at each interval of time. Lets say that i minimized the mushclient windown, so, i want that in each interval of 10 minutes the trigger send a simple command to the world, just to unable the game to kick me off for not being "playing"... just it, i dont think that's necessary to use a whole plugin... is it?
Regards

| Well it needs to know you are not playing, and the plugin I mentioned does that by checking if you have sent anything. Every time you send something it resets a timer, so that it starts counting again. If the time is up (and you can configure the time) it sends a specified command. So to stay logged in you could send "look" or "score" or some such thing.
The plugin is quite short, and the whole idea behind plugins was to save having to explain "make a trigger, two timers and an alias" to achieve something. It is all in the one spot. |

| | The instructions are on the plugins page I linked to above. Look for "How to install a plugin" near the bottom of the page. |
