Command: setboot

Min level: 60

Log: always
Syntax: setboot time <hour> <minute>
setboot manual <0|1>
The setboot command is useful for planning a reboot, (to save you from
the trouble of all those echos :) ) and for the daily boot. The manual
bit is used by the mud to determine whether the boot time was set by
hand. When the mud starts up, the boot time is set to 0600hrs (6am)
and the manual bit to 0. If 'setboot time' is used, the mud sets the
manual bit to 1. When it comes time to do the reboot, the mud checks
how long it has been running. If it has been running less than 18
hours and the reboot time has not been set manually, the reboot does
not take place (nor do the automatic warning echoes).
Echoes: when a scheduled reboot is coming up, the mud will send out
echoes to that effect. The echoes start 30 minutes before the reboot
and are repeated at t minus 15, 10, 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1 minute(s).
