Scheduled announcements
Recurring and one-off messages posted on a schedule.
This is a Pro feature.
/subscribe to enable it./schedule add channel:#announcements message:Server restarts in 10 minutes cadence:daily time:17:50Four cadences: once, every N minutes, daily and weekly.
Everything is UTC
Times are UTC and every reply says so. Braven does not guess at your local timezone, because a schedule that silently drifts twice a year with daylight saving is worse than one you convert once.
After downtime
If the bot is down when an announcement was due, it does not fire a burst of catch-up posts when it comes back. It moves to the next real occurrence. Missing one announcement is much cheaper than sending twenty at once.
