feat: Add XP window and announce options

[EricksOliveira]

What and why

Closes #32. The bonus was hard-coded to Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Admins can now pick the days and the daily start and end hour with XPWeekend.Days, XPWeekend.StartHour and XPWeekend.EndHour, and the defaults keep the old behaviour. With XPWeekend.AnnounceStartEnd = 1 (off by default), players are also told when the bonus starts and ends, with texts set in XPWeekend.StartMessage and XPWeekend.EndMessage. Nothing in the core changes.

Decisions worth knowing

• The config is a list of days plus one daily start and end hour. A listed day is the day the bonus starts. An EndHour lower than StartHour crosses midnight, and an equal one means 24 hours, which is how 0 and 0 cover the whole day.
• LoadConfig() parses the three options once per config load (startup and .reload config) into an hour-of-week mask, because IsEventActive() runs on every XP gain. The older options still use their per-call getters.
• A bad day entry is logged and ignored, an hour outside 0-23 is logged and reset to 0, and an empty Days means the window never opens.
• Days and hours follow the server clock, which players see as realm time. Players are spread over many time zones, so one shared clock avoids confusion.
• OnWorldUpdate() checks the state once a second and, with XPWeekend.AnnounceStartEnd = 1, broadcasts when it changes. Windows that touch each other give one start and one end, a server that starts inside a window stays quiet, and switching Enabled or AlwaysEnabled with .reload config counts as a start or an end. The start text is also sent at login, even with XPWeekend.Announce = 0, except while AlwaysEnabled = 1. The switch is off by default, so a server that updates gets no new messages.

Review guide

• src/mod-double-xp-weekend.cpp is the part worth a close look: the mask arithmetic in LoadConfig(), with the modulo that wraps Saturday night into Sunday, and the state changes in OnWorldUpdate(). SendWorldText("{}", message) needs the "{}" because that overload is the one that loops over every session, and it keeps the admin's text out of the format string. IsEventActive() now uses Acore::Time::TimeBreakdown() instead of localtime().
• conf/mod-double-xp-weekend.conf.dist and README.md are mechanical.
• feat: Add weekend skill, rep and gold bonus #47 also edits IsEventActive() and adds a DoubleXpWeekendWorldScript with OnAfterConfigLoad. The two PRs are independent, so whichever merges second has to merge those by hand.

Known gaps

• The existing login text "It's the weekend!" is unchanged, so it also shows on other days when XPWeekend.Days lists them.
• .weekendxp config doesn't list the new options.
• Tested in game: the start text at login, both broadcasts, the XP rate inside and outside the window, and .reload config. Not tested in game: a window that crosses midnight, the 24 hour window, an empty message, invalid entries, a .conf without the new options, and AlwaysEnabled or Enabled overriding the window. These tests were done before the XPWeekend.AnnounceStartEnd switch was added.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features
  • The XP bonus follows a configurable schedule, defaulting to Friday through Sunday, all day, in server-local time. Set active days and daily start and end hours, including overnight schedules.
  • Optional announcements notify online players when the bonus starts or ends. Players logging in during an active bonus are also notified unless AlwaysEnabled is set to 1.
  • Configure the start and end messages, or leave announcements disabled by default.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The XP bonus now uses a configurable weekly schedule with server-local hours. The module checks the schedule during world updates and can send configured messages when the event starts or ends. The README and distributed configuration describe the schedule and announcement settings.

Changes

Weekend XP Schedule

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Configure and evaluate the schedule conf/mod-double-xp-weekend.conf.dist, src/mod-double-xp-weekend.cpp	The configuration adds weekday and start/end hour settings. The module loads these values, handles invalid entries, and checks the current weekday and hour against the configured schedule.
Announce event state changes src/mod-double-xp-weekend.cpp, conf/mod-double-xp-weekend.conf.dist, README.md	The module checks event state during world updates. When announcements are enabled, it broadcasts a non-empty configured message after a state transition. It can also send the start message to a player who logs in during the event, except when AlwaysEnabled is set. The README and configuration describe these options.

Explanation

Issue #32 covers configurable bonus days and time. The pull request also adds XPWeekend.AnnounceStartEnd, XPWeekend.StartMessage, and XPWeekend.EndMessage, plus login and world-update broadcasts. The README and config document these announcement features. Issue #32 does not request announcements, and no other active directly linked issue supplies this scope.

Self-review — feat-configurable-weekend-window → master

Outcome 9 findings — 7 fixed, 2 dismissed — no correctness findings in the code — final round clean

Reviewed 53bfe97 (feat-configurable-weekend-window vs upstream/master, merge-base diff — 3 files, +204 −8)

By Claude Code (desktop app), Opus 5.5 (claude-opus-5-5) — self-review v0.14, 2026-10-10

Build compiled without errors by the author; the tested binary has the same C++ as 53bfe97 (only .conf.dist / README text changed after it)

In-game testing (author) tested: start message on login while active; start and end broadcasts at the configured hour (realm time); XP doubled inside the window and normal outside; .reload config applying new days/hours. Not tested: empty message, window crossing midnight / 24-hour window, options absent from the .conf, invalid Days / hours, AlwaysEnabled / Enabled precedence

Review details (6 rounds; rounds 1–3 in SELF-REVIEW.md and SELF-REVIEW-2.md)

Intent Make the days and hours of the weekend XP bonus adjustable in the module config
(#32), keeping all day Friday, Saturday and Sunday as the default, and
announce to players when the bonus starts and ends with texts set in the config — all in server
(realm) time.

Project rules .agents/docs/self-review-rules.md found and applied

Metadata 1f72c5ac7c29c3cc5bfd9b5c74d0154077f72d5d

Carried from rounds 1–3 (b22ef42 full review, then commit message only):

1. commit message — title 52 chars, two body lines 73/75 chars, over the module's
   .git_commit_template.txt limits (50/72) → fixed
2. src/mod-double-xp-weekend.cpp:88 — login text "It's the weekend!" now also shows on
   non-weekend days when XPWeekend.Days lists them → dismissed: Changing the login text is
   out of scope for Weekend time adjustable  #32. With the default config the bonus still only runs Friday to Sunday, so
   the text stays correct by default; only admins who choose other days see it, and the README
   now explains the configurable window.
3. commit title — lacked the Scope the module template's Type(Scope/Subscope) format
   requires → fixed

Commit amends applied by the agent at the author's request.

Round 4 — 6713fa2, delta since 519dd90 (start/end messages, OnUpdate, docs, commit body), 4 findings

4. conf/mod-double-xp-weekend.conf.dist:82 — says StartMessage is not sent with
   AlwaysEnabled = 1, but the broadcast fires on any state change, including .reload config
   toggles of Enabled / AlwaysEnabled → fixed (text)
5. conf/mod-double-xp-weekend.conf.dist:79 — "sent at StartHour of a listed day" hides that
   touching windows announce one start and one end, and that a mid-window server start does not
   broadcast → fixed (text)
6. src/mod-double-xp-weekend.cpp:101 — login gate reads config per login, against the
   "read once and cache" guideline → dismissed: The login gate reuses the module's existing
   per-call getters, which the same function already calls a few lines above (:85, :90); a login
   is not a hot path and the values read are correct. Caching the existing options is a separate
   refactor that PR feat: Add weekend skill, rep and gold bonus #47 already does for the whole module, so it stays out of this PR to avoid a
   larger conflict.
7. commit subject — described only the window, not the new default-on announcements; body
   omitted the AlwaysEnabled login exception → fixed

Round 5 — 1c333e2, round 4 fixes (.conf.dist text, commit message), 2 findings

8. conf/mod-double-xp-weekend.conf.dist:82 — the new broadcast-only sentences read as also
   covering the login message, which is sent at any login during the bonus → fixed (text)
9. README.md:16 — "players who log in during the bonus are told it is active" lacked the
   AlwaysEnabled = 1 exception, contradicting the .conf.dist → fixed (text)

Round 6 — 53bfe97, round 5 fixes (.conf.dist and README text), clean

heads up, the build failure here comes from the core. The module compiles and the worldserver dry run starts, then the job stops at "Check startup errors" because of this line in Errors.log:

Spell `62821` of script `spell_hodir_toasty_fire_aura` does not have apply aura effect - handler bound to hook `DoCheckProc` of AuraScript won't be executed

That DoCheckProc was added today in azerothcore/azerothcore-wotlk#28063 (d1b090479), and core master CI is failing on it too. The run on 68b1fec passed before that commit landed, so a re-run should pass once the core is fixed.
