Separate scheduling option for 'full-gc' #256

Open tesseract-two opened 1 year ago

tesseract-two commented 1 year ago

A separate scheduling option for running the full garbage collection system would be useful. That way you wouldn't end up with massive backups or having to manually prune and garbage collect, and it also wouldn't affect gameplay. E.g schedule it to run once a day, at 4:00 am.

Understood. But I guess I'd be a little wary of going too far down the path with scheduling features. If someone has more advanced needs, there are better tools for that sort of thing than I will ever be able to build, e.g this mod: https://github.com/lynnpye/cronmc/wiki or simply cron. I think a lot of hosting services have this built in as well.

That makes sense, would you like me to close this?
