Quick question about the option "Auto Start"
Sorry if this sounds stupid or is explained somewhere but I cannot find any documentation on what it does, as it doesn't seem to be auto starting anything that I can see with this mod.
"Auto Start" means that Census will start scanning the realm automatically without telling it to do so.
You can set the amount of time in between scans by using the /censusplus timer ## command. Where ## is the time you want in between the auto-scans.
For example
/censusplus timer 30
will set Census Plus to scan the realm automatically every 30mins. Only if the "Auto Start" option is checked. If the "Auto Start" option is not checked then this command is completely useless, and to get Census to run you have to open up the UI and click on the "Take" button.
Now depending on if you have the Verbose option checked you can tell that Census is scanning by opening up your "Who" window (press 'O' and click on the Who tab), you will see it displaying resuts automatically. This indicates that its doing a scan. Also it will display a message in your General chat window when the scan is starting, and it will display a message when its finished in blue letters with the results of the scan.
