[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1117231, member: 82144"] Hello again Richard In the past there was a "built-in" PS plugin, as well as a third party PS plugin with additional functionality. In a previous version of MP the "built-in" plugin was replaced with the third party plugin. Basically an upgrade. As long as you're not using an old version of the plugin, there's no reason not to be using it. Indeed, the wakeup time was set for 10:37 AM when the server went to sleep on 29 December: [2014-12-29 23:00:16,420] [Log ] [PS StandbyWakeup] [DEBUG] - PS: Set wakeup timer to wakeup system at 30/12/2014 10:37:00 The server was awake already.
