Command : DISABLE
NAME
disable - Disable Updates
Level: Expert
SYNTAX
[##:##] Command : disable
No updates will fire if you disable them. The "show updates" command will
report the fact.
Disabling updates this way does not stop the Empire clock. Stuff using the
clock, like BTU growth, continues normally. Should a scheduled update be
actually missed, however, the Empire clock automatically recalibrates, to
maintain the fixed number of ETUs between updates. This effectively stops the
clock.
You should not use this command as a tool for implementing your update sched-
ule! Enabling and disabling updates by hand is far too error prone, and your
players can't trust the show command to find out when the next update really
is. Use the update schedule file instead.
