Why isn't this working?

So I'm basically trying to make a restart warning script but to test it I'm trying to make it execute after 3 minutes but waitUntil {serverTime == 180}; doesn't seem to be doing anything. Here is the full script.

[] spawn {
	_2hours =
		[
			[format["== WARNING =="],"<t align = 'center' shadow = '1' size = '0.8' color ='#E44646' font='PuristaBold'>%1</t><br />"],
			[format["Next restart in 2 hours...."],"<t align = 'center' shadow = '1' size = '0.6'>%1</t><br/>"]
		];

	_1hour =
		[
			[format["== WARNING =="],"<t align = 'center' shadow = '1' size = '0.8' color ='#E44646' font='PuristaBold'>%1</t><br />"],
			[format["Next restart in 1 hour...."],"<t align = 'center' shadow = '1' size = '0.6'>%1</t><br/>"]
		];

	_30minutes =
		[
			[format["== WARNING =="],"<t align = 'center' shadow = '1' size = '0.8' color ='#E44646' font='PuristaBold'>%1</t><br />"],
			[format["Next restart in 30 minutes...."],"<t align = 'center' shadow = '1' size = '0.6'>%1</t><br/>"]
		];

	_10minutes =
		[
			[format["== WARNING =="],"<t align = 'center' shadow = '1' size = '0.8' color ='#E44646' font='PuristaBold'>%1</t><br />"],
			[format["Next restart in 10 minutes...."],"<t align = 'center' shadow = '1' size = '0.6'>%1</t><br/>"]
		];

	_5minutes =
		[
			[format["== WARNING =="],"<t align = 'center' shadow = '1' size = '0.8' color ='#E44646' font='PuristaBold'>%1</t><br />"],
			[format["Next restart in 5 minutes...."],"<t align = 'center' shadow = '1' size = '0.6'>%1</t><br/>"]
		];

	_1minute =
		[
			[format["== WARNING =="],"<t align = 'center' shadow = '1' size = '0.8' color ='#E44646' font='PuristaBold'>%1</t><br />"],
			[format["Next restart in 1 minute...."],"<t align = 'center' shadow = '1' size = '0.6'>%1</t><br/>"]
		];

	while {true} do {
		waitUntil {serverTime == 180}; 
			[_2hours] spawn BIS_fnc_typeText;
		sleep 3600;
			[_1hour] spawn BIS_fnc_typeText;
		sleep 1800;
			[_30minutes] spawn BIS_fnc_typeText;
		sleep 1200;
			[_10minutes] spawn BIS_fnc_typeText;
		sleep 300;
			[_5minutes] spawn BIS_fnc_typeText;
		sleep 240;
			[_1minute] spawn BIS_fnc_typeText;
		sleep 59;
			serverCommand ('#login '+passwordAdmin);
			serverCommand ('#shutdown');
	};
};

serverTime doesn't sync in the first 5 minutes after server start, as far as I recall.

Also you're trying to check if serverTime == number, this will never return true, use >= instead.

That still didn't work, should I make it wait until about 10 minutes?

Bec with Firedaemon = flawless restarts with advance notice :)

serverCommand ('#login '+passwordAdmin);
serverCommand ('#shutdown');

this will never work, you need to use alt syntax version: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/serverCommand

my problem isn't shutting down the server. my problem is getting the notifications at the accurate time.
