As the title says, is " await asynco.sleep" inconsistent? my problem is, as you can see from my code below, it is meant to wait 24hrs, then send a private message to the user. From multiple tests i have run, the code does work if i set a short time (i have tested, 1min,2min,3min all the way up to 10min) however i would like it set for 24hrs.
Abit of background on how the code is run. I use replit and use uptime robot to ping the server to make sure it stays active. The bot does function as normal 24/7 apart from this await.
so, is it that "await Asyncio.sleep" only works consistently for smaller periods of time? or is it the way i am running the code, ie through replit and uptime bot? my reason to think it could maybe be uptime bot, is i assume, if it doesnt ping, the bot turns off? making it re-run the code? my only thought to why it cant be that, is, replit's seem to stay online for 5 minute without being pinged by uptime bot. So if uptime bot does not ping, id assume the Replit has some leway.Also if it did happen to turn off, it would mean i would have to manually turn it back on etc. however as i menioned above the rest of the code works 24/7 so im really lost!
If anyone has any advice for this novice, I would greatly appreciate it!
cheers!
