  This example will push the connected list number 69 of current Map upon entering a Morning of Season of New Year and release it when leaving that day. The source of the push and release will be the object the event is embedded in.
+ 
+ ===== Changing object depending on time =====
+ Those scripts can exchange object at specific period of times. When entering a matching period, the object for which the event is trigger get replaced by an object stored in the event. When leaving the matching period of time, the original object is restored and the replacement object is put back inside the event, hidden to the players. With this system you can replace any object with any other object. Typical use is to create gargoylesn that transfom into stone during the day, or werewolves that transforms during the nights of the Day of the moon. One important thing to keep in ming is that, is you use event_time to make the change, the originial object **and** the replacement object should create the time event. This is because the scriptnot only replace the orignial object by the one configured but also displace the event responsible for the script from the original object to the replacement.

+ ==== Matching any period of a list ====
+ Script name: **/python/tod/replace_one_period.py**
+ 
+ This script will make the replacement upon matching any period of time given in argument list. Typical use:
+ 
+   arch event_time
+   title Python
+   slaying /python/tod/replace_one_period.py
+   name Morning,Noon
+   arch beholder
+   end
+   end
+ 
+ This script will, between Morning and Noon, replace it's containing object by the beholder that is inside the script.
+ 
+ ==== Matching all periods of a list ====
+ Script name: **/python/tod/replace_all_periods.py**
+ 
+ This script, when matching all period of time given as argument, will do the swap. Typical use:
+ 
+   arch event_time
+   title Python
+   slaying /python/tod/replace_one_period.py
+   name Night,the Day of the Moon
+   arch beholder
+   end
+   end
+ 
+ This example will, during the Night of the Day of the Moon, replace it's container by a beholder. The container will be restored when leaving the period.
