The responses to this thread are interesting....Unfortunately I don't have much value to add in terms of a resource to point you towards to get this setup as I haven't done it myself.
Every competitive guild in P99 is actively tracking the spawn windows of all competitive mobs at all times. To imply this is illegal or bannable is simply misinformed at best.
The rules allow for external programs to be applied to the game when they simply involve reading/scraping/parsing log files and not modifying in game play.
The tool OP is describing would be no different than other tools like GINA and NParse that are prevalently used enmas accross P99 today. These tools are already capable of acknowledging a death of a mob via text log and automatically applying a timer for when the spawn will re-pop. People use this all the time.
I've also seen guilds have discord bots built out with each mob and its spawn window so all you have to do is input the time of death for the mob and the bot will track when the spawn window opens and closes for the next spawn. Each one I've seen works a bit differently so I assume they are hand built by members of those guilds and likely they aren't sharing but would be curious if you find something plug and play or build this out yourself. I've been wanting a similar tool as well.
