Well I'm wondering how to make a timer for my mod for example...

if timer = 5
do this
else if timer = 10
do something else

I'm stumped at the moment but if anyone can help me that'd be awesome thanks Smile

Code:
Init()
{
level thread Timer("timer1", 25);
level thread Effect();
}

Timer(name, time)
{
	for(level.timer[name]=time;level.timer[name]>0;level.timer[name]--)
	{
		wait 1;
	}
}

Effect()
{
	if(level.timer[timer1] > 15)
	{
		//dostuff
	}
}

Thank you so so so much!

My bad

Code:
Init()
{
level thread Timer("timer1", 25);
level thread Effect();
}

Timer(name, time)
{
    for(level.timer[name]=time;level.timer[name]>0;level.timer[name]--)
    {
        wait 1;
    }
}

Effect()
{
    if(level.timer["timer1"] > 15)
    {
        //dostuff
    }
}

@AZUMIKKEL That isn't going to work, it's just going to exit the Effect function/sub straight away....

**AZUMIKKEL** · 12-05-2012, 13:09

Of course it is, the effect thread is an example...

Shadowfita · 12-05-2012, 13:34

Yes but to make it keep checking can't i just put wait 1; in the effect as well?

**AZUMIKKEL** · (This post was last modified: 12-05-2012, 13:49 by AZUMIKKEL.)

Code:
Effect()
{
for(;;)
{
    if(level.timer["timer1"] > 15)
    {
        //dostuff
    }
wait 0.5;
}
}

Every coding language 101..

I was just making sure...

**AZUMIKKEL** · 12-05-2012, 14:21
