The GREAT retrovirus and his PROBLEMS
 
Heya :) More help required :P Here's the list.
Ok basically.
You feel less protected.
cast 'iron skin' @current_character
[I want a counter to start, now and count until i see the down message {you feel less protected again.}]
After the counter has got a time, i want to make an alarm,
#if @iron_spell_down is in 3 seconds, i want it to cast iron now instead of after tick, so i get the spell as soon as it falls.

Also i need it for several other spells, so if you can give me the basic's here, i can do the rest.. Thx

In most MUDs a tick is a random amount of seconds between some pre-defined range. For example, in my MUD, a tick is a random amount fo tiem between 30 seconds and 45 seconds. There are other MUDs in which a tick is a defined amount of time that never changes. These, however, are the exception since most MUDs try to stop people from doing exactly what you want to do.

If your MUD is one of the former, then it is not possible to do what you want. If it is one of the latter, then it is easier to multiply the duration in ticks of the spell (if you are able to see this information) by the duration of one tick.
