Timer
|
Last time and posted a mess I was unclear on my problem. This time I have the mess will explain what I want the timer to do.
I have a protectionspell that I want to keep track of the duration of the spell. Like:
You glow with a red glow (on mess) Now I want a timer that counts the second that the spell is active.
The glow fades away(off mess) Stop the timer and put the value in a variable.
In zmud 6.16 this worked:
You mumble the lost mantra of 'Dent Frote' and tune yourself in spiritually.
#math dentt %time( hhmm)*60-%time( hh)*2400+%time( ss)-1
#var denttime 1
#var dent ON
ppas >> Shit: [ON] <<
You feel more tuned to this world.
#math current %time( hhmm)*60-%time( hh)*2400+%time( ss)
#math denttime @current-@dentt
#math dentlast @denttime
ppas >> Shit: [OFF] Lasted [@denttime] seconds <<
#var denttime OFF
the timetrigger look like this:
*(trigger)
#math current %time( hhmm)*60-%time( hh)*2400+%time( ss)
#if (@wctime <> "OFF") {#math wctime @current-@wc}
#if (@denttime <> "OFF") {#math denttime @current-@dentt}
#if (@iwtime <> "OFF") {#math iwtime @current-@iw}
#if (@paintime <> "OFF") {#math paintime @current-@pain}
#if (@phystime <> "OFF") {#math phystime @current-@phys}
I hope some1 understands this. |

Since your just looking to record the start of the spell, and display the duration you can use a very simple trigger and variable.
#VAR ProtStart {0} {0}
#TR {You glow with a red glow} {ProtStart=%ctime}
#TR {The glow fades away} {ProtDur=%eval((%ctime-@ProtStart));ProtStart=0}
The variable is set to have a default of 0. It would be reset to this value when you connect. If start is non-zero then the spell is active. So a displaying test would be something like
#IF (@ProtStart) {#ECHO Protection lasts another %eval(@ProtDur-%ctime+@ProtStart) seconds.} |

The #MATH command in the current version doesn't evaluate the %time function. You have to use %eval.
#math dentt %eval( %time( hhmm)*60-%time( hh)*2400+%time( ss)-1)
Using %ctime, as Vijilante suggests, is probably better.
