I'm confused as to how timming scripts work but i'd like to make a trigger that takes

Pilgrimage Azov 674

and counts down 674 seconds or whatever the number is which equals the total amount of seconds before the Pilgrimage runs out. To send perform rite of pilgrimage to the mud when the time runs out. What I have now is:

Trigger: Pilgrimage (%w*) (%d)
Command:
#TS %1

but it doesn't give the effect I want, any ideas?

You dont need to use the tick timer, because rites don't operate on a tick, they operate for n seconds after you perform it. Instead, use:
#ALARM +number of seconds {Commands to perform when the timer runs out}

So..
#TR {Pilgrimage %w (%d)} {#ALA +%1 {perform rite of pilgrimage}}

Should do the trick. Of course.. You might want to give it an ID and make a button/alias to toggle it on/off. I.e.

#TR "autopilg" {Pilgrimage %w (%d)} {#ALA +%1 {perform rite of pilgrimage}}
#AL apon {#T+ autopilg;#ECHO Auto pilgrimage on}
#AL apoff {#T- autopilg;#ECHO Auto pilg off}

Thanks much Caled, seems to be working just fine but one more question. How would I add 1 second after the alarm goes off before I perform rite of pilgrimage?

If i understand you correctly you want to essentially make the thing trigger 1 second later right? I think using %eval(%1 + 1) might work... havnt tested it myself though... should give ya some sorta starting spot if nothing else :)

#TR "autopilg" {Pilgrimage %w (%d)} {#ALA +%eval(%1 + 1) {perform rite of pilgrimage}}
Just as Valdar said.. I'm just making sure you know how to put the eval in the right spot.
