Outputing time left on tick-timer
 
I am wondering if there is a way of outputing how much time is left on the tick-timer. Basically I have a timer set up that tells people in the mud when the tick is but I want to create a trigger so when they say "when" it will say "X seconds untill tick". I tried using #t? but that only seems to output to my screen, I want something I can output to everyone else.

Any ideas?

Thanks

use the %tick predefined variable. It's exactly what you want.

Yep. See this page or check the index in the zMUD help for 'predefined'.
