need help with tick timer
 
I have many tick timer triggers, what I need to know is if there is a command that sets the timeout margin from a trigger. I am tired of having to open the tick timer to set the timeout margin everytime I change the action. I have my tick timer action set to @action. what I want to do is when I am not fighting, I want the timeout margin set to 5 and tick timer set to 5 so that every 5 seconds it attempts to do @action which I have set to kill @target. Then when I engage a target I have it set to where @action becomes weapon_check and I want to set it where the margin sets itself to 30 with a tick of 30. I know #ts sets the tick timer but I am curious what sets the timeout margin by way of a trigger.


this is the trigger that goes off when I kill something
#trigger {you recieve your portion of exp} {@action = kill @target;#ts 5;save;exp}

this is the trigger when I first attack something
#trigger {< T: @char TP:} {@action = weapon_check;#ts 30}

but it does not set the timeout margin and so renders it useless. I want the first trigger to set the timeout margin to 5 and #ts 5 as well and I want the second trigger to set the timeout margin to 30 and #ts 30.

P.S. thank you in advance for any help that any of you maybe able to offer me.
