Im using this..

-	script	News	-1,{
OnInit:
set .Time,60;		// Announce every x Minute.

setarray .News$[0],	// Random Message to be Announced
		"Updated News 1 every X Minute",
		"Updated News 2 every X Minute",
		"Updated News 3 every X Minute",
		"Updated News 4 every X Minute",
		"Updated News 5 every X Minute",
		"Updated News 6 every X Minute",
		"Updated News 7 every X Minute";
		
while( 1 ){
	announce .News$[ rand( getarraysize( .News$ ) ) ],0;
	sleep ( .Time * 60000 );
	}
end;
}

I want it to announce every 10 minutes. so i change

 

set .Time,60;        // Announce every x Minute.

into

set .Time,10;        // Announce every x Minute.

 

and this

sleep ( .Time * 60000 );

into

sleep ( .Time * 10000 );

 

 

But its announcing everay 1 minute.

whats the problem.

 

I tried adding 0 to sleep ( .Time * 10000 ); to make it sleep ( .Time * 100000 );

 

but its not announcing anymore.

Help anyone?

You were only supposed to edit one of the values.

So revert to the original and just change the 

 

set .Time,60;

 

line to 

 

set .Time,10;

[Vincentore]

sleep ( .Time * 10000 );

back to 

sleep ( .Time * 60000 );

and

set .Time,10;

 

 

60000ms = 1min

.Time = 10;

 

= 10 minutes
