May I ask how to attach a player who talks to the NPC to be able to receive the message only?

 

I am trying to create an NPC that I can start the time when I talk to it, 

When I logout, the timer pause if ever i had started it,

The timer will resume if I login and if I started it before logging out.

 

  

prontera,154,181,3	script	testnpc::npctimerX0000	876,{
	mes "Timer value" + getnpctimer(0);
	mes "State timer" + getnpctimer(1,"npctimerX0000");
	mes "Number of events" + getnpctimer(2);
	switch(select("Initialization:Stop:Start:Settings")) {
	case 1:
		//initnpctimer;
		close;
	case 2:
		stopnpctimer;
		close;
	case 3:
		startnpctimer;
		close;
	case 4:
		input .@temp;
		setnpctimer .@temp;
		close;
	}

OnTimer1000:
	dispbottom "After a second...";
	end;

OnTimer5000:
	dispbottom "After 5 seconds...";
	end;

OnTimer10000:
	dispbottom "Times up! ";
	stopnpctimer;
	setnpctimer 0;
	end;

OnPCLogoutEvent:
//ops attached player logout. pausing timer.
stopnpctimer;
end;

OnPCLoginEvent:
if ( getnpctimer(0) == 0 ){
 dispbottom "no start countdown since it didn't start yet";
	end;
}else{
//resume timer
startnpctimer;
}
end;


}

thanks!, However when I logout. the timer gets going. It should stop and will continue once I login again. 

prontera,154,181,3	script	testnpc::npctimerX0000	876,{
	mes "Timer value" + getnpctimer(0);
	mes "State timer" + getnpctimer(1,"npctimerX0000");
	mes "Number of events" + getnpctimer(2);
	switch(select("Initialization:Stop:Start:Settings")) {
	case 1:
		//initnpctimer;
		close;
	case 2:
		stopnpctimer;
		close;
	case 3:
		attachnpctimer strcharinfo(0);
		startnpctimer;
		end;
	case 4:
		input .@temp;
		setnpctimer .@temp;
		close;
	}

OnTimer1000:
	dispbottom "After a second...";
	message strcharinfo(0),"You have "+((getnpctimer(0))/1000)+" Seconds.";
	end;

OnTimer5000:
	dispbottom "After 5 seconds...";
	end;

OnTimer10000:
	dispbottom "Times up! warping you to your home town";
	stopnpctimer;
	end;

OnPCLogoutEvent:
if ( getnpctimer(0) == 0 ){
	dispbottom " Why stop timer if it did not start yet";
	end; 
} else {
stopnpctimer;
end;

}

OnPCLoginEvent:
if ( getnpctimer(0) == 0 ){
 dispbottom "no start countdown since it didn't start yet";
	end;
} else {
startnpctimer;
end;
}



}

You need to include attachnpctimer before initnpctimer to apply it only on players who talk to your npc.

Try the end;s after the condition.. 

prontera,154,181,3	script	testnpc::npctimerX0000	876,{
	mes "Timer value" + getnpctimer(0);
	mes "State timer" + getnpctimer(1,"npctimerX0000");
	mes "Number of events" + getnpctimer(2);
	switch(select("Initialization:Stop:Start:Settings")) {
	case 1:
		//initnpctimer;
		close;
	case 2:
		stopnpctimer;
		close;
	case 3:
		attachnpctimer strcharinfo(0);
		startnpctimer;
		end;
	case 4:
		input .@temp;
		setnpctimer .@temp;
		close;
	}

OnTimer1000:
	dispbottom "After a second...";
	message strcharinfo(0),"You have "+((getnpctimer(0))/1000)+" Seconds.";
	end;

OnTimer5000:
	dispbottom "After 5 seconds...";
	end;

OnTimer10000:
	dispbottom "Times up! warping you to your home town";
	stopnpctimer;
	end;

	OnPCLogoutEvent:
if ( getnpctimer(0) == 0 ){
	dispbottom " Why stop timer if it did not start yet";

Tried the end; from the conditions. It didn't work. hmm. What else can we do.

  

prontera,154,181,3	script	testnpc::npctimerX0000	876,{
	mes "Timer value" + getnpctimer(0);
	mes "State timer" + getnpctimer(1,"npctimerX0000");
	mes "Number of events" + getnpctimer(2);
	switch(select("Initialization:Stop:Start:Settings")) {
	case 1:
		//initnpctimer;
		end;
	case 2:
		stopnpctimer;
		end;
	case 3:
		attachnpctimer strcharinfo(0);
		startnpctimer;
		end;
	case 4:
		input .@temp;
		setnpctimer .@temp;
		end;
	}

OnTimer1000:
	dispbottom "After a second...";
	message strcharinfo(0),"You have "+((getnpctimer(0))/1000)+" Seconds.";
	end;

OnTimer5000:
	dispbottom "After 5 seconds...";
	end;

OnTimer10000:
	dispbottom "Times up! warping you to your home town";
	stopnpctimer;
	end;

OnPCLogoutEvent:
if ( getnpctimer(0) == 0 ){
	dispbottom " Why stop timer if it did not start yet";
	end; 
} else {
stopnpctimer;
end;

}

OnPCLoginEvent:
if ( getnpctimer(0) == 0 ){
 dispbottom "no start countdown since it didn't start yet";
	end;
} else {
startnpctimer;
end;
}

By default timers do not have a RID attached, which lets them continue even
if the player that started them logs off. To attach a RID to a timer, you can
either use the optional "attach flag" when using 'initnpctimer/startnpctimer',
or do it manually by using 'attachnpctimer'. Likewise, the optional flag of
stopnpctimer lets you detach any RID after stopping the timer, and by using
'detachnpctimer' you can detach a RID at any time.

You will need to save the npctimer into a variable when logginout...

I think your request will not work as getnpctimer(0) and setnpctimer only works as NPC timer. Sure you can attach the timer on multiple players but you cannot get the current tick attached to each players.

You can use the gettimetick/addtimer/deltimer for this perhaps? You can try below 

prontera,150,150,6	script	Timer	876,{
	function Time_Left;
	
	mes "Hi Pogi";
	switch(select("Initialization:Stop:Start:Settings")) {
		case 1:
			a = gettimetick(2); // start time
			addtimer (Time_Left() * 1000), strnpcinfo(0) + "::OnTimeUp";
			break;
		case 2:
			b = gettimetick(2); // stop time
			deltimer strnpcinfo(0) + "::OnTimeUp";
			break;
		case 3:
			.@diff = gettimetick(2) - (b - a);
			a = b;
			b = gettimetick(2);
			addtimer Time_Left(.@diff, b) * 1000, strnpcinfo(0) + "::OnTimeUp";
			break;
		case 4:
		default: break;
	}
	close;
		
	OnTimeUp:
		dispbottom "Done!";
		a = 0;
		b = 0;
		end;
		
	OnPCLogoutEvent:
		if (!a) end;
		b = gettimetick(2);
		end;
		
	OnPCLoginEvent:
		if (!a) end;
		.@diff = gettimetick(2) - (b - a);
		a = b;
		b = gettimetick(2);
		addtimer Time_Left(.@diff, b) * 1000, strnpcinfo(0) + "::OnTimeUp";
		end;
		
	function Time_Left {
		.@start = getarg(0, 0);
		.@end = getarg(1, gettimetick(2));
		return !.@start ? .time_in_seconds : (.time_in_seconds - (.@end - .@start));
	}
	
	OnInit:
		.time_limit = 3; // 3 minutes
		.time_in_seconds = .time_limit * 60;
		//uncomment below if you want timers to reset upon server restart / npc reload
		//addrid(0);
		//a = 0;
		//b = 0;
		end;
}

PS : I'm not good at timers also ?

		bindatcmd "timer", strnpcinfo(0) + "::OnCmd";
		//uncomment below if you want timers to reset upon server restart / npc reload
		/*addrid(0);
		a = 0;
		b = 0;
		c = 0;
		deltimer strnpcinfo(0) + "::OnTimeUp";*/
		end;
}

Tho i haven't tested them fully like combination (stop -> logout -> login -> start). Up to you how to debug

Use @timer
