Hello, what is the correct usage of Correct Use of Gettimetick(2)?

does it start counting whenever you talk to the NPC? or what?

*gettimetick(<tick type>)

This function will return a tick depending on <tick type>:
 0: The server's tick, a measurement in milliseconds used by the server's timer
    system. This tick is an unsigned int which loops every ~50 days.
 1: The time, in seconds, since the start of the current day.
 2: The system time in UNIX epoch time, or the number of seconds elapsed since
    January 1st, 1970. Useful for reliably measuring time intervals.

it return your server time tick, not your npc time

It takes a number from 0 to 2 and depending on which number you give it, it returns one of the described values.
