Attach timer to player

[simplynice]

I'd like to attach a timer to a player.

 

Example:

 

I will talk to NPC and after talking to NPC . the NPC will block the player to talk into that NPC for  1 week.

 

It's an account based attachment of time.

 

The purpose of the 1 week time is it cannot talk to the NPC even if he goes offline and online again.

 

I just need an idea easy enough to understand.

if(#ticker<gettimetick(2)) {

mes "I think you're really awesome.";

next;

mes "Now you have to wait a week before you can hear that again.";

set #ticker, gettimetick(2)+60*60*24*7;

} else {

mes "Come back next week for your complement.";

}

close;

}

Hello sorry for interupting,

Hi Skorm! can you elaborate whats:

"set #ticker, gettimetick(2)+60*60*24*7;"

Because I wanted to make a own script using yours, thanks, and also can it be set a timer on account?

Not a problem.

set #ticker, gettimetick(2)+60*60*24*7;

#ticker -> Is a permanent account based variable.

gettimetick(2) -> UNIX epoch time (number of seconds elapsed since 1st of January 1970)

+ -> Plus

60 -> 60 Seconds

* -> Times

60 -> 60 Minutes

24 -> 24 Hours

7 -> 7 Days

 

All adds up to the amount of seconds in one week. Which I then added to Unix time. If the current time in seconds is greater than #ticker then the amount of time needed has passed.

It's a very simple type of timer. I guarantee anywhere you go you'll be able to find it. Hope I was able to explain it well enough.
