| I haven't been able to find anything on this, maybe I'm not looking hard enough.
I'm wanting to track the time between a trigger activating and turning off and the only way I know how to do it is to use variables to track the lines in between it activating and disabling but I don't think that would be very accurate.
So I was wondering if there is a script function maybe that will accurately keep track of time.

| Damn, that's exactly what I want but the way I'm doing this I can't use it.
Hmm... I'll play around with it a little maybe I can change something.
Thanks! | | Top |

| Trying to make a dps tracker of sorts.
When I initially made this post I was doing it completely differently, because of a problem I encountered (it was tracking MOB damage) the only way I could solve it was to make 7+ triggers to activate (basically every time I did damage) the the one I wanted to time (the one that recorded damage) then I had to make it so that trigger deactivated immediately after it recorded damage.
Because of that I don't know how I can track time anymore but that might just be because of my inexperience. | | Top |

| | The time you get can be stored in a global (Lua) variable. This can be consulted later on by a different trigger. Then by subtracting one from the other you know how much time elapsed. |
