| | My problem is quite simple. I do some minor scripting with vb on triggers and such, but when I make a call to enable a timer (world.enabletimer "timername", true), it fires the timer immediatly. Is there any way to fix this? I have tried an offset, but that didn't work. | | Top |

| | You'll need to reset the timer too (ResetTimer "timername"). |

| | Can you paste your alias (and the timer) here (paste button to copy the whole thing, not the individual fields)? |

| | Try resetting the timer just after you enable it, doesn't seem to work the other way around. |

| Resetting timers is skipped for disabled ones. Thus you must enable it first. Also I have been notified of a problem with timers which fire "at" a time being wrong by hours.
This turns out to be a problem introduced with the sub-second interval timers a few versions back. Timers are currently firing "at" a time which is UTC time, not local time. This will be fixed in version 3.67. |
