| Can someone possibly post an example showing how to get a timer to directly call a function in a lua script?
I'm clearly doing something wrong. I'd like to not have to resort to sending an alias to get the function to be called.
Thanks in advance. :) | Top |

| I have a video about scripting.
You have two basic choices:
Use “send to script” in the timer and put your script code in the “send” box. This can directly do things, or call functions.
Leave the “send” box blank and put the name of a function in the “Script” box of the timer. Then that function needs to be implemented in a script file which is associated with that world file in the World Configuration -> Scripting -> Scripts configuration dialog.
