Well, i have this timer in a small away system, which is set like this
.timeraway -cm 0 2700000 _away
to echo every 45 minutes, but this is what happens..
i'm still dead!! (sleep.) [45/m 1/s]
i'm still dead!! (sleep.) [1/h 30/m 1/s]
i'm still dead!! (sleep.) [2/h 15/m 1/s]
i'm still dead!! (sleep.) [3/h 2/s]
i'm still dead!! (sleep.) [3/h 45/m 1/s]
i'm still dead!! (sleep.) [4/h 30/m 1/s]
i'm still dead!! (sleep.) [5/h 14/m 37/s]
why does it fluctuate so much?
i don't see why it shoudn't just go..
i'm still dead!! (sleep.) [45/m]
i'm still dead!! (sleep.) [1/h 30/m]
i'm still dead!! (sleep.) [2/h 15/m]
i'm still dead!! (sleep.) [3/h]
and so on..
any views to this?

Differing loads for mIRC and/or your OS at the time mostly I guess. Hi-res timers are more accurate (to the speed of the system clock) but use a lot more resources than normal timers.

Would there be a way to round it up to the nearest minute when this happens?

Easiest way would be to use $duration( ,2) which loses the seconds. :[/b])
*rounds down lol

I needed to do something similar a while back, rounding to the nearest minute I mean, this is what I made to do it and return the seconds rounded to nearest minute, if someone has a better way, please share  ~ Edit ~ Removed my lame code, ty Iori you script god (goddess?) To return formatted if N (N is optional)$dur(seconds,N)
alias dur {
if ($calc($1 % 60) < 30) var %a = - $+ $v1
else var %a = 60 - $v1
var %r = $calc($1 + %a)
return $iif($2 isnum 1-3,$duration(%r,$2),%r)
}

How about
alias dur {
if $calc($1 % 60) < 30 { var %a = - $+ $v1 }
else var %a = 60 - $v1
return $duration($calc($1 + %a))
}

This is great, but if i'm away say for example a week or more
will it still only effect the minutes?
will it still show like that?
away i'm still dead!! (test) [1/w 3/d 18/h 45/m]
to be more secific, does it only effect the minutes? none of the hours/days/weeks etc.

It will work for as long an amount of time as $duration() &/or $calc() works for. As it is it won't show like "[1/w 3/d 18/h 45/m]" because thats not a return from $duration(). The output would be like "204wks 21hrs 33mins" You could replace the output of it though. - $+([,$replace($remove($dur(<seconds>),s),wk,/w,hr,/h,day,/d,min,/m),])
[207/w 3/d 1/h 6/m]

Using your alias i did it like this alias dur {
if $calc($1 % 60) < 30 { var %a = - $+ $v1 }
else var %a = 60 - $v1
return $chr(91) $+ $replace($remove($duration($calc($1 + %a)),ecs,ins,rs,ays,ks,ec,in,r,ay,k),w,/w,d,/d,h,/h,m,/m,s,/s)) $+ $chr(93)
}

Hmm OK  return $+([,$replace($remove($duration($calc($1 + %a)),s),wk,/w,hr,/h,day,/d,min,/m),]) return $chr(91) $+ $replace($remove($duration($calc($1 + %a)),ecs,ins,rs,ays,ks,ec,in,r,ay,k),w,/w,d,/d,h,/h,m,/m,s,/s)) $+ $chr(93) I know which I would choose..

yeah definitely, QWERTY does own too, but (big but) you can tell when certain people get attached to the people that help them out, your nick appeared in the search results about 500 times :tongue:
