Hi
I'm a bit of a noob with all of this, I was trying to make a simple script to change a chan topic every 24 hrs that counted down to a date
this is what I was trying
on *:text:!test*:*:{
.msg $iif($chan,$v1,$nick) 9Only 7 $duration($calc($ctime(06/08/2007 9:00:00) - $ctime)) 9 left
}
on *:text:!startcountdown*:*:{
/timer 00:01 0 86400 topic #testies 9Only 7 $duration($calc($ctime(06/08/2007) - $ctime)) 9 left
.msg #testies countdown topic thingie started
}
the idea being that every 86400 secs - 24 hrs, it would write the topic with the weeks/days left - the 1st bit works fine, and allows people to check the time left whenever.
The problem I have is that the $duration calc is only done when the timer is started.. so it never changes, but as I'm not very experienced in all this I don't what to do to fix that so that it recalculates each time it changes the topic..
Prolly far to easy a question to bother u all with
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
