One thing I have noticed is there is not an 'on time' trigger, there are only event based triggers. How would go about having a snippet of code be ran in my script every XX seconds? Is there an easy way?

Would I just have the first line of the script as: Code: /timerTenMinutes 0 600 { rest of code here } I want to make it do multiple lines of code. Last edited by razezar; 03/05/13 03:59 AM.
