Hello.
I'm having a problem with a function on mIRC. My problem is that when I start a timer and have it on an infinite loop, if I use any type of comand that returns a date ($time, $fulldate) it gives the same date over and over.
To be brief, what I'm trying to do is use a message on a timer that messages myself, included with the time in the message, it repeats every 20 seconds. Here is the command.
/timer1 0 20 /msg $me Still here. Time is $fulldate
I've tried $asctime and $date in place of $fulldate, but I get the same problem.
It always returns the time when I activated the timer. Don't know what the problem is, so if anyone can help me, it'd be much appreciated.
From what else I've gathered, when I use this in the perform buffer, it gives the error, but if I manually type it out, then it works fine and keeps the time up to date. The only problem is that I don't like to manually do stuff, I like to either have it automatically execute from a script, or do its thing whenever it starts.
Thanks.
