A timer is a command. Code: These are reasons to use curly brackets. on *:EVENT:{ command } alias test { command } if ($1 = blah) { command } As you can see below, commands are one line and can be nested within brackets. Code: /command param1 param2 param3 $command(param1,param2,param3) /timername <N> <N> /command param1 param2 param3 /timername <N> <N> $command(param1,param2,param3)
