Hi, I'm new to lua scripting, and scripts for OT.
My question is does 'OnThink', how to I use it?

Is an equivalent to PHP timers?
(I need to make a timer in lua)

Thank you very much for the answers

Yep, it executes onThink events on a regular interval which you set in the .xml file.
In newer revisions (post 0.3.6pl1) onTime is also available which allows a globalevent to execute, well on a certain time that's yet again, set in the .xml file.

The interval is in milliseconds.

Thansk for the information, Korrex.

Can i only use OnThink on GlobalEvents?.

For example:I want to show effects for 10 seconds to equip a sword.

It is posible with OnThink or OnTime? :S,

Thanks You very much :)

Click to expand...

onThink and onTime are only useable in globalevents.
For all others you can use addEvent.
