Lua [TFS 1.3] Pause a function

[Apollos]

Just working on a slot machine that slows down as it goes, seen someone do it before. Still got a lot to test through but mainly having a issue with a created function. How would I do this without freezing the server. Was thinking maybe addEvent to recursively call function again but I'm not sure if that's the right way either.

local function pause(extraTime)
    newTime = os.time() + extraTime
    while os.time() < newTime do
        --nothing
    end
end

just use addEvent to execute the code you want to, there's no need (or way) to pause a function without stopping the execution of everything else
