Lua Add exhaustion onto command

[Joriku]

Hi,
I know this might not the the best thing to ask for but for you who's reading this. It might be as easy as writing the code as it is for me writing the therd.
I'm trying to add an exhaustion onto an !aol command, the script looks like this.
What I've seen,
if exhaustion.get(cid, 101)
But cannot manage to get it to work, any Ideas and any "solved solutions" can can be explained so I can manage to put it up myself?

local price_aol = 0

function onSay(player, words, param)
    if player:removeMoney(price_aol) then
        player:getPosition():sendMagicEffect(CONST_ME_MAGIC_RED)
        player:addItem(2173, 1)
    else
        if player:withdrawMoney(price_aol) then
            if player:removeMoney(price_aol) then
                player:getPosition():sendMagicEffect(CONST_ME_MAGIC_RED)
                player:addItem(2173, 1)
            end
        else
            player:getPosition():sendMagicEffect(CONST_ME_POFF)
            player:sendCancelMessage("You don't have enought money. Not even in your bank!")
        end
    end

    return true
end

You could do it via lua tables I guess.

editing to add greentext

local player_exhaust = {} -- table that will hold creatureid's and time. (might need to remove local from this line.. not sure.)
local exhaust_time = 5 -- seconds

local price_aol = 0

function onSay(player, words, param)

    local time, cid = os.time(), player:getId()

    if player_exhaust[cid] then -- check if anything has been added to table
        if time < player_exhaust[cid] then -- check time against what's in table.
            player:sendCancelMessage("You are exhausted.")
            return true
        end
    end
    player_exhaust[cid] = time + exhaust_time -- add / update information in table with new exhaust time
 
    if player:removeMoney(price_aol) then
        player:getPosition():sendMagicEffect(CONST_ME_MAGIC_RED)
        player:addItem(2173, 1)
    else
        if player:withdrawMoney(price_aol) then
            if player:removeMoney(price_aol) then
                player:getPosition():sendMagicEffect(CONST_ME_MAGIC_RED)
                player:addItem(2173, 1)
            end
        else
            player:getPosition():sendMagicEffect(CONST_ME_POFF)
            player:sendCancelMessage("You don't have enought money. Not even in your bank!")
        end
    end

    return true
end

        end
    end

    return true
end

This worked pretty well, didn't stop the command but it doesn't allow the item spam which was the whole issue.
Thanks alot, and that descs are just pure gold! It'll surley help me alot in future, thanks alot agin Xikini <3
