Delay timer

Jul 11, 2003 HumpyThePenguin link
Dev's can we get a delay timer command? By itself it wouldnt do anything, but coupled with something else it would be powerful!

Ive tried to make one using echo but it only causes lag :/

/me reeeaaallyy would like a delay timer for his staggerfire script
and possibliy a way to group weapons in-flight

/me wonders if the /none command takes time...
/me goes to check

Genka, all commands take time, just a very very small amount of it.

What we need are a way to script something, but not scripts powerful enough to do the persons job, just powerful enought to let the person go grab a coke, or talk to someone on the phone. (or eat that steaming hot chicken pot pie!)

mmm....I just want a freking delay timer
like /set delay 12
that would make the timer internally count for 12 seconds
but not displaying the counting

Might help with triggers and such (wink wink, nudge nudge)

or /scriptdelay 25
would place an alias execution delay of 25 miliseconds? so you can have precise, small, or large delays.

I strongly agree. (In fact I requested this feature myself a few days ago.)
