Title: Reset a TIMER
Post by: PERXEO on Wed 24/05/2023 15:08:01

I see that in AGS there are only two functions (as far as I know), which have to do with TIMER. One is

SetTimer(int timer_id, int timeout) and the other is

bool IsTimerExpired(int timer_id).
However, I would like to know how to override a SetTimer once it has started, ie something like StopTimer or ResetTimer. In any case, how do you cancel a timer so that it starts again from zero?

Hey there, to override the timer, you set it again. if you want to stop the timer just

Code Select

SetTimer(timerNumber, 0;

QuotePass TIMEOUT as 0 to disable a currently running timer.
