How to change a number value to a time value for cooldown 😭 | skUnity | Page 1

zealous grail Jun 21, 2024, 2:31 AM

#

An example skript where the command should go on cooldown based on how far player is from spawn.

command /example:
    cooldown: 0 seconds
    cooldown storage: {cooldown::%player's uuid%::example}
    trigger:
        set {x} to distance between player's location and {spawn}
        set {t} to {x} seconds # Convert number to a time??, how do i do this, or is it not possible
        set {cooldown::%player's uuid%::example} to {t}
        broadcast "Example command executed by %player%"

u can parse it as a timespan

zealous grail Jun 21, 2024, 3:34 AM

#

do you mean like
set {t} to {x} parsed as timespan

boreal hound Jun 21, 2024, 3:35 AM

#

Yah

#

wait

boreal hound Jun 21, 2024, 3:35 AM

#

zealous grail do you mean like set {t} to {x} parsed as timespan

”%{x}% seconds” parsed as timespan

zealous grail Jun 21, 2024, 3:42 AM

#

i'm trying that but i get this in console
Variable {cooldown::my uuid::example} was not a date! You may be using this variable elsewhere. This warning is letting you know that this variable is now overridden for the command storage.

why do u have cooldown if its just 0 second wtf

zealous grail Jun 21, 2024, 3:53 AM

#

its an example

boreal hound Jun 21, 2024, 3:54 AM

#

Yah but a 0 second cooldown might break it

zealous grail Jun 21, 2024, 3:55 AM

#

it aint the problem

boreal hound Jun 21, 2024, 3:55 AM

#

add
broadcast class info of {that cooldown var}
To the bottom

zealous grail Jun 21, 2024, 3:57 AM

#

can you show how

boreal hound Jun 21, 2024, 3:58 AM

#

THATS A LINE OF CODE FRRR

#

facepalm

zealous grail Jun 21, 2024, 3:58 AM

#

bro no its not

boreal hound Jun 21, 2024, 3:58 AM

#

Yes it is

zealous grail Jun 21, 2024, 3:58 AM

#

#

the proper syntax

boreal hound Jun 21, 2024, 3:59 AM

#

just change the var in it

zealous grail Jun 21, 2024, 3:59 AM

#

yeah thats not it

boreal hound Jun 21, 2024, 3:59 AM

#

well add it

#

class info is proper syntax

#

whos been in the server longer?

zealous grail Jun 21, 2024, 4:02 AM

#

Can't understand this condition/effect: broadcast class info of {cooldown::%player's uuid%::example}

boreal hound Jun 21, 2024, 4:02 AM

#

DO U NOT HAVE SKBEE

#

bruh

#

everyone has that here

#

except u

zealous grail Jun 21, 2024, 4:03 AM

#

buddy if you dont know the issue please just stop what

boreal hound Jun 21, 2024, 4:03 AM

#

fr

#

skbee is the nost essential addon

zealous grail Jun 21, 2024, 4:03 AM

#

why are you trying to start an arguement in the skript help section what

boreal hound Jun 21, 2024, 4:03 AM

#

ask shanebee

boreal hound Jun 21, 2024, 4:03 AM

#

zealous grail why are you trying to start an arguement in the skript help section what

….. idk

zealous grail Jun 21, 2024, 4:13 AM

#

the class is time span

opal sage Jun 21, 2024, 4:15 AM

#

{x} and {t} should be local

#

after parsing as a timespan, this should work

zealous grail Jun 21, 2024, 4:21 AM

#

like this?

command /example:
    cooldown: 0 seconds
    cooldown storage: {cooldown::%player's uuid%::example}
    trigger:
        set {_x} to 10
        set {_t} to "%{_x}% seconds" parsed as timespan
        set {cooldown::%player's uuid%::example} to {_t}
        broadcast "Example command executed by %player%"

#

i tried and still same issue

opal sage Jun 21, 2024, 4:24 AM

#

what's the issue?

zealous grail Jun 21, 2024, 4:25 AM

#

this is printing to console and the cooldown isnt being set
Variable {cooldown::my uuid::example} was not a date! You may be using this variable elsewhere. This warning is letting you know that this variable is now overridden for the command storage.

opal sage Jun 21, 2024, 4:25 AM

#

is that when you reload the script?

#

its cause it's still set to a number

#

run the command and see if that updates it to a timespan

zealous grail Jun 21, 2024, 4:26 AM

#

yeah thats with it reloaded

zealous grail Jun 21, 2024, 4:42 AM

#

i tried it in game with it like this. and it broadcasts nothing

command /example:
    cooldown: 2 seconds
    cooldown storage: {cooldown::%player's uuid%::example}
    trigger:
        broadcast class info of {cooldown::%player's uuid%::example}

#

then this and it broadcasts time span then 10 seconds

command /example:
    cooldown: 2 seconds
    cooldown storage: {cooldown::%player's uuid%::example}
    trigger:
        set {_x} to 10
        set {_t} to "%{_x}% seconds" parsed as timespan
        broadcast class info of {_t}
        broadcast {_t}

#

so its making t into a timespan correctly but for some reason still it cant be used to set the cooldown

opal sage Jun 21, 2024, 4:47 AM

#

aaaahh

#

okay i see

#

it wants a time__stamp__, not a time__span__

#

can you broadcast what skript sets the variable to? To see if it's set to the time when the command was used, or the time the command will be next useable

zealous grail Jun 21, 2024, 4:50 AM

#

this one? {cooldown::%player's uuid%::example}

opal sage Jun 21, 2024, 4:51 AM

#

mhmm

#

you can probably just !broadcast "future" if {} > now, else "past"

zealous grail Jun 21, 2024, 4:54 AM

#

so i did this and it broadcasts 10 seconds

command /example:
    cooldown: 2 seconds
    cooldown storage: {cooldown::%player's uuid%::example}
    trigger:
        set {_x} to 10
        set {_t} to "%{_x}% seconds" parsed as timespan
        set {cooldown::%player's uuid%::example} to {_t}
        broadcast "Example command executed by %player%"
        broadcast {cooldown::%player's uuid%::example}

#

and i tried this and it broadcasts nothing

command /example:
    cooldown: 2 seconds
    cooldown storage: {cooldown::%player's uuid%::example}
    trigger:
        broadcast {cooldown::%player's uuid%::example}

opal sage Jun 21, 2024, 4:59 AM

#

use it within 2 seconds so the cooldown is set

#

or just wait a tick then do it

opal sage Jun 21, 2024, 5:00 AM

#

opal sage you can probably just `!broadcast "future" if {} > now, else "past"`

and use this

zealous grail Jun 21, 2024, 5:00 AM

#

how do i use that idk what it means

opal sage Jun 21, 2024, 5:02 AM

#

its a ternary if statement

#

it will broadcast "future" if the variable is in the future

#

and otherwise, it will broadcast "past"

zealous grail Jun 21, 2024, 5:04 AM

#

i mean like how would you use it in the code. because skript doesnt understand it the thing you put literally

#

i dont understand what am i supposed to test

#

when i do
broadcast {cooldown::%player's uuid%::example}
before doing
set {cooldown::%player's uuid%::example} to {_t}
it gives nothing

#

then i make it broadcast after its set to {_t} and it says 10 seconds, but i can still use the command before 10 seconds has elapsed. so the cooldown isnt getting set properly

opal sage Jun 21, 2024, 5:09 AM

#

well, you have to fill in the actual variable instead of {}

zealous grail Jun 21, 2024, 5:13 AM

#

it only broadcasts "past"

#

o ok i have to do it like

set {cooldown::%player's uuid%::example} to {_t} from now
