Please help me

[terse radish]

I wanna run a code that is being ran for a limited time and I don’t know what to write someone help it’s really important for me

[flint panther]

Explain further?

[terse radish]

For example when you ban someone for 30 Days or you give someone white list for a limited time etc

[flint panther]

Oh ok

Just get the local time, convert it to the limited time and fire your event

[terse radish]

Wdym local time

[coral gyro]

Time when you banned the player

[median sluice]

Use tick() to get the current time in ticks (basically seconds) and convert 30 days (or any amount you want) in seconds then add the number you got to the current tick and save it in player data and to see if 30 days has past, just compare the new current tick to the old tick you have saved

[blissful crag]

if you dont know what tick() is, its basically the time since 1st of january of 1970, so all you gotta do is to add the number to the current tick time+

you can also use tick to measure the time a script took to run

for example

local TIME = tick()

wait(3)

print(tick()-TIME)```

it would print 3 in this case

its important for you to understand what you are doing instead of just taking the code from help 🤷‍♂️ if you want further information on tick() just read about it on the roblox documentation page

it is better to use os.time() to, tick() isnt really deprecated but i heard that os.time() does the same thing but better

** You are now Level 2! **

[blissful crag]

doesnt really make a diffrence tho

[coral gyro]

That is “local”

Pretty sure

[median sluice]

What?

You mean local script or a variable?

[coral gyro]

tick() depends on the local timezone of each machine. That's why there is a big difference

Google:

[median sluice]

Ahh... then it should use os.time

[coral gyro]

Your system would need a universal time zone to accurately get a time ban

[median sluice]

You were right

[coral gyro]

Yes
