basic idea is I have an event that goes on for 10 minutes every 50 minutes (1hr complete loop), and everything but the extra income is set up. Ive been resorting to lazy scripting (also because I dont know much) so ive been wondering if I should just script a wait function to the ways to make money (at the moment I have 7 ways to make money) or find out how to script an extra 10% income event-thing. lmk!

I think your problem is more architectural
Anyway Good night too tired to continue

yeah, Im just trying to find out how id go about doing that

create a boolean (or a table if your doing multiple events) and if the event is active then increase by x amount

i think the problem is how are you going to make it happen every 60 mins
to apply a boost that lasts 10 mins
to each plr.
and i heavely doubt a simple ass while loop would do the job
because it also needs to apply to the server specifically
so that the timer doesn't reset everytime a plr joins
its pretty hard
really
you definirely need to ask a grade 2 scripter in this server

its pretty hard
the only hard part is syncing across all servers
but tbh, even that is easy. its only hard if you want to do arbitrary time
like random interval

wouldn't it be better to make it based on server lifetime?

os.time()%(60*60) < 10*60 such s2, many skill require

no coz then each server is at random point in the cycle, meaning you could join a server for the 10 minute boost, then join another server for an immediate extra 10 minutes in the best case. worst case is you rejoin every 50 minutes and never get the boost
kind rock
oh so it'd just be rng

`os.time()%(60*60) < 10*60` such s2, many skill require
this guarantees all servers on the same cycle without any communication between them since clock is synced
pliant charm
like random interval
this would require some communication most likely
easy to do random interval with communication, without comms is an interesting problem
depends on the thing you're trying to sync
can probably get away with the clock trick for rng seed if you do it right
pliant charm
same thing can be used for like day/night cycle, so if its night on one server, it's night on all servers at the same time guaranteed

what does that line do exactly?

what even are scripter grades
