GetSecondsPassed

Syntax:

GetSecondsPassed 

Returns the number of seconds passed since the last game frame (in float). Extremely useful for running a timer within a script. Much like getbuttonpressed, it only returns a value the first time it is called within a frame, and all subsequent calls return 0.

Example:

float timer

begin gamemode

if timer > 0
   set timer to timer - GetSecondsPassed
else
   ; time's up! Do something.
endif

end

Example Two:

 float timer1
 float timer2
 
 begin gamemode
 set timer1 to getsecondspassed  ;This returns the time passed since the last frame
 set timer2 to getsecondspassed  ;This returns zero

 end
