Time before disable

[Ranokoa]

I need to set a timer so that after a kill function the person killed by the script is disabled AFTER 5 seconds. Can someone write that quickly? I do not know how, and if you wrote it, it would teach me.

 

if somecommand
  target.kill
  target.disable
endif
end

The best way to do this is to assign a script to the character who dies and this in an onDeath block.

 

float timer

Begin onDeath

if( timer < 5 )
 Set timer to timer + getSecondsPassed
else
 target.disable
endif

End

 

This way no matter how you kill them their

corpse will become disabled after 5 seconds.

 

You have to have it '< 5' because it starts counting at 0,

so <= 5 would wait 6 seconds, not five.

Thanks, exactly what I need. It's going to be used for my Ban Hammer mod :D

The timer doesn't seam to want to work. Not granted I've hand written like 4 scripts in my time without manipulating so I might be doing something awfully wrong, but how do I get the timer to work?
