Please edit your original post instead of posting multiple times. Remember, no double posting within 72 hours.

Adding all that info in a spoiler might be a good idea, too.

Oh ok sorry about that. I'll keep that in mind.

I just thought that since this is a resource it was OK to post when I update (which I really thought I read somewhere was ok to do, must have been another forum I guess).

 

I just wanted to make sure people were aware of the update was all.

 

PS.

I really can't seem to find any rule that says I can't double post in this category.

I checked here: Completed Ace Scripts -Rules and Guidelines

& here: Global Forum Rules

 

However, I do know that is true for Script Support & Script Request. I read that here & here.

 

Maybe I overlooked it.

 

Edit:

Since I cannot post a post below this, I will use this post to say... updated again. Now at v2.2, check first post for version history.

 

Planned Features:

 

 

• Auto-pause in battle using a switch to control whether or not this will happen (v2.3)
• Run common events at certain time(s), not just when it expires. (v2.3)
• A variable that can be set for each button press counter. (v2.3)
• A variable that can be set for the combined number of button presses. (v2.3)
• Run common events at a certain number(s) of button presses, not just when it expires. (v2.4)
• Button Input modes (ex. Button Mash; just mash the buttons, Code Input; a specific sequence) (v2.?)
• Unlimited CT_Timers (v?.?)

Updated. Check first post, I made the demo specifically around this topic.

I've been looking for something like this! I need two timers ticking at once (the base timer, and this one) Thank you so much for this!

UPDATED to v3.0. Major update!

Now you can have an unlimited number of CT_Timers & set properties for each one.   This new version also has scheduled tasks.

Check first post for more details & download.

hey, your demo was very awesome! xD

but still, i can't get my project works just like you did with your demo.

after i copied the script, pictures, commont events, from your demo, everything still didn't work.

anyway, how to edit the "Module DataManager" section in your scripts, so your script could working in my project ?

any solution ?

 

sorry, i was just in hurry, so i'd hope my language doesn't trouble you xD

Is there any chance you could re-upload this script/demo? I know this is really old, and you might not still have the files. The links you posted seem to be dead, at least for me. I don't want to move my whole project over to MV to use Shaz's Multi Timers script, but it might be what I have to do.
