How to get timer current count? - GunZsmd - 14.07.2016

Hi guys,
Any chance we can get how much time the SetTimer is counting? like imagine it has 5 min of countdown and some time passes, can we do a line that gets how much time is left?
Cumpz,
Vasco

yes.

You create a var for hold the timer initial time.

Код:

new timerInitTime;
timerInitTime = gettime();
SetTimerEx("yourfunc", 666666, true, "i", YourParam);

Then, to get the time :

Код:

timeCount = (gettime() - timerInitTime;

Notice that the time you get is in seconds.
You can multiply the result with 1000 to get the time in miliseconds.

You can use gettime() for seconds, or GetTickCount() for milliseconds. Multiplying seconds by 1000 won't give you an accurate measurement of milliseconds.
