Timer on python

[Sober 37]

Guys i am trying to figure out how to do a timer on metin2 client.

i use the function

time.sleep(3)

but the client freezes for 3 seconds xD Any ideas on how to do it without freezing?

[Sanchez 2986]

time.sleep is equal with thread.sleep in common program languages and that is not equal with timer. For timer you can use the default OnUpdate function or use the official one: https://docs.python.org/release/2.5.2/lib/timer-objects.html

global name 'timer' is not defined

I get this error when i try these.

		t = timer(3.0,__hideKillsGuiBg)
		t.start()

I tried: from threading import Timer

but i get an error : there isn't any module called threading 

[Sanchez 2986]

Are you sure you have threading in your lib folder?

[Sober 37]

i don't have anything named threading.pyc or something like that in the libs , how can i import it?? Does it need any change on the binary?

[Sanchez 2986]

Just copy the Lib folder from Python to your client.

[Sober 37]

I found a threading.pyc in the lib folder but i get the error bad magic number.I think the lib was for python2.6 but my client uses python2.7 Could someone please give me the threading.pyc for 2.7?

[ShuzZzle 28]

Nvm. You can download the Libs from the Python website

[Frozen 213]

You can use this:

if app.GetTime() < timeyouwant:
               code the part when the timer is running
else
            after timer stopped

Guys, what about use new thread for sleep so game will not freeze? xD

[codesyntax]

import thread

import app

import chat

 

def test():

 app.Sleep(3000) # 3 seconds

 chat.AppendChat(chat.CHAT_TYPE_INFO, "hello world")

 

thread.start_new_thread(msg, ())

[/codesyntax]

app.sleep freezes the game, is it tested?

[Zetsu 83]

app.sleep stop the game. In 10 minutes i will come with my timer version I took it from switchbot xD

app.sleep just freeze the game,he doesn't want that

There is no need to make that, he can simply write this:

define a variable for your action, for example you whant to make a timer when you buy.
When you buy a thing you define sothing like this:
self.buytime = app.GetTime()

and then you whant to wait like 30 seconds before you can buy, you can write this:

import time
if app.GetTime() < self.buytime+30:
               code the part when the timer is running
else:
            after timer stopped
            Here you make a action so he can buy again.

You are wrong because with the if statement it's checks only once,you need to use while loop

[ѕeмa™ 352]

You are wrong because with the if statement it's checks only once,you need to use while loop

you can put the timer in "onupdate" and work perfectly with app.gettime()

[Frozen 213]

You are wrong because with the if statement it's checks only once,you need to use while loop

But i was talking if he was working with action, like for example chat action, whennever you talk that if executes.

[pySmith 4]

There is a simple way:

def myfunction_took_long_to_execute():
     for i in range(500000000000000000000000000000000000):
          print i
     return i
def myfunction_took_long_to_execute_with_yield():
     for i in range(500000000000000000000000000000000000):
          print i
          yield None
     return i

I would post a better example, but Ymir Client times are long ago...
