waiting time for public command reverse counting

thank you CrazyCat i tried it this way would this be a proper way to clear the variable after the the threshold has been reached ?

Code:

bind pub -|- !wait pub:testwaitingtimeproc pub:testwaitingtime {nick uhost hand chan text} { global last_used if {![isop $nick $chan] && ![ishalfop $nick $chan] && ![matchattr $hand o|o $chan]} { return 0 } if {[info exists last_used($nick!$uhost)]} {    if {[clock seconds] - $last_used($nick!$uhost) < 60*1*1 } {        set calctime [duration [expr {60*1*1 - ([clock seconds] - $last_used($nick!$uhost))}]]        set calctime2 [expr {60*1*1 - ([clock seconds] - $last_used($nick!$uhost))}]       putserv "notice $nick :$uhost you cant because you need to wait $calctime"        if {$calctime2 < 2} { array unset last_used($nick!$uhost) }        return    }      } set last_used($nick!$uhost) [clock seconds]    putserv "privmsg $chan checked!!!!!!!"}

I think you play with tcl since enough time to be able to read and understand the code, and what it does or does not.

would the variable needs to be unset after threshold has been reached or is that cleared by eggdrop ?

This is simple mathematics.
If you want remaining time, just substract $duration from your delay:

Code:

set calctime [duration [expr {60 - ([clock seconds] - $last_used($nick!$uhost))}]]

greetingz gentz,

i was trying out this small code to count time remaining before able to use a public command again i found here :

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/140 ... -countdown

i came up with this:

Code:

bind pub -|- !rdigits pub:testwaitproc pub:testwait {nick uhost hand chan text} { global last_used  if {![isop $nick $chan] && ![ishalfop $nick $chan] && ![matchattr $hand o|o $chan]} { return 0 } if {[info exists last_used($nick!$uhost)]} {    if {[clock seconds] - $last_used($nick!$uhost) < 60*1*1 } {        set calctime [duration [expr {[clock seconds] - $last_used($nick!$uhost)}]]       putserv "notice $nick :$uhost you cant because you need to wait $calctime"        return    }}  set last_used($nick!$uhost) [clock seconds]    putserv "privmsg $chan checked!!!!!!!"}

so instead of output the remaining time to wait it seems to output the time that has been waited
