Delay Time

Hey guys,

If I want to make a delay in-between each use of a command, how would I do it?

Thanks everyone,

So, say I was you, and I wanted the same thing:

Make a method, and inside that method, make a runnable. At the beginning of the method, make an integer. Access that integer in a per-second runnable below it, and subtract from it. After the cooldown has reached zero, return.

 

HeartandSoul is a good method but can cause some lag. Another way of doing this is saving System.getCurrentTimeMillis(); in a hashmap and when the player runs the command again check the different between the time of use and the current time.

 

Here's some easy made pie. You can just schedule a delay with the Bukkit scheduler.. Use a Boolean to control if the next command can be ran or not. The delay will change the Boolean.

 

Agreed.. I am still a bit rusty.
