Solved Repeating a delayed task

Hello, I've aware that repeated tasks are just straight up not great to use. I've heard of a work around but I'm not sure how to do it and it's that you can run a delayedtask and have the task repeat itself if a condition is met.

Any ideas?

Yeah I understood that part, just curious on assigning the runnables. They only seem to take ints?

Yeah I knew how to do this with repeated tasks, which I guess I will just go with because the alternative seems not much better anyways. I was more asking how do I have a scheduleSyncDelayedTask repeat itself, basically not using repeatedTasks but instead just repeating the delayed task if a parameter was met but registering it.

I figured it out. For anyone in the future wondering how to do this, you use BukkitTask and cast it to scheduled runTaskLater Runnable.

For example,

Code:

BukkitTask runnable = Bukkit.getScheduler().runTaskLater(plugin, new Runnable() {

            public void run() {

               
            }
           
        }, 20);
