Orion Spell Timer Loop

Post by Alibaster »

I'm very green when it comes to scripting. I'm looking for a timer so I can loop a spell like Consecrate Weapon. I have the basic script to cast the spell but it only does it once. How do I look it every 10 seconds or so?

Something like this should work. (note Orion.Wait(1000) is approx 1 second)


while (!Player.Dead() )
{
//do whatever you want
Orion.Wait(10000);
}

Thanks but I'm lost on how to apply the time so the spell will loop every 10 seconds. this is what I am working with. Where do i add the timer?

function Consecrate(){
Orion.Cast('203');{
Orion.Wait(500);
}
}

Fairly basic script and it will fire off the spell one time and stop. I need to put it on a 10 second loop. Sorry for being so dense.



Update: I figured it out:

function Consecrate(){
while (!Player.Dead() ){
Orion.Cast('203');{
Orion.Wait(10000);
}
}
}
Thank you for the help. This is great!!
