| − | <b>Command History</b>

| − | <div class="mw-collapsible-content">
| |
| − | <div style="background:#ebebeb" width="100%">Available since <span style="color:orange">v3.7</span></div>

| − | | |
| − | Returns the number of milliseconds since the command was first called - or since the timer was reset! <br/>
| |
| − | Use this command for relative time measurements; for example: call getTime() at the beginning of an action & then again when the action has finished to get the time taken to perform said action!

| − | Syntax:
| |
| − | <syntaxhighlight>
| |
| − | getTime({flags=1, reset})
| |
| − | </syntaxhighlight>
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | Example:
| |
| − | <syntaxhighlight>
| |
| − | -- let's store the current time in a variable & then check it against current time!
| |
| − | local initialTime = getTime()
| |
| − | | |
| − | -- we'll use this function to check current time elapsed & decided what action to perform!
| |
| − | function checkTime()
| |
| − | if getTime() >= initialTime + 3000 then -- if current time more than equals initial time + 3 seconds then ...
| |
| − | -- do some action!
| |
| − | getTime({flags=1, reset=true}) -- let's reset timer back to zero!
| |
| − | end
| |
| − | end
| |
| − | | |
| − | -- the checkTime() function would be most effective, if included in a mainLoop event handler!
