half second Alarm...
|
Greetings...
To optimize one of my scripts...
I would like to change one of my alarms (+1) to fire twice as fast...
that would be half a second...
I tried +0,5 ...but that does not work...
in the manual it says that half a second is possible....
Please tell me what syntax to use :)
Thanks & best Regards...

its *.501 :)
if its with "+", its temp alarm and +0.5 should work, notice the "." instead of ",".

Yep, programming tends to use english conventions, so a full stop instead of a comma for a decimal point.
#alarm test {+0.5} {do whatever}
where test is the name of the alarm (you don't have to include a name, but it helps to manage them)
As Progonoi said, for a recurring alarm then use *0.5 instead of +0.5 |

I bet it was just a typo but I'm still going to say that
| Code: |
#alarm "test" {*0.5} {do whatever}
|
WON'T work.
| Code: |
#alarm "test" {*.501} {do whatever}
|
WILL work.

i use +.01 alarms, so +.5 is certainly possible.

As far as I know, the temp alarm setup is a lot more flexable in the sense of numbers/exact numbers as perm alarms are.
That being said, I don't see why +.5 shouldn't be possible. I haven't tried it, though. More into permanent alarms myself if anything.
