| Hi Gammon:
I'm new user for mushclient from china, I got strange problem for timmer in mushclient. I ran a lua script on a VPS(Virsual Private Server, OS: windows XP). Sometimes the timer in mush will be reset to over 20 minutes...
e.g: I add a timer to "say:hello" every 5 minutes, But after a while(maybe 20 minutes), I found the timer indicate the next "say hello" time is after 20 minutes.
I guess maybe the mushclient has some compatbility problem with some hardware or OS? how Can I do some trouble shooting for this issue?
Thanks
BRs

Hi:
The script I used is same as other players in same mud. They do not have such problem. Meanwhile, I try it on the real PC(Not a VPS), it seems work well(run about 2 hours, no any idle and the timer works fine).I tried on 4.84, the issue can be reproduced too.
Please check this screenshot when issue happens:

The XML when issue happens:
<timers>
<timer name="timeup_li" enabled="y" minute="1" second="15.00" offset_second="0.00" send_to="12"
>
<send>g_quests.li.timeup = true</send>
</timer>
</timers>
<timers>
<timer name="home" enabled="y" minute="1" second="30.00" offset_second="0.00" send_to="12"
group="home" >
<send>home()</send>
</timer>
</timers>
below is the normal codtion's timer:
<timers>
<timer name="home" enabled="y" minute="1" second="0.00" offset_second="0.00" send_to="12"
group="home" >
<send>home()</send>
</timer>
</timers>
<timers>
<timer name="timeup_li" enabled="y" minute="1" second="15.00" offset_second="0.00" send_to="12"
>
<send>g_quests.li.timeup = true</send>
</timer>
</timers>

| | The script might be changing the timer interval. Hard to say without seeing it. |

Hi, thanks for your reply, below is the function of setTimer in script:
function SetTimer(name, secs)
local minute = 0;
if secs >= 60 then
minute = math.floor(secs/60);
SetTimerOption(name,"minute",minute);
secs = secs - minute*60;
end
SetTimerOption(name, "minute", minute);
SetTimerOption(name, "second", secs);
ResetTimer(name);
end
I guess setTimerOption and ResetTimer is the System function. But I cannot see any tricky part in here.
