o.O so you have already a script that will be thread and works?
with notify and endon it could be possible but not sure

Code: Select all
mainFunction()
{
level endon ("restart_function");
thread count (20);
//Do stuff here
level notify ("restart_function");
}
count(time)
{
level endon ("restart_function");
wait time;
level notify ("restart_function");
}
loopFunctions()
{
while(1)
{
thread mainFunction();
level waittill ("restart_function");
}
}
Simply thread "loopFunctions()" to start it working.

Well, I can't think of a good reason to use the script personally, so maybe its best you just simply say what you are trying to do exactly.

Do you mean, like a shooting gallery/target practice?
Have you scripted this shooting game yet?
My advice would be to do the following, in this order:
- Create Map detail (ignore any scripted objects)
- Plan (and write down) exactly how you want the game to work (i.e moving objects, etc)
- Create each object in the map (scripted objects).
- Create a working code for the objects (without a timer)
- Implement a reset timer
