Usage:
Include timer.lua
Code: Select all
timer.new( delay, extra repitions(-1 will never stop), callback, ... arguments )
This returns a timer object, of which these functions are applicable:
Code: Select all
timer:update( dt )
timer:setCallback( callback, ... arguments )
timer:stop( )
timer:start( )
timer:reset( boolShouldResetReps )
timer:setDelay( delay, reps )
Add this to update:
timer.newSimple:
Code: Select all
timer.newSimple( delay, callback, ... arguments )
Public domain.
Timers.love- Press any key, a "Hello world" will display 5 seconds after.

I just looked at it, but it would be even nicer if you could just update individual timers. (or at least have the possibility to do so) Example:
Code: Select all
mytimer = timer.new(5, print, "5 seconds passed")
mytimer:update(dt)
--or double speed
mytimer:update(dt*2)

The thread is titled "
Simple timers" for a reason.
Might do an advanced version later.

Isn't that hard, is it?
Talking about usage I think it makes things easier.

I already made this as part of the short-lived kudoLib, sigh, but good job anyway.
