Need help for a script

[NuKa_BuBble 2]

Hy everyone, I make a script and actually, it works perfectly. But now I'm really stuck. The situation: The player can turn the event self switch C ON. I want to put a timer on this event page that make the self switch turn OFF after 30 seconds. But this timer must be make in the script. How I can do that?

$game_switches[switch_number] = True

or

$game_switches[27] = False

 

the switch_number is a Number of the Switch you use. Is that what you are asking?

I imagine you mean more the timer part more than just flipping the switch.

Here's a little demo for it.

This is for switches. NuKa_BuBble wants to deal with selfswitches, which is entirely different. Usage for selfswitches is:

$game_self_switches[key] = true/false

Using:

key = [map_id, event_id, switch_id]

With:

• map_id: ID of the map the desired event is on (as displayed in the project editor)
  
• event_id: ID of the desired event (as displayed in the project editor)
  
• switch_id: ID of the switch to change (0 = A, 1 = B, 2 = C, 3 = D)

Speaking of which, can Battles use Self Switches? Those buttons always seem to fail for me trying to use temporary battle self switches from Database / Troops / Event Commands...

I already know how to turn a switch on/off, thank you to reply that fast. I'll try to be more precise. This event. When the player turn it ON, a timer for this event ID is start. When the event ID timer is equal to 30s, it turn's OFF. I also want that if the player leave the map, all the listed events ID timers continu to run until the switch is turn OFF again. Like if you cut grass, the grass will grow again.

 

Edit: Looks like ForeverZero did. I'll see if that can be useful.
