Converting Process() To Events

Let's say you would set the timer to 6, which means 6x500MS that it would be executed after 3000 MS (3 seconds). Why does this suck? Because you are calling it 5 times to much, just execute an event after 3000 MS. Like this;

Code:

public void statRestore(final Player p) {
        EventManager.getSingleton().addEvent(3000, new Event() { 
	    public void execute(EventContainer c) {        
		doJob();
                        c.stop();
	   }
	});
    }

Yeah exactly, you don't need timer inside a event.

Code:

public void statRestore(final Player p) {
EventManager.getSingleton().addEvent( new Event() {
                    public void execute(EventContainer c) {
                       code here
                        c.stop();
                    }
                }, ######);
}

Change the ######, to how much event waits before execution

Well after you create the method for the new event where do you call it? or does it automatically get called?

Common sense, No how could it automatically be called?
call that event method where u want to start it.(Also common sense)

how do u make it get called?

like what if you want a skull timer to go up

that involve u clicking nothing

how u make it go up?

i did this it does nothing.

Code:

else if(command.equalsIgnoreCase("GGGG")){
testddd = 50;
}
else if(command.equalsIgnoreCase("FFFF")){
sM(""+testddd+"");
}

public void TESTDRRR(final Player p) {
EventManager.getSingleton().addEvent( new Event() {
                    public void execute(EventContainer c) {
if (testddd > 0) {
testddd--;
   		   } else {
		   	  c.stop();
			}
                    }
                }, 3000);
}

From what I know I think it is supposed to be like this:

Code:

else if(command.equalsIgnoreCase("GGGG")){
testddd = 50;
TESTDRRR(p);
}

I think the problem was you hadn't executed the event, Therefore it had no effect because the event never took place. I think I am right if not please correct me.
