How to use Game.Instance.Engine.RealTimeSchedule.Schedule?

#1 Game.Instance.Engine.RealTimeSchedule.Schedule(Milliseconds, YourFunctionName);

so...

Game.Instance.Engine.RealTimeSchedule.Schedule(10000, SpawnBomb);


once that line of code is executed, in 10 seconds, the SpawnBomb function will be called.

Also, the function has to have the arguments:
(object sender, ScheduledEventArguments scheduleEventArguments)

Don't know how to use the scheduleEventArguments, or what they are.

#2 Thanks, I'll tinker with the method declaration a bit.

Does it have to be static or can it be a member of a class?

#3 Thanks again. I've gotten it up and running now. The only thing I'm trying to figure out is cancelling schedules.
I'm not sure if I just got spoiled by TGB and torquescript so, I'm not sure if it's possible.

Is it possible to cancel a schedule?

#4 That I don't know, but I'd like to.

Also, I'd like to know how to pass arguments to the scheduled function.

#5 for removing the Scheduled task:

int iTmp = Game.Instance.Engine.RealTimeSchedule.Schedule(1000, Function);
Game.Instance.Engine.RealTimeSchedule.Remove(iTmp);

For passing info into a scheduled delegate function:

Game.Instance.Engine.RealTimeSchedule.Schedule(1000, dostuff, "helllo");

void dostuff(object sender, ScheduledEventArguments scheduleEventArguments)
{
   string x = scheduleEventArguments.DataToSend as string;
}

#6 can you only pass 1 argument?

#7 As far as I'm aware. You could wrap several variables up in a class and pass the class as an argument. Hope that helps.

#8 Beautiful. This helps a bunch. Thanks Gavin.

#9 Most welcome, glad I could actually help :-)
