How do you stop a scheduled event?

by Chase Webb · in Torque 2D Beginner · 01/17/2015 (2:23 am) · 4 replies

I know how to stop a timer, but I can't figure out how to stop something I've scheduled from happening. Can someone show me an example of how to do this?

schedule() returns an eventId. call cancel(eventId).


Also.. isEventPending(eventId) will tell you if a schedule is waiting to run.
