DX11 GET HIGH RESOLUTION TICK

Retrieves the current high resolution tick value.
This value is incremented at a significantly higher rate than the value returned by the millisecond-based
DX11 GET SYSTEM TIME function. As such it is appropriate for high resolution timing. The actual resolution
can vary between systems; you can use DX11 GET HIGH RESOLUTION DELTA TIME to get the number of seconds
between two tick values returned by this function.

Syntax

    Return Double integer = DX11 GET HIGH RESOLUTION TICK()

Parameters

    This function does not take any parameters.

Returns

The current high resolution tick time of the system. Note that this is a double integer; storing it to a normal integer will cause overflows.
