| Syntax |
| Tick = TICKER( Ticker ) Tick = TICKER( Ticker, TickOnce ) |
| Description |
| This function will return one of the following values: 0 - No tick is due 1 - Tick 2 - Final tick 3 - Ticker has expired Once the ticker has returned a Final tick (value of 2), any further calls to the ticker will return a value of 3 immediately. If your game loop is too slow and misses a tick, this function will remember how many ticks have been missed. When combined with a loop, this will allow your game to play ‘catch-up’ on any missing ticks. If you do not want or need this functionality, then you can specify a non-zero value for TickOnce when calling the function. |
