Help adding a timer in-between emotes to stop spam. Please.

Tibzy · Nov 15, 2023

Hey guys i have spent a few hours on this myself but i'm just not that great with C# at this stage. If someone could please help me add a timer in between emotes to stop players being able to spam them. Any help would be much appreciated.

Here is the script. I also included it as an attachment.

//Emote v2 by CMonkey123
/*
v2 changes:
-Shortened script
-Added emotes (thanks to zire):
bow, faint, punch, slap, stickouttongue, tapfoot
-Added emote gump (thanks to zire)
*/
/* Emote v3 by GM Jubal from Ebonspire http://www.ebonspire.com
* I Left the above comments in here for credit to properly go back to those whom originally wrote this
* I simply made it so that the [e command would call the gump if used by itself or if the <sound> was
* misspelled, shortened the code down from 1300+ lines down to only 635 lines including these comments.
* Also fixed a couple of typos in the script.
* This has been tested on both RunUO beta .36 and RunUO RC0 1.0
*/
/* Emote v4 by Lysdexic
* Updated for RunUO 2.0 RC2
* Puke command could be used for teleport bug... removed that ability.
* Typos again...

Someone probably knows this better than me, but I guess you can try:
