hey guys, as some of you know, i released more than 10 usefull plugins for tgc community,
after my String Plugin that i made a month ago (i made it for ppl who have to work with lots of text/string manipulations - i added most of the formulas onto that)
so i finally decided to make some kind of timer plugin,
now i know there are lots of them already, but this one is little bit different, this one will change your way of thinking about timed-movement.

so basicly, for example, lets say you got an object you want to move from Point A to Point B in certain speed,
normally you do it simply like:
move object 1,Spd*5 //wich shows here some kind of timed movement.

but with my way, you will have to define time.
so you creating a formula that will move the object from Point A to Point B in 1 second.
that formula is calculated by my plugin.
so here is a small example that i was thinking of:

MyTimer = CreateTimer(1,50,90) //creates timer of 1 second with values of 50 to 90 (means timer will go from 50 to 90 in 1 second)

to apply this to an object, you do it something like:
Value = GetTimerValue(MyTimer) //this will return the Value of current timer we're using earlier. so lets say if if call this command after .5 second of your timer, the value will return 70.

for more features of the plugin, i could add PingPong timer, wich creates u timer from 50 to 90 and back.
or another nice option i could make is making 50 to 90 to start slow and end fast.

basicly you are able to use it on everything that has X,Y(Z) cordinations.
texts, animations, bones, movements, sprites and so on!

this is just an idea, i wanna know what you guys think of it?

Advanced Updater for your games!
