Summary

Function: float llGetAndResetTime( );

Returns a float time in seconds.

Retrieves the time in seconds since since the last script reset, or since the last call to llResetTime/llGetAndResetTime, then resets the time to zero.

Caveats

Known to be reset by various events outside user control, such as sim resets. Reliable only for short term timing measurements.
