Summary

Function: float llGetAndResetTime( );

Returns a float that is script time in seconds and then resets the script time to zero.

Specification

Script time is the amount of time the script has been running since it first started, was most recently reset, or one of the reset functions was called. It is unaffected by time dilation.

Examples

<lsl> default {

   state_entry()
   {
       llResetTime();
   }
   touch_start(integer num_touch)
   {
       // This is equivalent to calling llGetTime(), then llResetTime()
       float time = llGetAndResetTime();
       llSay(PUBLIC_CHANNEL, (string)time + " seconds have elapsed since the last touch_start() event.");
   }

}

</lsl>

Notes

Script time is the amount of real-world time that the script has been in a running state. It is unaffected by time dilation, but it does not count time while the script is suspended, the user is offline (when in an attachment), the object is in inventory rather than rezzed, etc.
