How does the cvar 'wait' work? im trying to make a script that at some part waits 15 sec. so Ill need the command wait but I wondered are the numbers after wait milli sec or has it something to do with fps?

There is an ET command site that I use for references and it states that it counts 'ticks.'

Sorry that this cannot be more help. In my experience, a tick can be anything, but usually a second.

Wait is in milliseconds, so wait 1000 = 1sec

Thanks for clarifying that 999, because I didn't know that either.

Thx for the relpies, i also read about those ticks ;)

hey, some more info i found out:

the wait time actually varies depending on your frames per second, how exactly i dont know, but you can modify your fps while you are executing a wait command to make it more exact.

it seems like wait will extend what ever action you are doing:

+attack // will continue to attack until you write -attack
+attack; -attack // activates attack and deactivates it
+attack; wait 100; -attack // continues to attack for "100" then deactivates attack

but wait blows sometimes cuz it doesnt mean do one action, wait, then do another action. it means continue doing what you are doing for some time.

rambling-lets say you want to attack for 20 seconds, wait 20 seconds, then jump for 10 seconds: but you wont be able to move for that middle wait because you are executing -attack for 20 seconds, supposedly.

soooo what is it good for? dont know but a strafe script uses it well so this moves you left for "10" then moves right "10"
or if ur lazy you can use for arming dynos after you throw it down so bind that baby and it will whip out your pliers and arm for "100" and you wont have to hold down ur mouse button.

that's all i got for now. hope it adds something to the conversation
