TriggerSleepAction

Parameters

timeout

real

comment

Makes a trigger execution sleep for a given duration. The thread will yield so other threads can do their work.

note

This works only in a trigger action execution context, not in trigger conditions nor for example in timer functions or ForGroup functions. However, it also works in ExecuteFunc contexts, even if the ExecuteFunc call is not in a trigger action execution context.

note

This has many implications, see other trigger-related natives.

note

This ticks while the game was paused with the PauseGame native, unlike timers.

note

This does not tick while the game was paused by the user, neither in singleplayer nor in multiplayer. (But the Trigger Editor of the World Editor denotes it as a real-time wait. Is this a bug?)

note

This ticks independently from game speed, i.e., in Fast mode, it will be about the same as a game time, in Normal mode, it will be about 25% faster than game time and in Slow mode, it will be about 67% faster than game time, see table below.

Game speed	TSA speed (%)	game speed (%)
Fast	100%	100%
Normal	100%	80%
Slow	100%	60%

Example elapsed game time after TSA with timeout = 30:

Game speed	game time elapsed
Fast	30s
Normal	24s
Slow	18s

return type
