Get the time left before a projectile detonates.

Syntax

int getProjectileCounter ( projectile projectile )

OOP Syntax Help! I don't understand this!

Method: projectile:getCounter(...)

Variable: .counter

Counterpart: setProjectileCounter

Required Arguments

• projectile: the projectile to get the timer of.

Returns

Returns the the time in milliseconds to detonation which depending on the projectile type will do different things:

• Grenades will explode when it hits 0
• Teargas may be a duration timer
• Both types of rockets will explode when it hits 0
• Satchels restarts so I do not think it does anything

function getProjectileBoomTime()
outputChatBox("Time for "..getProjectileType(source).." to explode/end is "..getProjectileCounter(source).." miliseconds.",255,0,0)
end
addEventHandler("onClientProjectileCreation",root,getProjectileBoomTime)
