Rgss's time system

[kryptonator]

I think I am gonna have problems explaining this, so here goes.

I am learning so I am trying to figure out how to use time in rgss so I will explain in a simple scenario fashion and hopefully someone can help me understand how to script in time scenarios.

I have 1 event on the map with a character graphic doing absolutely nothing but standing there motionless, after 20 seconds the event deletes.

I know this can be done with events but the example above is not important, what is, is that if someone can explain how I would set the time or time limit to 20 seconds in rgss I can take that as a base and learn on my own from there.

Any information even if it's only a paragraph or 20 paragraphs any help for learning the time in rgss will be very welcome, (the deletion of the event isn't important just used in example)

It works, but I was hoping for info on how to use this stuff.

hour = @total_sec / 60 / 60
min = @total_sec / 60 % 60
sec = @total_sec % 60

Would that help me use time in scripts without using events? if not what would or is it possible?

You have helped though.

mmm, you may take a look at a script I posted today... it may tell you something about how it works.
