Only once time Timer

[NoviceWithManyProblems]

how can i make only once time Timer?

myTimer = setTimer(function()
    outputChatBox("only one time")
	killTimer(myTimer)
end, 1000, 0)

i have error: bad argument @ 'killTimer' expected Lua-timer at argument 1, got nil (killTimer(myTimer)

You dont need to use killTimer due to setTimer function already has an argument which allow you to execute the same function x times.

myTimer = setTimer(function()
    outputChatBox("only one time")
end, 1000, 1) --HERE IT IS, The las value '1' are the times that it is going to be executed.

For future cases, if you want to use killTimer function, be aware that you have to check first if the timer exists using the function.

isTimer()
