Timer help needed

[Newbie]

Since i never worked with timers, it looks hard to unerstand to me..

function buyHay (source) 
    thePlayer = source 
    cash = getPlayerMoney(source) 
    local nick = getPlayerName(source)   
    local x,y,z = getElementPosition(source) 
    local level = getElementData(source,"Level") 
    local hay = createObject(3374, x, y, z)  
    if level > 1 and cash > 10 then 
    setTimer(hay,2000) 
    givePlayerMoney ( thePlayer, -10 )  else 
    outputChatBox("You need more cash or your level does not meet the requirements", source, 255, 255, 255, true) 
    end 
    end 
addCommandHandler("buyhay", buyHay) 

it should create hay stack after 2 secs but does it instant

You forgot to define how much it repeats:

setTimer(hay,2000,1)  

  
1 = 1 time 
10 = 10 times 
0 = infinity

    if level > 1 and cash > 10 then 
    setTimer(createObject,2000,1,3374, x, y, z) 
    givePlayerMoney ( thePlayer, -10 )  else 
    outputChatBox("You need more cash or your level does not meet the requirements", source, 255, 255, 255, true) 
    end
