Do something forever

[rusztamas]

Hi!
I'd like to make an object which is attached to the player, and "floats" above his head, like, up and down, slowly. But i dont know how to make the object return to its previous position. I think i dont need timers and triggers here, just simple lua, but i dont really know the way how to do it.
It would look like this:
Places object(
Moves object up, in 1000ms
Moves the object down in 1000ms.)

This would be forever.

You can attach objects to players with attachElements

You have to use attachElement and moveObject, but you can't do this without timers, there is no other way to tell when object is finished moving.

There is a way to do it without timers, but it's much more simple with them. If you want to, you can do with getTickCount and a while cycle.

Actually interpolateBetween has 2 recursive easing types, "SineCurve" and "CosineCurve", no need for a loop or timers.
