i straight inputed both codes just as is on forums, with a clientside loop checking the string and displaying the text

Try assigning your hours/minutes/seconds to variables.

Ok i took them all out and assigned them to var's then set the string this is what happened
2. 0.035332 secs JagenTest
8. 0.006543 secs SernTest

-_- and i didnt initialize it yet

Has anyone pointed out that yours uses days/hours/minutes rather than hours/minutes/seconds?

Just a thought.

NPC Code:

---

if (created) {

  with (getplayer(Python523)) {

    this.temp = playeronlinetime;

  }

  this.temp = this.temp / 60^2;

  this.realhrs = int(this.temp);

  this.temp = this.temp - this.realhrs;

  this.temp *= 60;

  this.realmin = int(this.temp);

  this.temp = this.temp - this.realmin;

  this.temp *= 60;

  sendtonc H: #v(this.realhrs)  M: #v(this.realmin) S: #v(this.temp);

}

I seemed to have much more accurate time with Jagens, and I tried both.

.... .... .. more accurate time??? lol the debate wasn't about which ones more accurate cause they both return the same time in real time, but it was over which has more load on the cpu. Before you post again refer to rule 4 here http://forums.graalonline.com/forums...cement.php?f=8

Um, Sern, that person didn't post a solution.

I was commenting, Maybe you should buy Hooked on Phonics before you go insulting my opinion. There was no solution in my post.

I have tested them both offline with similar setup and it shows yours faster than Jagens.

I do not know how accurate the CPU usage indicator in the offline debugger is.

I used the following scripts.

Jagen's Method:

PHP Code:

if (playerenters) {
  timeout = 0.05;
}
if (timeout) {
  this.temp = 23212613;
  this.temp = this.temp / 60^2;
  this.realhrs = int(this.temp);
  this.temp = this.temp - this.realhrs;
  this.temp *= 60;
  this.realmin = int(this.temp);
  this.temp = this.temp - this.realmin;
  this.temp *= 60;
  message H: #v(this.realhrs)  M: #v(this.realmin) S: #v(this.temp);

  timeout = 0.05;
} 


~0.053-0.069 cpuusage

Sern's Method

PHP Code:

if (playerenters) {
  timeout = 0.05;
}
if (timeout) {
  this.temp = 23212613;
  this.hours = int(this.temp/(60*60));
  this.mins = int((this.temp/60)%60);
  this.secs = int((this.temp)%60);
  message #v(this.hours)H:#v(this.mins)M:#v(this.secs)S;

  timeout = 0.05;
} 


~0.043-0.048 cpuusage

Edit: I do not know why Sern's cpuusage is less.

This is offline. Scripts may be processed completely differently online.

Mine deals with more variable manipulation, so maybe that adds some extra cycles... However, I was talking about the efficiency mathematically, which would be true in my case.

Let us moderators handle the moderating.

Maybe you should buy Hooked on Phonics before you go insulting my opinion. There was no solution in my post

phonics has nothing to do with what i said, phonics is “a method of teaching beginners to read and pronounce words by learning the phonetic value of letters, letter groups, and especially syllables” so once again you strike out due to lack of common knowledge. this also does not exclude the fact that our debate has nothing to do with which one shows more accurate cause they both return the same time in real time, but it was over which one puts more load on the CPU.

this isn’t an attack I want to know how yours is more efficient mathematically? i dont see it

Hooked on phonics is a program to teach children to read, and comprehend better. You obviously didn't read what I read in the first place. I simply stated an opinion on the subject and you started thrashing about. You sent me a "rule" which completely passed up the point of my post. Therefor you probably didn't read my post very thuroghly or cannot read correctly.

Must I point out the obvious.

According to your post, a%b = a - int(a/b)*b

so if I translate Evil_Trunks's variation of your script

NPC Code:

---

  this.hours = int(this.temp/(60*60)); 

  this.mins = int((this.temp/60)%60); 

  this.secs = int((this.temp)%60); 

---

to

NPC Code:

---

  this.hours = int(this.temp/(60*60)); 

  this.mins = int(this.temp/60 - int(this.temp/60^2)*60); 

  this.secs = int(this.temp - int(this.temp/60)*60);

---

You tell me what looks more efficient. Mine or yours.

ah i see what you mean now you lost me for a second, yes your its better in that sence , mines better on cpu load

What hes been trying to prove to you in the past pages in this thread is that, mathematically, his script is more efficient then yours. Yes, yours doesnt take up as much space as his does, but it doesnt make yours more efficient then his.
