Timer

Timer is a better alternative to the timers that Gothic offers. The FrameFunctions and Anim8 packages are already based on it. It isn't possible to modify the current time, as this would only cause difficulties.

Dependencies

Initialization

Initialize with LeGo_Timer flag.

Timer.d on GitHub
