Flow

The Seconds Timer node sends a pulse from the UpdatingUser at the specified interval of seconds.

Inputs

Interval (float)

The interval in seconds to send pulses at.

Outputs

OnUpdate (Call)

Sends a pulse at every Interval seconds from the UpdatingUser.

Globals

UpdatingUser (User)

The user that the OnUpdate pulse will be generated from and owned by.

SkipIfNull (Bool? -> bool)

If True, no pulses will be generated if UpdatingUser is null. Otherwise, impulses will be generated by the host user if UpdatingUser is null.
