Timer/Spawn

From Wiki001

Many people would think this is a weak feature, and probably think this is almost useless, unless for re-spawning characters a limited number of times, but it's not.

Timer/Spawn can be used for, but is not limited to:

• re-playing an event a limited number of times.
• re-spawning a character a limited number of times.
• used as a distance-triggered event (or re-spawn).
• delay a particular event.
