Flood script required

Long story short:
getframe (50 frames = 1 sec) the modulo operator % (giving the remainder of a division) copy&paste the stuff for flooding from the flood weapon scriptIn the mission update (not drawing!) function:

if (getframe() % (50*5))==0 then -- insert flooding snippet here end
The remainder of getframe() / (50*5) is 0 every 5 seconds. That's how it works.
(You could also increase a variable each frame and execute the flooding when it reaches 50*5 but with the modulo solution you don't have to use a variable at all.)
EDIT: I did it, but I need to sort things out. I'll test some more. But you can consider your problem solved!
EDIT the second: I'm sort of done. However, I can't figure out how to implement sounds. But if you give me the map I can compose it to a level.

Johnfaber has writtenWell, I tried, and managed to make it create an error message every five seconds stating "flood" is a nil value. So I'm on the right track. Hold onto your whatever you use to hold on.

The mission will have 20+ maps, so, do you only need one or every one of them?

Johnfaber has writtenYou're welcome. Help you again anytime. You just post that thing soon so I can experiment with it.
Okay. I'll put you in the credits btw, when I upload the mission.
Johnfaber has writtenThanks, I appreciate it. You don't mind if I use the script for myself?
User "Myself" or you? Btw, of course you can, you made the script.
