Remaining time or counter

[savaskorkmaz]

Single resident script that I've posted can handle multiple timers.

Erwin's script saves process ID into storage. You can stop the script like this, change scriptname as needed:

Code:

scriptname = 'my_event_script'

key = 'PID:' .. scriptname
pid = storage.get(key)
if pid then
  os.kill(pid, signal.SIGKILL)
  storage.delete(key)
end

But this approach is not 100% correct though because in some rare cases several event script instances can run in parallel.
