Elapsed time

Hello there

 

sorry if it's been asked before !

 

I have a new challenge, try to use lua for some scripts in the ME.

 

I am using the ME for some years without problems. Until now, I was only using basic rules for triggers.

 

This morning I decided to try those misterious DO SCRIPT actions... Without succes of course.

 

So, after reading some topics here (the sticky one about LUA), I wanted to do some basic stuff BUT I am a total noob in coding. I don't understand the LUA syntax.

 

Is there a good fellow here that could help me in order to achieve that ?

 

I ve tried these singletons :

Time function timer.getTime()

function trigger.action.outText(string text, Time delay)

 

My goal (e.g)

A plane enter a trigger zone at a given speed and altitude, a few moment later it enter a second trigger zone. I would like to display on the screen the elapsed time between those two zones !

 

Is that something easy to code in the ME with some scripts ?
