    I was working on a skript that would make a broadcaster to say certain things. However, I came across a bug with when I wrote "Every {duration} seconds:". It says that it cannot understand this event. Here is the code:
    Code (Text):
    1. every {duration} seconds:
    2.     if {active} is "true":
    3.         set {broadinteger} to a random integer between 1 and 3
    4.         if {broadinteger} is 1:
    5.             set {broadcast} to {m1}
    6.         else if {broadinteger} is 2:
    7.             set {broadcast} to {m2}
    8.         else if {broadinteger} is 3:
    9.             set {broadcast} to {m3}
    10.         broadcast "&3&l[&bBroadcaster&3&l] &9%{broadcast}%"
    (Some background info: m1-m3 are the messages. Broadinteger is the random number picker to pick the message. And {active} is whether it is on or not.)

    You can't use variables in events, you have to use the on load event with a while loop. Examle:
    Code (Text):
    1. on load:
    2.     set {_time} to now
    3.     set {lastload} to {_time}
    4.     while {lastload} is {_time}:
    5.         broadcast "Every second!"
    6.         wait 1 second

    Also, from a programming view, you might want to use an incrementing message thing so you don't get the same message twice in a row (its tacky :emoji_stuck_out_tongue:)
    Code (Text):
    1. on load:
    2.     set {messages::1} to "Message One"
    3.     set {messages::2} to "Message Two"
    4.     set {messages::3} to "Message Three"
    5.     set {_time} to now
    6.     set {lastload} to {_time}
    7.     set {difference} to 10 seconds #time difference
    8.     set {loopnumber} to 1
    9.     while {lastload} is {_time}:
    10.         {active} is true
    11.         add 1 to {loopnumber}
    12.         if {loopnumber} is more than 3: #total amount of messages
    13.             set {loopnumber} to 1
    14.         broadcast "%{messages::%{loopnumber}%}%"
    15.         wait ({difference} parsed as timespan)
    16.  
    Also I didn't test this so hopefully it just works, been a while since I've done Skript
