Opinion and info request

Good afternoon,

I am trying to write a skript that will enable an item (for the example I am using quartz ore, but I believe it will end up as a custom item.) to be provided to a player as a reward for playtime.

I want it only to deliver after 24 hours since it was last awarded to the player and further with a requirement to have been playing for at least an hour prior to delivery.

I wrote it with the understanding that skript timers get reset after server restart so periodical was not suitable due to the 24 hours requirement - and based on that I wanted it to record time last used, and then compare it to current date/time and if greater then 24 hours (1 day) it will issue the item again. I understand that the way it is written will log the time into a list of some sort.

My concern is that the parser throws up multiple errors:

""
Line 4: Can't understand this condition: '{_waited.%uuid of player%} is < 1 day' (script.sk, line 4: if {_waited.%uuid of player%} is < 1 day:')

Line 7: Can't understand this condition/effect: if player has enough space for "%arg 1& of quartz ore" (line 7: if player has enough space for "%arg 1& of quartz ore"') (The Parser doesn't support every syntax element.)

Line 8: Can't understand this condition: 'player has not enough space for "%arg 1& of quartze ore"' (script.sk, line 8: else if player has not enough space for "%arg 1& of quartze ore":')""

However, on searching the forums I have found instances of both of these functions recommended to be used for similar projects.

I have yet to run this, and I have more functions I want to write into it, but I thought best to ask the community first if there already was an established way to track/run this type of system that I may have missed in my search, it is my first time trying this so forgive me any mistakes as I am trying to learn as I go.

Any tips would be appreciated.
