Solved Question about looping.

[zaaaaak]

Looping help since I am new to Skript.
Let's say you had your average command.

command /hi:
trigger:
message "hi"

How would I add a looping system to this so when the player types the /hi command, the code will continue to run to the player every 40 seconds?

So 40 seconds pass by and they receive "Hi"
Another 40 seconds "Hi", etc...

But once they type /hi, this loop stops. Also, it is okay if it still says the "Hi" message one last time after the command is typed again.

Thanks for the help

You would need to use a variable to store a value, such as a boolean, and a while loop. So while something is true the loop will continue, as soon as they run the command again, set the variable to false and the loop will stop

on join:
    set {loopHI::%player%} to false
    
command /hi:
    trigger:
        if {loopHI::%player%} is false:
            set {loopHI::%player%} to true
        else:
            set {loopHI::%player%} to false
        while {loopHI::%player%} is true:
            send "hi" to player
            wait 40 seconds

            send "hi" to player
            wait 40 seconds

You could as well just clear the variable instead of setting it to false
