Removing numbers from a Variable

[Goodmaster1233]

why doesn't
remove 1 from {mutetime} work?

Give us your code and any errors that you might receive from that code.

My code is: remove 1 from (mutetime.%loop-player)
Errors: None

Your full code, I meant. Sorry.

My code is: remove 1 from (mutetime.%loop-player)
Errors: None

it must be a number to be able to remove, also %loop-player is not valid, it must be %loop-player%

and I recommend a better variable format, such as {mutetime::%uuid of loop-player%}

and if you are making a timer by removing 1 from it every time, that is not efficient, you should instead save it to a date and compare dates to check if mute has expired, not a constant auto-reduction (much better on performance)

I did that with my temporary punishments by using unix timestamps but it was variable hell :joy:
