Summary

Okay, I'm trying to make a couple of events that happen an infinite amount of time, but have a "Cool Down" period if you will. For example: There is a maid that will cook you a meal that will restore MP for your party. However, she can only cook one meal every half hour. I know I'll need a script for this, and I've already gotten shaz's Extended Timer Functionality script. I'm absolutely useless with scripts, and I don't understand the posted directions.

Okay, I'm trying to make a couple of events that happen an infinite amount of time, but have a "Cool Down" period if you will. For example: There is a maid that will cook you a meal that will restore MP for your party. However, she can only cook one meal every half hour. I know I'll need a script for this, and I've already gotten shaz's Extended Timer Functionality script. I'm absolutely useless with scripts, and I don't understand the posted directions. I've tried reading them and messing around on my own, but I still can't make it work without either crashing the game or the event simply not working. If someone can help I would greatly appreciate it.

I'll include screenshots of what I'm doing, and what's going wrong.
