Used to check the last starting time and date of a resource

Syntax

int getResourceLastStartTime ( resource theResource )

OOP Syntax Help! I don't understand this!

Method: resource:getLastStartTime(...)
Variable: .lastStartTime


Required Arguments

  • theResource: The resource of which you'd like to check the last starting time.

Returns

If successful, returns the UNIX timestamp when the resource was last started, or the string "never" if the resource has not been started yet, otherwise false. Use in conjunction with getRealTime in order to retrieve detailed information.

Example

This function outputs to chatbox when the current resource was started.

function whenStarted()
    local startTime = getResourceLastStartTime ( getThisResource() )    --Get the time and date
    outputChatBox( "This resource was started on: " .. startTime )    --tell everybody when the current resource was started.
end
