timeex()

Returns the time in seconds since the moment it was triggered.

Usage & Examples

This function can be used for anything that needs to reset on start and increase over time.

Clamp

clamp(5 + timeex(), 5, 10)


When shown, the proxy starts at 5 and increases over time thanks to timeex(), clamp(input, min, max) is used to limit the output so the value never goes above 10.

Rainbow Color

hsv_to_color(timeex() * 50)


Here timeex() is used as the (h)ue input for hsv_to_color(h, s, v) which changes the color over time. Multiplying the timeex() by 50 speeds up the color transition.

Ping Pong Loop

sin(timeex())*25
