Anyone know what the smallest timer increment (if there is one) that you can use with the Every X seconds function of the timer?

Thanks

    I think that is related with your FPS!

    Why do you say that? I'm talking about milliseconds?

    I saw someone have a test, when spawn an actor every 1/30, so it can spawn 30 actor per sec,
    but if you set to spawn every 1/100, then less than 10 actor can spawn.

    The lowest I've used is 0.01, it's certainly quicker than 0.1 or 0.05, but I'm not sure if it is actually 0.01 of a second in practice.

    .035 seems about the quickest

    I generally don't go below .1 to avoid problems.
    To do smaller amounts...I build my own timer with the self.time attribute...which is always 100% reliable.

    Sometimes when I use the timer at 0.1, the timer goes more or less.
