Important
Note

GetTickCount will cause problems on servers with uptime of over 24 days as GetTickCount will eventually warp past the integer size constraints. However using This function fixes the problem.


Tip

One common use for GetTickCount is for benchmarking. It can be used to calculate how much time some code takes to execute. See below for an example. 


public OnPlayerConnect(playerid)
{
    new count = GetTickCount();
    //Rest of OnPlayerConnect
    printf("Time taken to execute OnPlayerConnect: %d", GetTickCount() - count);
    return 1;
}
