Timed events

[LadaBr]

Sorry for another question but I really love your py package. I added chat functionality and it works great but I would like to do something like timed event that would repeat every X seconds. I want bot to create lobby for 5 minutes and tell how much time is remaining until lobby is abandoned or all players wont connect.

Example:

@dota.on('channel_join') def channel_joined(msg): print(msg) count = 0 max_time = 20 while True: if count > max_time: break dota.send_message(msg.channel_id,"Time remaining: " + str(max_time)) count = count + 1 time.sleep(1)

But when I use this code it always wait until entire loop is finished. Thanks for help.

I already solved it, Now I'm trying to find out whats wrong with something else.

I want to use this package together with django and uwsgi but when i try to load web page when steam client is running I always get this error:

You should spend some time reading how gevent package works. It can probably work with django, but there is some special magic you need to do. Using time.sleep will block your code, unless it's been monkey patched.
