Clock

Unclassified Timing 2 in 1 out 3 config ⬚ 1x1

Automatically emits an execution pulse at the configured interval forever. Use it for repeating actions such as timers, animation steps, or periodic checks.

Diagram

Ports drawn from the source data: inputs left, outputs right, config inside.

How it's used

Emits a periodic exec pulse forever — the heartbeat for anything that updates on an interval.

Tick animations
Poll a condition every N seconds
Spawn waves

Run every 2 seconds while enabled

on Clock(interval = 2.0, enabled = running) {
  // runs every 2s when 'running' is true
}

Documented. A Clock can miss a button press shorter than its interval — use Edge on the input for presses, not Clock.

Example grounded in the wirescript built-ins docs (documented behavior). Wirescript is the community language; in-game you wire the equivalent gates by hand, and names can differ from the UI label.

Wire inputs

Wires you feed into the gate.

Display name	Type	Tooltip
Enabled (bEnabled)	bool	No tooltip in source
Interval Seconds (IntervalSeconds)	float	No tooltip in source

Wire outputs

Wires the gate produces.

Display name	Type	Tooltip
Pulse	exec	No tooltip in source

Configuration properties

Set on the gate itself in its properties panel — not wired. Distinct from inputs.

Display name	Type	Tooltip
Pulse On (bPulseOn)	bool	No tooltip in source
Off Time Seconds (OffTimeSeconds)	float	No tooltip in source
On Time Seconds (OnTimeSeconds)	float	No tooltip in source
