The tick timer (there is only one) is designed to track just that, MUD ticks. For anything else involving time, you should use alarms. If, for example, you need to execute something every three seconds, you use an alarm like this one:
#ALARM {*3} {commands}

First, give the alarm and ID. You can give an ID to an alarm either through the Settings Editor: in the Options tab for that alarm. You can also give an ID to an alarm when creating it in the command line. Example:
#ALARM "myAlarm" {*3} {commands}
To disable the alarm, you then do:
#T- ID
and to enable it:
#T+ ID
