I grabbed a roundtime trigger for Dragonrealms earlier,

After using the debugger, I notice it SPAMS its pattern. But its pretty effective for a round time trigger.

What do you guys think? This is the trigger.. (part of a system of triggers, but this is the spammer)

Pattern: * 1
Execute: #if (@RoundTime) {#add RoundTime -1} {#T- tRTAlarm}
Type: Alarm

Thanks :)

There probably is a better way to do it, but we might have to see the related triggers to give advice on it. For instance, how is the @roundtime variable set?

Pattern: Q
Exec: Nothing

Triggerstate off Q-

Pattern: q
exec: roundtime = %eval(%gsl(Q)-%gsl(q));#T+ tRTAlarm
type: gsl

What exactly are you trying to determine? what the round time is? If that's so, have you tried using the Tick Timer? It may be more in line with what you want.
