I guess you load your addon during a running round. So, when the round ends, "my_delay" is still 0.

ic i'll do some more testing
is there anyway to stop all the running delays?
because when i unload the script the delay is still running ... XD

You have to cancel your delay when you unload your addon. But you don't really need a delay here (or even better a repeat). You can just use this snippet to get notified instantly without a possible delay.

Syntax: Select all

from events import Event
from filters.players import PlayerIter

@Event
def player_death(game_event):
    check_last_human_ct()

@Event
def player_team(game_event):
    # Called if a player disconnects or changes the team
    check_last_human_ct()

def check_last_human_ct():
    if len(PlayerIter(['ct', 'alive'])) == 1:
        print('Last human CT')

yea i know i can do that but i just want to play with delay
anyway problem solved with canceling delay

As Ayuto mentioned, though, if you want a repeating delay, it would be better to use a TickRepeat. I will work on that Wiki page tonight, but I think examples exist on the forums, somewhere.

yea i was searching for repeat but i couldn't find it
but i DO remeber seeing the word repeat somewhere on the forum
but whatever using looped delay works for now
