Hooks? How? Where? Which?

I want to write a script that automates a few things for me.

What hooks can I use if I want to run my check every Minute? Or 10 seconds before the end of a Budget cycle?

Also what is a good way to create options for such a script? Probably adding a custom sidebar popout?

I would appreciate any help :)

I tried looking through the definitions/*hook.as files but couldn't make much sense of it yet.

Uhh... this doesn't involve hooks, and I can't say much more without knowing what you want to do...

Basically a way to run my Function either on occuring events (Planet level change, new planet colonized, before a budget cycle ends) and/or in fixed intervals.

The end goal is to automate building of population to the pop cap as mecha race but thats not the issue.

Currently I run the function via console command but that is really just a crude workaround for the moment.

I'm... stumped. Pretty much stumped, sorry.

No Problem I will figure it out eventually :D

Most classes seem to use a tick function that gets called from time to time. Not sure how it determines if a classes tick function gets called though.

I think I figured out the rough details. Every Mechanic Planet gains a special status. I can add an ability to that planet where the ability marks a planet to produce population.

Then I can have the ability call my Function in intervals.
