else

}

Not true in this case:
PHP Code:
#define FRAMES_IN_SECOND 100
Change for frame count that you need, since my example plugin use seconds precision. If you want to do with more delay, adjust define:
PHP Code:
#define FRAMES_IN_SECOND 100
#define FRAMES_IN_MINUTE 6000
#define FRAMES_IN_HOUR 360000
Also server_frame hooked via fakemeta can be disabled and enabled in some situations, and the hook itself without execute any task inside function (Only using if) will not affect server performance.
