Script-Tick

script-tick is executed once every in-game tick (typically every frame, but potentially less depending on configuration), providing the marker as context.

warning

Because this executes on every game tick, it can impact FPS significantly if you aren't careful with your logic!

Default Parameters:

Parameter	Type	Description
marker	Marker	A reference to the marker firing the script.
gameTime	GameTime	A reference to the current gameTime object.
