run QA once a day

[Jay Ess 6]

what is the optimal way of running a qa once a day?

by setting the interval in the qa or by running scene to trigger it?

 

many thanks.

Running interval in QA

[Jay Ess 6]

even if the interval is once a day? it seems like a waste of resources to keep the qa running all the time? or does it not use up any resources while it is waiting for the next interval? it must be counting down or something?

simplified: the interval in QA is not running in the the lua code itself, it is let say external timer. Even if scene engine has been designed to not run any code if trigger is not true (which will be only once a day in your case), it is still additional subtask in scene engine task, which at the end of the day checks more or less the same external timer. So yes, interval in QA will use bit less resources (from trigger/task point of view) and will consume no resource to intercommunicate between scene and QA.
