This function returns the timing method to be used for rendering your game.
The method can be one of the constants listed below:
| Display Timing Method Constant | |
|---|---|
| Constant | Description |
| tm_sleep | The sleep margin value is the main timing method |
| tm_countvsyncs | Vsync timing is the main timing method (default for all supported platforms) |
| tm_systemtiming | System timing is the main timing method |
For more information on the different timing methods, please see display_set_timing_method.
display_get_timing_method();
Display Timing Method Constant
if (display_get_timing_method() != tm_sleep)
{
display_set_timing_method(tm_sleep);
if (display_get_sleep_margin() != 20)
{
display_set_sleep_margin(20);
}
}
The above code will check the timing method and if it's not set to tm_sleep it will be set to that and the sleep margin set to 20.
