whichTimer

The timer to start. An already started timer will stop it's current countdown and start the new one instead.

timeout

The countdown time, this is the interval if the timer is reoccurring. A value of 0 works which means that the timer will be finishing in the shortest (non 0) time possible in wc3.

periodic

A flag indicating if the timer is periodic (reoccurring)

handlerFunc

A code reference to a function that will be executed when the timer finishes. The function should take and return nothing.
