Duel.CheckTiming

Signature

Duel.CheckTiming(int timing) -> bool

Description

Returns whether the current core hint-timing masks contain timing for either player. This is a prompt-window helper, not a full activation legality check; no indexed local card script currently calls it directly. Use ordinary type/code/range, condition, cost, and target checks for real legality. See the Chain Timing And Activation Windows learning guide for full patterns. Pair this with Effect.SetHintTiming when an optional effect needs to be visible only during specific timing windows.

How To Use It

Use this in optional trigger or Quick Effect conditions when the effect should only be offered during specific client timing windows.

return Duel.CheckTiming(TIMING_END_PHASE)

This checks the current hint-timing masks from the duel state. Effect.SetHintTiming controls when an effect asks to be shown; Duel.CheckTiming answers whether the current window matches.
