Help with creating delays

[lilkillerjk]

Hi, I'm fairly new to Lua and I'm trying to print a message to the chat box with a five second delay. I've figured to use a for loop so it iterates 9 times, but I can't get the delay of 5 seconds, please help.
This is what i currently have, missing the delay.

	
for secs = 45,0,-5 do

chat.AddText(Color(255,0,0) "[WARDEN] It is now War Day, prisoners have" + secs + "before they are KOS. There will be NO LR")
end

What would be the easiest way for me to use a delay, I looked into os.sleep and it doesn't seem to work well. app:delay didn't work either.

timer.Create("timerUniqueName", 5, 9, function ()
doStuff()
end)
[/lua]

Argument 1 is the unique identifier, argument 2 is the delay, argument 3 is the number of iterations, and argument 4 is the anonymous function with the code you want run.
