Timed Pointshop Perks/Weapons

[Bassnecter]

So despite looking around, is there anyway to create timed powerups/weapons? I tried creating a timer.simple function which didnt work for whatever reason. Heres my code which is basic and the timer most likely will be used for every weapon/powerup I make:

ITEM.Name = 'Extreme Conditioning'
ITEM.Price = 0
ITEM.Material = 'vgui/entities/extreme_conditioning.vmt'
ITEM.SingleUse = true

local speed = 500

function ITEM:OnEquip(ply)
	ply:SetWalkSpeed(speed)
end

function ITEM:PlayerDeath(ply)
	ply:SetWalkSpeed(250)
end

Im trying to make it so the player after purchasing the perk is given a temporary speed boost for x seconds. After that, the perk/powerup is worn off

Okay, read the wiki page for timer.Simple - you don't seem to fully understand its usage as you have not inserted any code to be executed once it's finished
