public void WaitTimer.Stop()Moves the start time five days into the past, making short intervals immediately eligible. This does not stop the bot or its components.

WaitTimer
Track a time interval without blocking the bot. Keep the same timer instance between ticks and reset it after the periodic work.

}Requires System and DreamPoeBot.Loki.Common. This is a helper class, not a discoverable plugin: own one instance in your component and call its Start/Tick. The timer is a field, so it survives between ticks. Stop makes this timer eligible; it does not suspend the component.
