What happens if onTimer() functions takes long time than I set

[JAVOKHIR SHOMURATOV]

I set  EventSetTimer() to 1 which means  onTimer() functions is called at every 1 second. Now I am wondering what happens if onTimer() function takes more time than 1 second to execute ?

Timer go off, an event is added to the queue (assuming not one there already). New tick arrives, an event is added to the queue (assuming not one there already).

When existing code returns, the next item in the queue is processed.

Duplicate events are discarded. This is why you miss ticks.

I add this code to OnTimer() to confirm it is working
