-- This is a dtime timer than can be used in on_step functions so it works every x seconds
-- self - Object you want to store timer data on. E.g. mob or a minecart
-- dtime - The time since last run of on_step, should be passed in to function
-- timer_name - This is the name of the timer and also the key to store the data. No spaces + lowercase.
-- threshold - The time before it returns successful. 0.2 if you want to run it 5 times a second.
