1. first Checker call time - second Checker call time != 1.

2. i think the result will be changed as initial value of TickChecker[0].

gettime() | TickChecker[0]
[23:08:45] 1562681325 1562681327
[23:08:45] [dbg] Sent checkertick
[23:08:46] 1562681326 1562681327
[23:08:46] [dbg] Sent checkertick
[23:08:47] 1562681327 1562681328
[23:08:47] [dbg] Sent checkertick
[23:08:48] 1562681328 1562681329
[23:08:48] [dbg] Sent checkertick
[23:08:49] 1562681329 1562681330
[23:08:49] [dbg] Sent checkertick
[23:08:50] 1562681330 1562681331
[23:08:50] [dbg] Sent checkertick
[23:08:52] 1562681332 1562681332
[23:08:53] 1562681333 1562681332
[23:08:54] 1562681334 1562681332
[23:08:55] 1562681335 1562681332
[23:08:56] 1562681336 1562681332
[23:08:58] 1562681337 1562681332
[23:08:58] 1562681338 1562681332

this happens because next TickChecker[0]`s value is based on pre gettime(), and this not mean +2 seconds

your function usage is wrong

No it is not wrong, if not using the syntax inside the function it returns the year,hour,month,second,day in seconds e.g 15206501548

Anyone?

You have a 0 element array. I'm surprised that code even compiles.

I have tried without a 0 element array although, still having the same problem. :(

It could be crashing. It's hard to say without the rest of the code. Have you run this with crashdetect active?

This is how i would solve the problem.
I didn't try compiling it but it should work, let me know.

Code:
#define CHECKER_EXEC_INTERVAL_S     2

#define CHECKER_TIMER_INTERVAL_MS 1000

new nextCheckerTime;

public OnGameModeInit() 

{

   SetTimer("Checker", CHECKER_TIMER_INTERVAL_MS, true);

}

forward Checker();

public Checker()

{

   prinft("[DEBUG] Checker(): gettime() = %i, nextCheckerTime = %i", gettime(), nextCheckerTime);

   if( gettime() >= nextCheckerTime )

   {

       print("[DEBUG] Checker(): gettime() >= nextCheckerTime");

       // do shit here..

       nextCheckerTime = gettime() + CHECKER_EXEC_INTERVAL_S ; // Apply the next time value to this variable. When gettime() exceeds or equals this value the code within these brackets will be called again.

   }

}
