## What it is
UnityTimer is a C# library for Unity3D that lets you register actions to run after a delay, with support for looping, cancellation, and time-scale control. It replaces verbose coroutines and manual time-tracking with a simple, expressive Timer.Register API.

## Use cases
- run an action after a delay in unity
- schedule repeating callbacks in a unity game
- cancel a pending timer in unity
- use timers without monobehaviour coroutines
- make timers unaffected by timescale changes

## When to choose
- you need expressive, cancellable, loopable timers in Unity without coroutine boilerplate
- you want timers usable from non-MonoBehaviour classes
- you need timers that can ignore Time.timeScale

## When to avoid
- you are not developing with Unity3D
- you only need simple one-off delays and are happy with coroutines
- you need a scheduler for server-side or non-game workloads

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: scheduling, concurrency, game-engine
- domain: developer-tools
- platform: game-engine, cross-platform
- tags: unity, timers, csharp, delayed-actions, game-logic, game-development, automation
