/schedule, but with commands

Add the possibility to schedule commands instead of functions.
For example, this would make creating dialogues easier, as currently each message would require a function of its own.

The syntax could be /schedule command <time> <command>
Running the same command from a schedule would not overwrite it.

    I share that idea but scheduling should work with commands and functions and not instead of functions as you wrote.

    Letting it work for commands would also still let it work for functions, since a possible command is /function NAME.

    I agree, this is a great idea. Although I think the syntax would be better as

    /schedule [command|clear] command <time> [append|replace] <custom-id>, where the custom-id is used in the schedule clear <id> half of the schedule function.

    I think this could make the schedule command extremely useful (as of right now it is very useful also, it just encourages a lot of tiny otherwise-useless functions so that small events can be scheduled).

    Yes please. It is great that we got a schedule command. That makes rather complicated setups to get some sort of delay or time control irrelevant.

    But it should work with commands as well. Sometimes I just want to delay a very specific vanilla command (e.g. something stupid like "say hi") and have to set up a whole function in order to accomplish that. That inflates my already bloated function folder more.

    Bedrock already has this, as /event

    This would be awesome. If we can have the ability to schedule both, we can benefit from running functions on a schedule, as well as not having to make a new function to schedule a singular command!
