How do I create delay in an action?

[3mptysl]

I have searched and I have come to the conclusion that I need to use a TickHandler but I don't know how to implement it in the context of my action, I need that when a player uses an item in a block, it removes the item on the fly and, after some time passes, spawns at the coordinates of the block.

I don't know what a TickHandler is, but you can store the stack in the tile entity, after a duration (maybe just an int field increment every tick), and spawn after time expires.

Check BlockEntityTicker, or ITickableTileEntity in older versions (1.16/1.18? I can't remember.)
