[Lazarus] How to program with time in milliseconds?

[Junior]

Travian is an online game using a browser, in my project, the game will 
be a desktop with the same features of Travian program, but with 
internet access.
The multimedia part will benefit by seeking the images, sounds and 
videos on your local computer.
