TIMER HELP

HI IM UNCLEAR ON HOW TO SET UP A TIMER THAT WOULD COUNT SECONDS AND SPLIT SECONDS.

ID LIKE THE TIMER TO START AS GAME STARTS THEN COUNT HOW MANY SECONDS I SURVIVED IN GAME .

SO IF I DIE THE TIMER WOULD RESET.

THANKS HELP WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED.

i have got the timer to work, but it continues to count even thou i "die"

so my question is how do i get timer to stop when i die, and start when i restart game

plz help

You say you got timer to work. I presume you storing the seconds in a variable.

So when you die

Save your time

Set variable to 0 again.

restart game

You can also add a condition called pause....

Variable "pauseTimer" = 0

so your timer counts when condition "pauseTimer" = 0

When you character dies. Set pauseTimer = 1

That'll work too

dude im not even sure my timer correct.....

iv created a text object

iv got global variable timer = 0

system every tick timer .. set text to (int(time))

this adds time up in seconds.

how do i store that time, or set the variable to zero

Is it useful to set "time" to integer ? Isn't it already an integer ?

By the way, you just have to do :

system | start of layout -> set timer to 0.

hey coin,

i went -> system -> start of layout,

but under what would i find "set timer"

or where would i find option to set timer

"system -> start of layout" is the condition.

The full action "path" is : "system -> global & local variables -> set value -> timer : 0"

thanks

but for some reason it doesn't work, iv set it like that before.

as soon as i press play and the game(layout) continues

the seconds continue as well

Have a look at this

I would suggest reading the manual. And learning the basics. Do a few examples, go through a few tutorials.

You have to learn how to use the software.

Here is another one to look at.

You will find many many examples on timers, in tutorials, and in forum. Search

thanks man
