I have a 5 minute timer on my map. But I want originally it to be a 2 minute timer. Basically there are two timers. First one is 2 minutes and if after it expires the 5 minute timer is turned on permanently. Ideas? Thanks :D |

i dont quite follow you.. you want the 2 min timer to count, then start a 5.. i dont see what the problem is, when the first expires, create a new timer and set it to 5 |

You can create a single timer variable for this purpose. In your map initialization, create a 2 minute one shot timer. Then have a trigger that detects when that timer ends, destroy the timer, create a new one that is a recurring 5 minute timer, and turn the trigger off. |

Aren't you supposed to say that cannot happen, it's impossible to do? :D Rwxr-xr-x is an evil man. Watch out for him. He knows al lthe triggering secrets. |

I thought it was pretty straight forward... |

Simplest method is as follows, create a timer that only happens one time. Make a second trigger to catch when this timer expires, then create your second timer (repeating or not it does not matter). Make a third trigger to catch when the second timer expires, and then do whatever you wish. More then likely you will want each timer to have its own timer window. |
