Whats wrong with this? I want a message to be displayed when a timer expires.. - Events - - Map initizialation - Actions - - Wait 2.00 seconds - - Set Timer - (Last started timer) - - Countdown Timer - Start timer as a One-shot timer that will expire in 15.00 seconds - - Countdown Timer - Create a timer window for Timer with the title Timer expires in.. ---- - Events - - Time - Timer expires - Actions - - Game - Display to (all players) the text: Timer has ended |

Switch places with the Countdown Timer - triggers. You start it after it is displayed. |

Hes setting the variable before he creates it, and then creating the window. Dude, try this: - Events - - Map initizialation - Actions - - Wait 2.00 seconds - - Countdown Timer - Start timer as a One-shot timer that will expire in 15.00 seconds - - Set Timer - (Last Started Timer) - - Countdown Timer - Create a timer window for Timer with the title Timer expires in.. ---- - Events - - Time - Timer expires - Actions - - Game - Display to (all players) the text: Timer has ended |

its the event that is not triggering the action. map initilization is when the game is loading, then u have to wait for other players. so u have to change the event for it to work. or if u want to set the countdown timer into a variable, then u would do that during the map initalization. and then use the elapsed time to set it off. but i dont know y u would need to use an intiger. |
